[travel] Sociocultural bingo
I find I really get the most out of a country by trying to interact with as many different combinations of big-city/small-city/rural, traditional/modern, rich/middle-class/poor as possible.
I'm now planning out each country's travel to ensure I get as much of this range of experiences as possible. Usually I will fly into a major city and then take a bus or plane out to a smaller city, and from there, explore nearby rural areas by car, bike, or motorbike.
