Well, right now, the Middle East is off my list. I think the reason why is obvious.
After reading the stories of Chris Kyle (An American Sniper) and Lone Survivor, I’m not too hip on Afghanistan. The amenities there seem a bit lacking, as is the hospitality of the tribesmen.
On a more serious note, I don’t really want to go back to Europe. I traveled there on business and vacation for decades. I’m married to a Scandinavian, so I’ve been there more times than I wanted to go.
Travel used to be a lot more fun and good until about 9/11. After that, going through airports sucks.
When I used to go to an office in Paris, London, Milan, or Cannes (and many other cities, depending on the job), the people were a lot nicer. Now, the American bashing has taken its toll on me.
Even my wife is tired of her relatives talking so much shit about the US and the American people. She doesn’t go as much as she’s fed up also, just not as much as me.
