    It seems a bit outdated, the ukrainians who are in russia right now I don’t think they do tourism exactly

        For me as a German, yes. I dont go to another country just to see more German people.

          To be fair, I don’t see anything wrong with simply seeing other countries, so I don’t know how one would solve that problem if Germans like travelling a lot. Do they tend to do anything people associate with bad tourists?

        Thanks! In fact I thought Moldova was really poor and small, so this is surprising.

          I wonder if it’s counting stuff we colloquially wouldn’t think of as “tourism” at first glance, like visiting friends and relatives across the border.

    I grew up rather poor in Germany, and when I learned as a kid most families travel abroad at least once a year I was baffled (I had only been on one vacation abroad my whole childhood). With German tourists being so prevalent, it definitely goes back to being able to travel being a sign of wealth, status and affluence that has become culturally entrenched for everyone. Germany being a central and dominatingly rich country within the EU certainly adds to that.
