Olympic games legacy

The Olympic games has been long associated with countries, countries, organisation and have a lasting impact on the lives of many people. An academic standpoint examines the long-term impacts and legacies of hosting the Olympic games and the trend which shows a cycle of the same countries hosting the Olympic games (Ritchie et al., 2020).

From economical perspective, scholars continue to research the impacts of hosting the Olympics on the economy of the host nation. Studies have shown that there are significant increases in areas of job creation, tourism and infrastructure development (Zawadzki, 2022). Research has also been conducted on the long-term economic benefits and drawbacks on the host city and country. Such include displacement of local communities and financial burden on the local economy (Duignan, 2019). Further studies reveal urban transformation, regeneration, development of sports facilities and revitalization of neighborhoods (Zembri-Mary, 2023). The academic perspective on the legacy of the Olympic games also examines the sustainability of the games through the use of sustainable infrastructure and renewable resources.

Additionally, academies explore the legacy of sports participation and the development of grassroot programs in the host city and country. Examination of the cultural and social legacies of the Olympic games tends to critically be analysed in this space.

From a media standpoint, the Olympic games tend to generate significant interest and attention. Both traditional and modern media focus on the impact and lasting effects of the Olympic games on host cities and countries. Studies have shown prior to the games, media coverage surrounds preparation showcasing the construction of new venues, rehabilitation of old venues and infrastructure improvements. During the games, the coverage surrounds broadcast feeds, interviews with athletes and expert analysis on the games (Smith-Ditizio & Smith, 2023). The media is instrumental in connecting the Olympic games to its global audience. It enriches fan experience through the capture of emotions, triumphs and success of athletes.

After the games, the media plays a role in examining the legacy left behind through the games. Discussions are held on the economic impacts, investments and the boost to local economies. The media also shares light on the cultural and social legacies of the games through the impact of tourism, culture and community development (Ribeiro et al., 2021).

Overall, both the academic and media perspectives are essential in shaping public opinion, perception and understanding of the impacts of Olympic games. Both perspectives provide an avenue for officials, athletes, teams and experts to share their stories, insights and analysis ensuring the legacy of the Olympic games is well and thoroughly examined.

Sudbury Up Here

A turning point?

On my way to Toronto I came to Sudbury. At first it was a strange encounter with only a nickel mine and a huge science center to enrich my afternoon. But then I gradually fell in love with this little town 400 Kilometers north of Toronto. It is small enough to be easily accessible, but there are things going on up here.

The cityscape boasts a large variety of murals and an annual independent art and music festival that just unraveled itself in front of me for the start of a good weekend. On the other hand Sudbury seems to be a turning point in my travel. I have completed an epic road trip across this beautiful country. I’ve come a long way, baby. The next stop in Toronto will hold a meeting with an old friend from Stuttgart that comes to visit me for a week.

I am stumbling about the next steps. Will I sell the van after that yet? Start a new more serious photographic project with the goal to finally publish something or just enjoy the life of a backpacker on the beaches of this world for a few more months before the reality sets back in? So many options and yet I have to take a decision.

I truly enjoyed the freedom and vastness of Canada. This could be a country to live in. The weather might not be optimal but the people are liberal and friendly enough to compensate for all this flaws. Nature-wise it has it all.

One thing became more and more clear to me during the last 2 weeks. Whenever I am with someone it is an option to outdo what everybody else is doing. Be more extreme, more adventurous, more knowledgeable or show more endurance. This used to be a huge part of my identity. But when it comes down to being all by myself I start to feel a new dimension of this. Could I be striving for all these achievements to mask my own fear of being insufficient? Am I fearful that nobody would accept me with all my flaws when I’d stop to outdo everyone else all the time? Or would that result in a more approachable and accessible me? New impressions and interesting thoughts that came up by living out of my comfort zone.

I think being all by myself in this somehow distant but yet lovely small town provoked more thoughts than I would have expected it to. This is not the end. But it sure is a turning point.
