I find that a very strange post.
For me the greatest pleasure of travel is when I get ouside of the EU and its thought police, corruption and state control of everything (for state read politicians and more importantly 'lobby groups').
In the EU/Western European/American mindset, one almost feels the need to look for signs saying 'you MAY do this' in a certain area. The rest of the world is not like that (yet) for the most part.
Wealth and consumerism breed jealousy and thus crime like nothing else.
Europe is a lovely place, the further east you go away from the EU the nicer it and the people get. You should try it.
