For example, if you live in XX for your whole life, and one fine day you read a book about lets say umm VV. Then you suddenly get all hyped up about someday traveling to VV and eating all of their yummy food, sightseeing etc! Then lets fast forward to like five years later. You have finally saved up enough money to go to VV. Then when you get there, these things happen:
1) Your hotel room stinks of litter and trash
2) Your tour guide turns out to be the creepy guy that stalks you (kidding, but you never know o.o lol)
3) They give you only 5 minutes to see the historical sites that took years to build
4) You miss your bus so your deserted in a foreign country
5) You fall into a fountain (true story)
And so many more things happen! Every one has a different perspective in how you view a certain place, but most of us would judge a country/ place/ thing/ person/ object in a matter of minutes. No one will go back if their first visit was a horrible. If you think logically, its true. Why would you want to spend your time, money and effort to make another trip there, when you "know" what your going to expect? Even if the trip the second time is better, no one would really want to go again so they will not experience the "good" side of the city! Its not necessarily that the country itself is horrible, but the people or the experiences in that place may be. I'll let the pictures do the talking.
