What happened to authenticity? When people start comparing some areas of Santorini with Disneyland, it is not a good sign.
This episode is about the impact that overtourism has on the local culture of Santorini.
Locals highlight how important is to share with tourists the true richness of the island, for them to learn about its culture, its past, its traditions, its arts and crafts, its music, its essence. We also learn about the damage tourism has on the social fabric of Santorini, and how locals try to keep a sense of belonging to the island.
