    1. If tourists didn’t drive up prices of houses and flats, wouldn’t developers do by just holding and never renting them like in every other country?

      Don’t the people who own the Airbnb’s have some blame/responsibility? Or is it too hard to pick them out?

      I fucking love how this happened twice (or thrice) and now it’s a thing.

      Barcelonian here, we need the local institutions to protect our neighbourhoods from gentrification and tourism transformation. Blaming the tourists isn’t a viable option, but it’s in their interest to missdirect our opinion in order to keep cashing on it.

      Also, I’d love some refreshing water pistols in this heat. But I’m not a guiri πŸ™
