I was in Zermatt 2 weekends ago walking around the town when I suddenly heard behind me "Hello and welcome to my channel".
Turn around, see a posse of people around a guy pointing a serious camera at his face. I immediately felt bad for him, it felt so unnatural and the realization that this "vacation" was a job for him did not make me envious at all.
My wife and I instead found a bar inhabited by the local service workers and had a great time hearing their stories.
Similar experience yesterday in Coco Rico in Val D'Isere. There seemed to be two types of people: those who were there to have a good time, and those who were there to look good on Instagram or YouTube. (I was in the latter category, obvs.)
