But seriously: I don’t want to gatekeep anyone here either, just found this meme funny and related to cartographyanarchy community so wanted to crosspost.

Take this post as a joke, not a statement :)
But also, like you said: can’t say you know a place and culture very well if you only visited a few cities and stayed a week on a continent.

Yeah there’s no one right way to vacation - if someone just has a week or two or three and they want to hop around more power to them.
