Trouble in Paradise?

Abstract- The focus of this presentation is to highlight the troubles that tourism can bring to small tourist destinations. Sometimes tourists who travel to certain destinations fail to take proper precautions and do their research, which can often lead to dangerous or unfortunate situations for the locals and tourists. In this project, we will be looking at Oahu, Hawai’i and how tourism affected the land and the locals. After researching, we found that tourism for Hawai’i cause a lot of problems and dangerous situations. This project is not to bash on tourists but to bring awareness for small tourist destinations like Hawai’i. We will be focusing on economy, society/culture, and environment.

It can be hard to travel anywhere on a budget, but Japan has many options for traveling and touring for cheap that are overlooked.
