Hi, Byron !!

I like this story about Yemen, though I wouldn't go there for anything in this world. I don't know whether luckily or unluckily, I am a deep Westerner.

I reached the Ural Mountains (The Urals) in the East and Hawaii in the West, but the rest of the world --that is, Africa and Asia--, . . . well, I know where these countries are, but I have no intention of going there. I am a deep westerner.

If one day I could travel again and I want something exotic, I prefer South America. Eventually, at a slower pace, they belong to the Western Civilization and the outside is very Western, though the lower class is still anchored in the Aztec or Incan past

I agree 100% with you about Saudi Arabia, though of course I have never been there, neither I have any appetite to go.

Your travel stories are always very interesting. Really. I like to read them as I certainly improve my English.

(Warren Patterson published my story about my trip to Russia --he cut in half. I don't know. Probably it was longer than he accepts.) ALL the BEST. Louisa.
