The images we initially create are impressionist mosaics feeding off what we’ve heard or seen second hand about that place. Socially exchanged images are far more accurate than those created by marketing machines. If you’re a tourist that’s fallen in love with a tourist location because you’ve seen it in a tourist mag, chances are you only know an idealistic, heightened version of the spectrum of realities that are actually experience-able in that place. A friend’s description may be more truthful, since it’s unbiased, but is again an impression created through someone else’s lens, at a particular point in time.
