A couple of years ago I met some people in Vegas, we were playing Blackjack at the same table. They asked where I was from and I told them that I live in Czech but come from London and to my shame speak little Czech.
They were totally amazed that I would live in a country where I was not born and could not speak the language. Then another person joined in to say that two years ago they had gone on a coach holiday visiting London, Paris, Geneva, Viena and Rome.
I asked how they enjoyed it and they said they had a wonderful time and were lucky that all the hotels were located near the MacDonalds in the city.
They had traveled to some of the greatest food centres in the world and were eating MacDonalds, which they assumed we only had a few of.
When the new 2257 regulations came out, there was an immediate out cry that us European content providers would be in trouble having to supply International Passports as IDs. It showed how many Americans actually have a passport and their take on whether we have them. I can't remember the last time a girl turned up for a shoot telling us she did not own a passport.
The reason for travelling is to experience other peoples take on life, their views, their culture and their beliefs. If you travel the length of California the enviroment changes and little else.
