Self-Actualization through
Leisure and Tourism activities
Body:
L+T acitivities can help to
"feel" yourself again, to re-discover
your body as a source of self-identity.
In post-industrial societies
you are supposed to "do" something with
and for your body, to make it more beautiful, more
presentable, ready for competition.
Mind:
The same process is also taking
place as far as the "mind", the non-physical
existence of an individuum, is concerned.
Learning something for and about
yourself is competing with the idea of learning
something "useful", "use" your
vacation to gain "cultural capital" (Bourdieu),
albeit through showing off as a "Schnäppchenjäger".
