Document Summary

One of the paradoxes of otherness is that in travel each conceives the other to be a foreigner. It has nothing to do with distance or the exotic. The whole point of travel is discovery, and few experiences can match the satisfaction of such an extraordinary discovery near home. Theroux voluntary apartheid that keeps tourists and locals separate. Tourists always labour under a time constraint and are the unwilling victims of cost efficiency; so they stay together, they travel within a narrow compass, and they tend to stay put, once they have arrived. Tourists are contained, partly for their own benefit, partly for the benefit of locals.
