I'm struck by the fact so many people have uncontrollable bowels.
Maybe eat foreign spicy food for dinner, not lunch.
Dumb statement.
Its not spicy food, its referred to as travelers diarrhea, generally caused by bacteria that is harmless to locals but problematic for visitors because their gut microbiome is not accustomed to the local microbes.

You can't tell me you've never had a poop emergency hit at the wrong time. It's part of the human experience. Ethnicity or spice has nothing to do with.
sure. if i ate something i knew was going to do it.
I don't go eat massive quantities of taco bell before i go hiking in the mountains. I don't have uncontrollable bowels when i go hiking in the mountains when i eat a basic sandwich before going.
I don't have poop emergencies, unless i ate something stupid.

I probably would have been more scared of that Russian security guard than that dog. Can you post a picture of those blueprints? That seems like an incredible find

When I was young (probably 12 or 13), my mom and I were walking back to the train station after having had dinner in Florence with some people in our group. I noticed some really shifty gypsies started following us and getting closer. So, we started walking a lot faster to catch up with the group. When the gypsies saw that we had strength in numbers, they backed off.
A few days later, in Switzerland, we went to a mountain in the Alps. I stole a lunch tray from the cafeteria in the lodge and brought it out with me to the Panarama at the peak of the mountain and used it to sled down a little hill of snow (probably only about 6 feet high). All these kids, and some of the adults, thought that was the most brilliant idea ever and wanted to borrow the tray. Well, one of the adults in our group borrowed it, but I forgot to tell her that at the base of the hill, it's probably a good idea to whip out so you come to a stop. She, figured this out a little late and nearly went flying off the mountain to her death. Thankfully, she managed to stop herself at the last moment.

We went to NYC in 2012. We didn’t have a credit card at the time, we used only debit cards until about 3 years ago.
Well, debit card stops working on vacation. Called the bank and they said they’d canceled the card for security reasons. They were afraid it had been compromised. They called...the house! I was on vacation.
Luckily my wife’s card wasn’t cancelled. We had to use it the rest of the trip.

besides a few encounters with some seemingly sketchy people, I would say the scariest moment was rounding a corner in the Glacier NP backcountry and see a grizzly at 20 ft in the middle of the trail
luckily it kept moving and nothing happened (we turned around immediately), but that will certainly get your heart pumping

So it’s a myth that bears are attracted to human feces then?
