Mid-summer, 2020, we hopped in the car and drove to Nice, France. It was in a lull of COVID so we were able to walk around without masks for the most part. It was amazing to go to the "hip" tourist spots and be one of the only ones there, just enjoying the view. <sigh> now the tourists are all over the place in my own city and it is annoying af.

Off season travel is great for exactly this reason. Well, being bound to school holidays limits your options. One thing worth to remind ourselves of when travelling or seeing tourists were we live: We are either locals, but at much more places we clearly are the visitors. The trick is to behave like a visitor and not like tourists being only that many letters removed from a terrorist.
