Do or Don’t?

September 28, 2011

Have you seen this site? A little guide to blending into some top cities around the world. It’s equal parts snarky and hysterical. What do you think, is it a do or a don’t?

I happen to think it’s fine for tourists to act like tourists if that’s what they are, but the site is a funny little insight into these cities and their hipsters and what it takes to act like a local. And I think if you strip away the silly commentary, there are probably some really useful tips under there!

So far, they’ve hit New York, London and Singapore and are working on Paris and Sydney. They make New York sound particularly hipster-y, which made me chuckle, even though I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a real life hipster. Does Dublin have hipsters? I’m not even sure I’m hip enough to know! Ha!

What about you? Do you try to blend in where you’re vacationing? Does it even cross your mind?
