Abstract

Place affinities and lifestyle mobilities are inseparable and essential aspects of quality-of-life in tourism. Tourism lies at the very core of modern quality-of-life because it is an increasingly prosaic realm within which people seek out and negotiate meaning and build identity into their lives. The modern globalized age has made the circulation of people, ideas, and goods a ubiquitous aspect of the human condition and empowers many people to seek out a great many places as part of living the good life. This applies to tourists actively engaged in travel to visit destinations as well as those who reside in or make a living on the character of such destinations and other peoples’ desires to visit them and those whose local quality-of-life is impacted in some way by tourists and other lifestyle migrants’ involvement in such places. The chapter discusses place, place attachment, and its relationship to quality-of-life; examines how touristic relationships to place afford individuals opportunities to act out desired lifestyle aspirations as a way to enhance quality-of-life; and explores how enhanced mobility has transformed perceptions of place and the implications this has for tourism and quality-of-life.
