If I told you there was a country where you should exercise increased caution because terrorists may attack with little or no warning, targeting tourist locations, major sporting and cultural events, and other public areas - can you guess what country that would be?
That's right, it's Belgium [1]
I can't imagine what a US State Department travel advisory for travel to the United States would look like....

- BrandoElFollito 4y agoWhen reading the advisories (I usually read the ones from a few countries, including mine -France), I compare them to the countries I know well and then decide on the actual dangers. Usually they are way off. The good thing about these advisories is some health stuff : the shots, where to seek help etc.
