Journal Title: ESSACHESS - Journal for Communication Studies - Year 2009, Vol 2, Issue 2
Abstract
Saly Portudal resort and Petite Côte are more and more privileged destinations for Europeans and French people, especially elderly. They tend to become permanent resident. They only go back to Europe just to have medical care or to pay visit to their relatives. This inversion of stay durations has a lot of economic and social stakes at a local level.
