"When visiting my brother who lives in Switzerland, I was surprised at the amount of independence that parents give their children. I'm from the U.K., where most parents wouldn't dream of letting a five year old walk to school alone. My brother and his wife are perfectly happy to let their kids walk to school unsupervised, and the route even includes train tracks."

I live in the US. I’ve been to Europe, Asia, and South America. No offense, but nothing really interests me in the countries I visited. Much more interesting places in the US. Big and/or old cities are just not my thing. Lotta pretty girls in Asia though.

Well, to each their own obviously. But personally for me there have been no greater experiences or I never learned as much as while travelling. Especially in non western countries. You experience more while being in a culture unlike your own.

In Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, there were literally over 100 scooters at busy intersections (not an exaggeration).
