Perspective from our San Francisco Tours

As I listened to speakers from both party conventions, I realized that I had a perspective from our San Francisco Tours. Ultimately, as we see on our San Francisco Food Tours, the choices we make on a daily basis affect us not only years from now, but also affect on a daily basis. At the same time, our short-term may cost us more in the long run.

Every time we make a purchase that is not local, we help to eliminate that product locally. In other words, every time we purchase food from overseas, it has a number of effects. Local producers go under, so that product is not produced. More often than not, the product is being produced by cheap labor, so we help to encourage exploitation of labor in other countries. And local jobs go away. Even though the product may have been less expensive at the store, the real cost has been way higher.

As we  see on our San Francisco Tours, neighborhoods are created by people making choices. Left to their choices, larger chain stores would take over the local artisans that we see on our San Francisco Food Tours and shut them down.

As we see on our San Francisco Tours, we that it is that variety that gives a vibrancy to neighborhoods.  The people in the neighborhoods we see on our San Francisco Food Tours cover the spectrum. What they have in common is that we see each other on a daily basis. They know the other people are just people and their differences enhance their lives.

When I heard anyone talking about who and what to fear, it reminded about how people in the neighborhoods on our San Francisco Tours have made the choice to enjoy our differences. Just like the people in these areas have made the choices to buy locally.  

On our San Francisco Food Tours,  we see how our lives can enhanced by our choices.  It is the choice to understand the idea that every time we allow others to exploited, we end up opening ourselves to be exploited.
