Granted, there are some stunningly beautiful, historic places to be seen, and hopefully you will be able to spend your time enjoying them. We never get to, so I'm pretty sure I'm jaded. Just be careful, and extremely vigilant about what you eat and drink. We've had guys return home and spend months fighting some infernal bug picked up over there, even as careful as we are.

Jeff, I travel for perspective. Being among others, both more and less fortunate than one's own self offers an opportunity for introspection and realignment. Sometimes you need to get out of your comfort zone for this to happen. Its one of the reasons I absolutely love Brazil, and I hope, India.
