Russki? Nyet!

From The Guardian Wrap:

An influx of brash Russian tourists is creating a stir at one of Austria's poshest ski resorts, according to the Telegraph. Their vulgar behaviour is such a problem that the Austrian resort of Kitzbuehel is to cap the number of Russians to 10 per cent, in its hotels, the paper reports.

"They are too noisy and they drink too much," one resident tells the paper. The Guardian itself says that the presence of "big spending" Russian is fuelled by a property boom in Russia. "Russians are increasingly buying ski chalets and hotels for GBP15m or more, driving prices up and pushing locals out, despite the fact that only EU citizens have the right to buy property in Kitzbuehel," it says.
