Vacationing in Chavez's Bolivian Utopia


Here's another vacation destination, and Andres Martinez makes a few statements that ring universal with MFT, perhaps you others as well: Much like learning a second or third language teaches us just as much about our native tongue, "One reason we travel is that by encountering new places and people, we get a better understanding of who we are and where we came from... I don't feel ardently American back home, but when overseas I find that the patriotic impulse kicks in. As in, Hey, that's my president you are ragging on... I may rag on him all the time, but I am not sure I like it when you do..."
