Gross that you are saying those kid’s hunger ruins your day out shopping for sundresses. Wow, just wow.
Why don’t you do something so that fewer kids are hungry?
You know that millions of children grow up in poverty, right? This is not about the “culture “ in one country?????
Do you contribute to charities?
Vote for politicians who would pass a living wage bill?
I probably do more than most people here. I donate about 75k to charity a year. I still don't want this in my face when I'm on vacation. So Brazil socks for this! So does Buenos Aires and Lima.

US culture is no different and in fact, arguably worse as we are so rich yet accept homelessness and poverty as inevitable.

What?!?? Rome is utterly fascinating! I’ve been 6+ times and fall more in love whenever I visit.
I grew up poor and our only vacations were camping or to drive South to Visit grandparents.
Now I love traveling and have been all over the world and can honestly say I’ve never HATED any place. I may have found some spots dull/uninspiring/etc but I didn’t hate anywhere.

This is like saying you went to some random industrial towns in Europe and saying how bad they are.
Chinquoteague is a coastal town
Luray Caverns are deep in the country
Richmond &. Charlotte are not remotely industrial
Good to see the American brain force is out in full tonight.![]()

I would suggest virtual vacations with those virtual reality goggles if reality disturbs you so much.

AGREED!! WAY too crunchy- the shops were awful and the food was meh- not high end at all either
