Hell, that's about the only reason I travel anymore...for business. 
But yeah, I'd love to travel the world and see a lot of different places without all the tourist traps.
But unfortunately many of the places I'd like to see (like the pyramids in Egypt for instance) are too dangerous because of all the "love" that people have for us Americans worldwide. |
I went to Egypt in 2000. The people were interesting. Those involved in the tourist industry and trying to sell to tourist all were nice. However, our tour guide warned us against going to non-tourist areas and told all the women in the tour group to no go out without a guy with them.
On the last night in Aswan (a city in the far south of Egypt) a group of us wanted to go to hookah bar. The only place that would even serve women made us sit outside and there were a few bars we went to before that where we were told that they don't serve Americans.
