Major trend in world tourism development
since 1980s: Establishment of Second Homes
- temporary (Trailer, Weekend
Home, Holiday Hut)
- semi-permanent or permanent
(Scenic place, city apartment, retirement)
Examples: Spain, Venice, New
York, Eurostar, School or Recycling plant

Second
home users might often be outside of the UNWTO definition
of a tourist.
But still they are behaving in many
ways like a tourist and have similar transportation
and consumption patterns and needs.
Please
form three groups and discuss what differences and what
similarities you can see between "normal"
locals and second home dwellers.
After
20 minutes please give short presentation of results.
