If I had the chance to go anywhere in the world it would be to go to Colombia because I have never been there and would like to go somewhere new and different. In Colombia it must be interesting in studying the economic, political views, and religious beliefs. I would study the environment they live in and how they communicate and interact with people.

What they eat and drink, and where they live, and do in their everyday life. The activities they do are definitely different everywhere and the clothes they wear and why they do certain things.

Also the work factor because when a person moves to another country they want to make sure that they will find a job and not worry about money or anything
