Copy Paste Planet: How Overtourism is Erasing the Soul of our Cities
Are you tired of traveling the world only to find the same coffee shops, selfie spots, and souvenir stalls in every city?
In Copy-Paste Planet, Robert Flood explores how overtourism, globalization, and digital culture are transforming once-unique cities into indistinguishable destinations. From Venice to Kyoto, Reykjavik to Barcelona, beloved urban centers are being hollowed out—losing their identity, community, and charm. This sharp and eye-opening short read pulls back the curtain on how mass tourism, global franchises, and social media-driven travel are erasing local culture in favor of profit and predictability.
Whether you're a frequent flyer, a digital nomad, or a concerned local, this book offers insight, urgency, and hope. Discover how we can still travel responsibly, protect authenticity, and bring meaning back to the modern journey.
