People living in Tenerife are being forced to live in tent villages because of overtourism (Image: Getty) A waiter working on the island of Tenerife has said they’ve been forced to move into a tent village because of tourism on the island. Miguel de Abreu Freitas, 63, who has lived and worked on the island for 18 years is one of several people working in the hospitality industry who say they have been forced into the makeshift village because of overtourism . Other residents said they moved into the village because they were priced out of their current accommodation because it was being converted into tourist accommodation.
Their complaints come at a time when tensions in the Canary Islands and the Balearic Islands are reaching record levels as locals protest over the impact of tourists on the region. function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.createElement('script');el.
