    El individuo de hoy en día acaba siendo en exceso consciente de su apariencia o forma, ya que están constantemente reflejadas en los espejos digitales de las redes sociales. Tenemos tendencia a construir nuestras imágenes según la forma en que queremos que otros nos vean y poco a poco el límite entre nuestra imagen y nuestra identidad se pierde. En esta perspectiva, viajar también se convierte en un campo de consumo presuntuoso – y las redes sociales, en su escaparate.

    The self-conscious individual of our contemporaneity is excessively conscious of her/his appearance or manner, as it is constantly reflected in the digital mirrors of the online social network. We tend to build our images in the way that we want others to see us, hence slowly we losing the boundary between our images and our identities. Within this perspective, traveling also becomes an item of conspicuous consumption – and the online social network, its display.
