Alec's 40 Weird Travel Experiences Around the World

In more than 40 years of travel I have studied foreign languages, had sex with local women, been in hospitals, arrested by the Stasi in East Berlin, done graffiti on the Berlin Wall (western side), had to pay bribes to cross borders, illegally crossed borders and ate for free at various farmers markets when I had no money. And that was after I got out of the military... while I was in the Navy we did worse on liberty ... but that's for another list another time.
Here are 40 unique experiences I have had in my foreign travels.
