In defense of being a tourist in your hometown

I live in Edinburgh (Scotland) and yes, it’s as beautiful as people say but I think it's easy to get bogged down in all the negatives of a place. Edinburgh, like a lot of places, is prone to over-tourism. It’s gone from being busy in August, to busy in the summer, to basically all year round. This makes it hard to navigate the city and pushes locals to stay where they are, but I implore people to explore where they live.
