Yes,I do...but just briefly.I've spent time in Dubai (the United Arab Emirates) so I'm at least somewhat familiar with the region and the culture.I don't drink...I don't chase or bother women (of any culture) and I'm not stupid enough to say anything against the Religion of Pieces while there so I'm not likely to get into trouble.
I want to visit to see Mecca...briefly,as I said.I've already done Rome and hope to see Jerusalem as well.
Good luck to you. I also have the wanderlust from time to time. That’s one of the few things I miss from being in the Navy years back. As you have discovered, it doesn’t have to be that difficult to stay out of trouble, unless something comes to you. You may need certain vaccinations though.
I found that just being nice to others and considerate as a visitor or a guest, goes a long way. Be self sufficient when you can, but ask for help if necessary.
Always be aware of your surroundings, especially after dark or in desolate areas. Come to think of it, these are the same factors I consider of whenever I have to drive through certain parts of Oakland or Berkeley, California.
