how safe?
wondering if any of you living/working in this region could share your opinion on how safe it is (for an American) to work in this area of the world? I've read the US embassy website info, but they seem to paint a negative picture of many places i've lived and travelled in far more wild than they truly were.
I am a respectful citizen of planet earth (not a loud, obnoxious american A-hole), but that being said - I am a white guy from the US.
Any experience or opinions you could share is greatly appreciated~
