Tourist go home! This week's reading, from the UK Independent, discusses the 'dark side' of tourism in Barcelona. Specifically, the author - a Spanish citizen - evaluates the social, economic and infrastructural pressure tourism is exerting on the city.  Is it a case of too much of a good thing? And is this the case in Salamanca too?

Questions:
The author mentions the phrase 'tourism phobia'. What does this mean?
Similarly the author suggests he and other locals feel a kind of 'desperate isolation' in their own city. What does this mean and do you think this is a apt description?
