Guide: Honoring the Source: 10+ Tips for Mindfully, Responsibly, and Intentionally Approaching Storytellers in the Tourism Context

Guidance on how to build ethical relationships with local storytellers that connect people to places and enhance travel experiences without exploitation.

In the tourism context, stories shared by local people are a powerful opportunity to turn the average trip into a truly unforgettable experience. When travelers learn from and have conversations with those who have different life experiences and perspectives than their own, it has the potential to shift the way people understand, interpret, and approach the world around them.

However, it is essential to approach these opportunities with care — both when you first invite people to share their stories with travelers and when travelers are in the presence of the storytellers.

This guide offers 10+ suggestions for ethically approaching storytellers so that everyone feels safe and respected while building relationships and connecting with each other.
