Question
My wife and I would like to go visit a country that has an Arab culture. We are teachers and we would like to expose our students to a different way of life. My wife's is thoughly American and Catholic and will not publicly or privately take a backseat to anyone. Do you have a suggestion as to where we might go where she can just be herself (short pants, shop barganing, etc.).  

Answer
Hi,
I suggest Syria.
The best time is from April to November where the weather will be nice there.

Syria is safe place for foreign tourists, and it has a plenty of historical places.
Also hundreds of American tourists visit Syria everyday, and also people are free to wear anything…
