re: What is the worst place you have ever been to

Luanda. A man eating out of a pile of trash next to a coffee shop while the locals acted like he wasn’t there. The country is so beautiful with many natural resources and it’s just squandered away. I could say so much more about the depravity but it’s just too depressing.

This. Luanda is 40 square miles of garbage and collapsing buildings with a few half-mud streets intersecting it all. Broken sewer lines everywhere. Even in the airport where you must go out of the terminal, walk down the sidewalk and go back inside to avoid a 35M2 puddle seeping up through the floor. The money it would take to get me to work there again hasn't been printed yet.
