Yeah, there are always the people who say "Oh, I *love* traveling to Mexico" and what they mean is "I love getting off an airplane, taking the resort transportation to the very cushy resort that is in no way representative of the culture, sitting by the pool drinking margaritas and ordering 'the help' around, and then going straight back to the airport."
No, that's the kind of travel that can only expand the waistline, not the perspective.
