So I was reading this article about how people aren't backpacking in Europe too much this summer because it's like $1.60 to the euro or something. My friend is getting married and was planning on going there so I thought I'd send the article to her but wanted to read it . It just talked about gas prices etc etc and people going to places where the flight isn't necessarily cheaper, but the destination is. This (I'm assuming) girl posted this comment that made me groan...

Comment: Going to the Caribeean is for sun-soaking purposes. Going to Europe is for cultural diversity enrichment ... quite a difference :)
It all depends what your objectives are in life regarding your human development."
Let me just clarify this for all you uneducated folks. People ONLY go to Europe for cultural enrichment (there aren't even beaches there at all...) and the only place to gain cultural diversity is from the main countries that make up the people in/running this country. Lots of diversity right there.
