No Ambition and Fuck All Interest
Uncountable noun:
Tourists who use only a travel guide such as the
Lonely Planet to determine their itinerary. Hotels, guesthouses, restaurants and destinations. These
may be decided entirely by recommendations
made by the book.
Example: A restaurant as recommended by that WKTG was so crowded that you couldn’t get a
table. The NAFIs were literally standing there waiting and having the cheek to look vaguely irritated by the whole
thing; it was heaving. Next
door was a perfectly good restaurant; the staff were all polite, the surroundings were comfortable and the food was okay but it was virtually empty. There were only two people in there.
Example: A friend and I walked into a new town armed with our WKTG. It recommended a guesthouse so we went there. It was so crowded with NAFIs though it was unpleasant. It
may have been a nice place at one
time, but after being mentioned in the WKTG it had become overpopulated, noisy, dirty and unfriendly. Just walking minutes down the
road we came upon a row of perfectly good guesthouses; cheap,
clean and quiet.
If you are in a tourist town then sit back and watch the NAFIs as they walk in, faces glued to those pages, their destination
Based Entirely Around Nothing other Than On A Single Travel book, (which loosely spells ‘beans on toast’). In their determination to find that great recommendation a NAFI
will go past numerous other places that could certainly do with the
money and are perfectly okay. Get a few beers with your mates and check ‘em out as they go by. Great fun!
