Is this really a question?
I know people who have driven 3-4 hours each way to get a vaccine. Waited in lines for hours. Had friends a relatives constantly on the phone and checking on;ine.
The system is rigged for those with the privilege of flexibility and a support network.
If vaccines were offered 24hrs a day would you be willing to go in the middle of the night?
"Hola" is the towel of conversations with Spanish speakers.
Start off with "hola", and they'll assume you have the entire rest of the vocabulary as well, but just temporarily misplaced some nouns.

Aerial photographs of Dubai always make me shudder. In the event of any kind of catastrophe, it will be completely scrubbed. It’s not meant to have a city there like that…
It’s amazing what you can accomplish with slave labor.
Damnit Lauren Weinstein , I was going To say “right down to the slaves” ;p
And god help you if you are female in Dubai.
Cindy Brown exactly. That city scares the bejezus out of me! (But I have an irrational fear of travelling while female…)
Kiki Jewell I’ve traveled plenty of times while female 😉 There are places I would not go unless with a fellow traveler or tour group, of course. And there’s places like Dubai where you could not pay me to go.
It will be interesting to see what my daughter says about it. I’m not sure how long she’s there. I think it’s just a layover on the way to Iran. They may be waiting for visas.
Nice art though.https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/P2XccfSDrLKSZAHHf7QegnTqL_qluJumrZNTTotXJojKNxB6PDJOE8aLjhMGftVCwkpNHuNpzKGkYKs5hHnl1fEMbHItnCMBoiJv=s0
Cindy Brown would love to travel with you! 🙂
