...and this is why you never ask a expat about their home country for travel advice. Biased as hell. Heck I sometimes tell people to avoid visiting Canada because it's freaking expensive and the distances are too big. Esp. Europeans that think everything is a 4 hour train ride away.

I wouldn't want to live in about 80% of the countries I've visited but I still had a great time in each and every one of them.

p.s. would love to visit Bolivia some day.
