Abstract

This paper aims to explore (1) what kind of everyday materials in rural villages attract Australian tourists to visit; (2) the nature of the dynamic tensions that occur during the interactions; and (3) how these create reflexivity with regard to the notion of home. Employing ethnographic interviews, participating in tour packages, and observing the interactions between Australian travellers and local people in rural villages of Java and Bali, the project attempts to reveal the interactional experiences that occur in the everyday life of rural village settings. Results, first, the Australians identified home, street, natural surroundings, and people as the everyday materials for them to see how others live their life. Secondly, the perceptions of pressure to buy appear during the dynamic process of interactions. Thirdly, the visit to the rural villages of Indonesia become a comparative journey to enjoy the privilege of ‘home,’ while the Australians are being 'away.' As a conclusion, theoritical and practical understanding contribute to capture the specific market of Australians and how this market interacts with a specific space in Indonesia.

回家和离开:澳大利亚游客在印度尼西亚的日常乡村生活消费

本文旨在探讨(1)乡村中什么样的日常物品会吸引澳大利亚游客前来参观;(2)相互作用过程中发生的动态张力的性质;(3)这些如何产生关于家的概念的反身性。该项目采用人种学访谈，参与旅游套餐，并观察澳大利亚游客与爪哇和巴厘岛农村居民之间的互动，试图揭示农村日常生活中发生的互动体验。结果:首先，澳大利亚人把家、街道、自然环境和人作为他们观察别人如何生活的日常材料。其次，在互动的动态过程中出现了购买压力的感知。第三，访问印度尼西亚的乡村成为一种享受“家”特权的比较之旅，而澳大利亚人则是“在外”。作为结论，理论和实践的理解有助于捕捉澳大利亚的特定市场，以及这个市场如何与印度尼西亚的特定空间相互作用。

期刊介绍： Tourism, Culture & Communication is the longest established international refereed journal that is dedicated to the cultural dimensions of tourism. The editors adopt a purposefully broad scope that welcomes readers and contributors from diverse disciplines and who are receptive in a wide variety of research methods. While potential cultural issues and identities are unlimited, there is a requirement that their consideration should relate to the tourism and hospitality domain. Tourism, Culture & Communication provides readers with multidisciplinary perspectives that consider topics and fields extending beyond national and indigenous cultures as they are traditionally understood and recognized. Coverage may extend to issues such as cultural dimensions of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), gender and tourism, managing tourists with disabilities, sport tourism, or age-specific tourism. Contributions that draw upon the communications literature to explain the tourism phenomenon are also particularly welcome. Beyond the focus on culture and communications, the editors recognize the important interrelationships with economies, society, politics, and the environment. The journal publishes high-quality research and applies a double-blind refereeing process. Tourism, Culture & Communication consists of main articles, major thematic reviews, position papers on theory and practice, and substantive case studies. A reports section covers specific initiatives and projects, “hot topics,” work-in-progress, and critical reviews.
