To my fellow Germans: If you show some international visitors around our country, keep in mind that they might not be as used to walking as you are. Once, I showed an American visitor around the Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe in #Kassel , and at one point she stopped, caught her breath, and asked me: "How do you manage to walk uphill and talk at the same time?" #Germany #tourism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bergpark_Wilhelmsh%C3%B6he

Several #tourism stakeholders met in Brussels for the first network meeting of the #EU Code of Conduct for Online Ratings and Reviews for Tourism Accommodation. The initiative, co-created by the EU and industry partners, aims to improve transparency and reliability of online reviews, ensuring ratings reflect genuine guest experiences. Signatories include Booking com, Expedia, Tripadvisor, Airbnb, HolidayCheck, HOTREC, and others. #European Commissioner Apostolos Tzitzikostas said the Code strengthens trust in tourism, helping travellers make informed choices and supporting businesses across the European tourism ecosystem. https://transport.ec.europa.eu/news-events/news/reliable-online-reviews-tourism-accommodation-commission-welcomes-signatories-eu-code-conduct-2026-02-25_en

'Karen has no criminal record. She is a grandmother who spent eight years working as an admin assistant at a primary school before her retirement...So why did ICE detain her, and keep her locked up for so long? A possible answer began to emerge over the weeks she was incarcerated. As Karen got to know the guards at the Northwest ICE Processing Center where she was held, she kept hearing the same thing from them: that ICE officers are paid a bonus every time they detain someone' #ice #usPol #tourism #immigration #prisonIndustrialComplex https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/feb/21/karen-newton-valid-visa-detained-ice
