I dunno, I live in a little Catalan village that has suffered a bit from "España Vaciada", life here is good and both me and my other half have integrated pretty well ... but the house next to us has been bought by a German who rents it out on Airbnb and TBH it's rather shit.

I'm fully on board with "tourists go home". If we get more holiday let's in the village we're thinking of moving more inland.
