This is a question Travel

I've had guns pointed at me in many different countries, sometimes even by our own side. I've also sat on my own on a beach on a desert island, which was nice because nobody was trying to shoot me. Tell us your tales of foreign travel.

Thanks to SnowytheRabbit for the suggestion

I had some excellent advice from a Datoga cattle baron by Lake Eyasi in Tanzania.
"Simba!" He said, for I had quite the handsome mane of curly hair at the time. "Simba! You must remember one thing when you go back to your country. If you ever find yourself telling an anecdote that involves an uneventful trip through an airport security scan then you must take your kisu and cut out your own throat. If your life has become that dull then you have no life."
Then he wrapped himself more tightly in his blanket, spat on the ground, and said. "Cheers."
