This photograph is a selfie I took with members of Tourism Studies on the Ponte Vecchio. Some of the most thoughtful discussions we engaged in examined typical tourist reactions, like taking selfies, by using theory we had read in class. For the most part we concluded that taking a selfie is a way for a tourist to connect to the place they are visiting, to prove to themselves and to others that they were really there.
