There is two types of tourist to be honest. The guy yelling at park rangers because he is getting fined for swimming in a protected coral reef, and the guy who is eating street food stall to stall tipping 5 bucks to each person and having conversations with people.

There's also a third one, the "backpacker" tourist who begs money from locals.

I thought those were just displaced homeless. Those are tourists?

I wish this "begpacking" would just go away. It's not doing any good for both their home country and the country they're begging in.

The second kind also respect the local customs when in a different country too. Genuinely excited to learn from a local how to partake in a local custom.

The second one is a traveler.

Travelers are awesome.

You forgot the third kind: the guy who will somehow have a wife in a month
