Twenty or Thirty or perhaps even 40 years ago traveling around the world on the bicycle must have been relatively safe. Those days are gone. I spent a bit of time in Mexico working and doing Port calls with some of the work that I was involved in, and to be quite frank, I wouldn’t go to Mexico on a dare these days.

When I was in the service we would to go to Tijuana and stay all weekend. There was a border curfew so we had to stay all night or risk getting picked up by the SP's coming back across the border. We felt safe in TJ then. Would not do it now.

I remember when being a vagabond and going to various places around the world was in vogue. It has not been a few decades though. People did disappear back then but it did not get as much attention as it does now.
