Two incidents in popular tourist destinations highlight a pattern in Russian tourists’ behavior. In Thailand, a woman packed food and hotel supplies in her luggage as if they were hers to take. In Europe, another traveler tried to bypass rules for tax-free shopping and reacted with anger when confronted. Different places, same approach: treating access as permission and rules as mere suggestion. In the latest episode of Break The Fake, Benjamin Lee takes a closer look at these incidents and what they say about Russian culture.
