Many insights have been gained by their studies of how places are shaped and identity constructed within the political and economic landscapes of tourism. Some critical geographers even suggest that a geography of tourism must not emphasize only the static nature of places and positions within tourism (for example ‘hosts’ and ‘guests’ as ‘fixed’ in their meaning and interaction), but recognize the importance of movement and fluidity, the ‘meeting’ of peoples that takes place (McRae 2003). McRae even suggests that the Saidian notion of ‘exile’ is worth exploring for a better understanding of the relations between tourists and locals and the ‘crossing and containment that is embedded in the core practices and politics of the contemporary world’ (2003:246).

Edward H. Huijbens Examiner: dr. ir. Martijn Duineveld Wageningen University and Research Department of Environmental Science Cultural Geography Chair Group Master of Science in Tourism, Society and Environment i ACKNOWLEDGEMENT Tourism has been an inseparable aspect of my life, starting with having a passion for travelling until I decided to take a big step to study about it back when I was in vocational high school. I would say, learning tourism was one of the best decisions I have ever made in my life considering opportunities and experiences which I encountered on the process. I could recall that four years ago, I was saying to myself that finishing bachelor would be my last academic-related goal in my life. However, today, I know that I was wrong. With the fact that the world and the industry are progressing and I raise my self-awareness that I know nothing, here I am today taking my words back and as I am heading towards the final chapter from one of the most exciting journeys in my life – pursuing a master degree in Wageningen, the Netherlands. Never say never. In completing this thesis, I received countless assistances and helps from people that I would like to mention. Firstly, I would not be at this point in my life without the blessing and prayers from my parents, grandma, and family.
