“Gladly not all tourists are so demanding… Some of them do realize that being an honorable tourist can involve little effort, money, or disruption.” This amusing 3-minute short film is fantastic! Citizen Tourist is a short film creation from the Porto, Portugal-based design house FAVO Studio and it’s just delightful. Take a few moments to enjoy this and pass it on to others.

It’s short & sweet, and hits all the right notes. Click play. // Continue Reading ›
