It is quite unfortunate that in these times, the people of some nations is afraid travelling due to fear for terrorism. While this is indeed a true and serious problem, the world is in no way what some interests want the public to believe: politicians, businesspeople, some media and even government officials are profiting from fear just to make money. Keeping citizens uninformed and misinformed, and making them believe that the whole world is basically against the United States.

Terrorism is undeniably an issue, but looking at the history of recent decades, there is no indication that now ors since a couple of years ago we are living in times particularly more dangerous, even considering the risks of WMD, which exist for decades; mostly, it is a matter of induced perception.

Destinations like Latin America and Europe, on the contrary, remain perfectly safe and excellent choices for travelling due to the cultural and political proximity to the United States; after all, these parts of the world are also part of Western civilisation.

And there are lots of things to see both in the old continent as well as in the new world; it is really silly to block oneself from getting to know those things just for ideological reasons. One of the things that Latin America offers, for example, is a wonderful, untamed nature of the kind that now it is rarely seen; and in Europe, we can find the true and real, original roots of freedom, democracy, liberty, fraternity and equality to which we are so keen now.

Getting to know other parts of the world is a necessity for good citizenship.
