I think that those who don't make Szanton's constant adjustments lose the plot sooner and suffer greater cultural fatigue, because they view the whole world through the narrow frame of their own cultural bias and thus never develop any empathy with the people who they are travelling amongst...they understand nothing that happens during their journey and leave with a bunch of false impressions and without learning anything useful.
Examples are: 1.almost all colonial powers during the age of european expansion.
2. most tourists
