I am back from a two week trip to Asia.  It was amazing and wonderful.  The people were friendly, the views were spectacular, and I took around 650 pictures.  Mostly the one thing that always impresses me is how much different, and in many ways better, is the food choices.  Especially seafood and desserts.  Certain things in the United States are great, for instance, ice cream.  Conversely, most types of pastries and cookies are more flavorful and less sugary.  In any case, if you have not traveled outside the borders of your own state or country, take the time and effort to do so.  Expand your horizons and try something different.
