(4:40) In my garage, I have a picture of this very scenic view. Unfortunately, it's an advertisement for Benson and Hedges, and besides the cigarettes, there's a trendy looking couple obscuring the view. Still, it tells me how fashionable the place was at the time.
Ah, Santorini before the social media “influencers”. A better time, a better place. They were right about the tourist boom in 1987, it did change the place a lot. I’m envious of people who got to visit it before it did.
@@MagicNash89 sure and that is a good thing. But it’s important to realise tourism can have negative effects and certain elements of tourism have very detrimental effects.
