A SPANISH tourist has been left fuming after being spoken to in ‘foreign languages’ during a Mallorca holiday. 

As anti-tourism protests reach a boiling point all over Spain, Mallorca has become the focal point of a nationwide debate on overtourism. 

Now, an Asturian tourist has expressed disbelief after a local reporter asked them about their holiday at Palma Airport last Wednesday.

“It was a very long week…We have been in Magaluf and it was so, so bad,” he said. 

“We’re in Spain and everyone speaks to us in a foreign language. It’s a lack of respect. We’re not going to come back” 

“Awh come on,” said the reporter, “you have to come back, people from all over the Balearic Islands are watching this.”

The video, from the Balearic channel Cinc Dies, has now gone viral, with many commenters pointing out that he didn’t recognise Catalan is also spoken in Mallorca. 

“If he doesn’t want to come back, don’t come back, we already know there are plenty of them,” said one user. 

While others commented ‘it’s better to speak Spanish and not disturb you.’ 

It is not clear what ‘foreign languages’ the man was referring to.
