FAKE HOLIDAY

 Zilla van den Born and Social Media Authenticity

Zilla van den Born, a Dutch graphic design student, created a fake 5-week vacation to Southeast Asia in 2014 as a university project. She convinced everyone, including her parents, that she was traveling through Thailand, Cambodia, and Laos while never leaving Amsterdam. The project aimed to explore how people filter what they show on social media and the gap between online presentation and reality.

LESSER-KNOWN ENGLISH SPEAKING COUNTRIES

Lesser-known English-speaking countries typically share these common traits: 

• Colonial Heritage: Most are former British colonies that inherited English through colonial rule and education systems. 
• Small Scale: They have small populations and limited global influence compared to major English-speaking nations. 
• Geographic Isolation: Many are islands or geographically separated regions (Caribbean, Malta, Belize, Guyana). 
• Economic Vulnerability: They rely heavily on tourism, agriculture, or niche industries, making them economically fragile. 
• Cultural Fusion: They blend English language and institutions with strong local traditions, creating unique hybrid societies. 
• Strategic but Limited: Often occupy important geographic positions but lack the resources to fully capitalize on these advantages.
