tourist hopper

A woman in a foreign country who hops tourist to tourist.

Commonly on dating apps a tourist hopper will be friendlier, and make it seem like she is looking to date. Her main goal is to get free meals, drinks, and w.e luxuries she can.
Patrick: Is John going out with that girl Erica from tinder tonight? Izak: She suggested him to meet her at a fancy restaurant, then go out for drinks after. Patrick: He should be careful she sounds like a tourist hopper.

Anime tourist

A person that only watches the most popular anime or any anime that becomes trendy via memes on other social media platforms. They do not engage or explore any other anime or other Japanese media outside of the major, well-known anime and often bandwagon on the show's fandom. They're only in the fandom and watch the show for the hype and nothing else.
Person 1: My friend swore that he is now a weeb despite him only watching Jujutsu Kaisen... I asked if he could name other anime that aired this season, but he gave me no response. He's just an anime tourist.

Plasma Tourist

One who visits multiple plasma donation companies in their area for the purpose of the highest financial payout, rather than stay at the same company for low pay but convenience. Example includes taking advantage of new donor bonuses, then leaving when it ends and waiting for an email to come back for the promise of a higher payout. Some donors will leave (typically six months) to be considered a new donor again - which is not the policy for every company, some will only offer a returning donor bonus. Never assume one will be labelled a new donor.

The opportunity/motive to be a plasma tourist depends on availability of companies in their area, the distance to and from the center, the local supply/demand, the poverty and cost of living conditions of the area, and if the donor is in need of finances sooner than later. Once a donor breaks their ghosting streak by donating, without a bonus, the company typically has no incentive to offer one. It's reasonable to assume plasma companies keep track of how often a donor visits, the pay they receive, and adjust bonuses in their system.

Depending on location/company: Plasma companies will gradually increase their bonus offer every 1-2 months. Ranging from $15-$60 per session, or even $25-200 extra per month. Some will offer a monthly total, while others may offer a single session. If the location is convenient, the donor may accept the base + bonus and decide to donate once or twice more to stay within their minimum acceptable pay.
A plasma tourist involves being enrolled at multiple companies and delaying their visits for the highest pay because their time and health is more valuable than quick cash.

How come nobody can agree to what a tourist trap actually is?

Jhalmuri Tourists

The term "Jhalmuri Tourist" refers to tourists who travel on a minimal budget, often using their own vehicles and avoiding expenditures at local restaurants by consuming their own food, typically light snacks such as Jhalmuri.
