Clear voice and perspective relayed through first person narrative.
I always find it interesting to hear the thoughts and experiences of a decade-younger-individual. Traveling abroad I found similar experiences so I could relate. I think anyone who has travelled outside of the US and interacted with individuals of non-US countries will have similar experiences but perhaps wonder if their experience was isolated or unique...
On its own, the piece is interesting but not really grounded; as part of a series it is solid and memorable.
I enjoyed the honesty and openness of this piece. Most interesting to me were the stories of how the speaker was treated as he travelled through Europe in the fall of 2001. His presentation of the contrast with his treatment these days was effective.
