Thesis (M.A.)--University of Alberta (Canada), 2007.

Using travel memoirs concerning second homes (cottages) and trips to previous homes in Asia, this study argues for a new theoretical basis for investigations of tourism, home, and mobility. Whereas previous studies leave tourism in isolated locations, reliant upon material infrastructures and marked by differences that are articulated in comparison to a distant home, this study argues for the importance of immaterial factors and the inherent mobility of tourism and home. Intangible structures of spatialization support and shape touristic engagements, and virtual places significantly affect and motivate touristic practices and mobilities. Furthermore, the idea of tourism as an engagement with change cannot be separated from the mobility and transit that introduce and make possible articulations of difference. Tourism and home must therefore be understood as mobile, possible in many spaces, and situated within networks of interconnected spaces and places that are continually recreated in relationship to each other.
