How I Am REALLY Dealing With Tourists and Traffic While Living in Gatlinburg
Thatâs the million dollar question, isnât it? Many people who live here warn others about making it their home. In fact, I heard it a lot from people we associated with in Ohio. They told us that you donât wonât to live in a tourist town. Like, what would they know about that? Itâs too crowded; itâs too loud; itâll be a pain to get around. All of that may be true, but thereâs a secret to getting around the aspects of living in a tourist town like Gatlinburg. I hope to cover everything about how weâre dealing with life, not as tourists, but as locals near the most visited national park in the country.
If youâve followed me long enough, you already know I work at one of the most popular attractions in Gatlinburg. Over a period of seven months, Iâve adjusted to life on the inside of dealing with touristsâlike I was as recently as ten months agoâon an every day basis. I say âevery day,â not because I work seven days a week, but because Iâm always walking around in town, even on my days off. Yes, itâs part of what I do. So, do I still enjoy it? WellâŠ
