Abstract
Case studies of cultural travel in Hawaii and Brazil are compared and contrasted with a focus on the impact on the local economy. The paper discusses notions of localism and globalism. There is a discussion on developing a model of economic and cultural sustainability where the benefits of globalism accrue to the local economy and support the local culture to the highest extent possible.
