One of my favorite cities is Beirut.
You should check that place out. We did not have any problems there and I would love to go back![/b]

I certainly second that and third that !!
In addition I would add Syria. Syrians are so misunderstood because of the media. They are actually very hospitable and really enjoy
meeting foreigners, very friendly.

On a 3rd note, Libya. My only qualm is that it&#39;s &#39; dry &#39;. But that small inconvenience is fast outpaced by the Leptis Magna .... wow, wow and wow !
I found it relatively friendly, but tourism is again, in it&#39;s infancy again. A lot of foreign workers there now, so they don&#39;t feel a isolated as they previously did.

I went to Lima in November and did not find it intimidating. I was lead to believe in something quite different ..... any big city needs some common sense I think.

My next &#39; adventure &#39; country will be Ethiopia ....
