Between Welcome and Wariness: Germans in Mallorca — What's Really Happening

Answer

What is everyday life like in Palma compared with quieter parts of Mallorca?

Palma usually feels more open, busier and more international, with many visitors, cafés and conversations in different languages. In quieter places such as Santanyí, people may notice changes more strongly, especially when tourist flows affect local routines. The same island can therefore feel very different depending on where you are.
