Have Conflict, Will Travel

Why Have Conflict, Will Travel?  Well, I’ve been living overseas off and on for almost a decade.  I’ve lived (outside of multiple US locations) in Israel, Macedonia, Bolivia, and now Serbia.  I lived through the first two years of the Second Intifada in Israel, the aftermath of the 2001 “civil war” in Macedonia, a couple of hectic months in Bolivia at the low point in US/Bolivian relations, and now in Serbia (less than a year after some Serbs set fire to our embassy).  Governments should be paying me to stay away from their country.
