We all know how exciting it is to be able to explore a whole new world in a whole new country. The food, the culture, the people - they are all so interesting and beautiful, we just can't stop ourselves from taking pictures, uploading them on social media with captions that help reminds us whom we've met and what we've done that day.
But on the other hand, there are people who need these pictures for exposure, image, and business, i.e the people that can die if they don't have at least a few thousand likes on their pictures. For some reason, these people can't seem to notice how people are so annoyed, disgusted and embarrassed about their actions.
Brighthumanity loves and appreciates nature and culture. We truly condone these actions and hope that the perpetrators and culprits that are not yet held responsible can be found soon.
