It seems like every minute we are inundated with some form of global tragedy, conflict or disruption. I’ve had to stop watching most news sites because most of the time it’s just anxiety. There are also some great things happening and we are seeing glimpses of exclusive luxury tourist destinations that are heavily visited according to Google and of course most recently “Earth Day”. I feel some fear about getting out and enjoying some places before we can no longer move as freely as we might be used to. I had a few places in mind, and while the CIA travel site that gives travel facts around the world is great for factual overviews and important tidbits, I worked with my friends in the research community to put together a quick comparison chart before seeing where I could get a stamp!

The Renomowanekasyno team prepared a table for me, illustrating how different countries are innovating and implementing policies that ensure tourism remains a sustainable business that respects both local culture and the environment. Each destination’s approach is tailored to its unique challenges and requirements, reflecting a global shift towards responsible business practices travel consciously. If you remember the history, in 1980 one of the Beatles was even banned from Japan for what WE would call a minor infraction… investigate!
