God, I am being sarcastic as possible!!!
/SSSSS
I grew up on a touristic city. This is a consequence of exploiting the touristic side for economic growth. Some people do not want to love in a museum, but others want to make money out of it. The ones making money may be locals or from outside the city.
And obviously Venice has been exploited to the max, so they better tone down their touristic sector and support people trying to live there. I am sire that also rent there is astronomic and people commute in and out of the city
Someday it won’t be just the Venetian that will be fed up.
Do you know how much it cost rent there???? I wish i could afford to live there
