Definition of the word: Tourist

Tourist - Much like a traveler, but with a more expensive camera and a map tucked in to no fewer than one pocket. A person predisposed to paying too much for guidance, company, services and star maps. Also a person who is not only predisposed to being robbed by locals, but one who truly deserves it like no other, mostly for ogling the impoverished of the local welfarescape, despite the indigenous folks’ best efforts to escape such status.
