Do you like Belize? Was there once, before they bulldozed the archaeology, quite the third world experience, and contrast. Got a kick out of seeing guards with sub-machine guns outside the Western Union office, see commercials at home telling me I should retire there, but really haven’t had the desire to go back.

I have been to Belize twice, the last time in May 2016, and thoroughly enjoyed it both times, although yes, it is quite third-worldish. The scenery is spectacular and largely unspoiled. I hadn't heard about the 'bulldozed archaeology', however. Did you happen to see the TV miniseries 'Mad Dogs'? Just remember not to carry around large sums of money.
