It makes you realize really quickly that many people do not live well compared to westerners. It bums you out a bit. You also stop feeling this empathy the moment you go to places like India because everyone there is a fucking asshole.

Made me less sympathetic to the homeless because I spent a month going around South Korea and the number of homeless I saw (panhandling, sleeping on the streets, wearing ratted clothes, random yelling) was about the same number I see on my daily commute in Atlanta.

I was a raging anti-Semite until I went to Israel and had shakshuka.

I travelled to many countries in Asia for a year and I realised how some places are an absolute dump. I thought the UK was a shithole (still is), but I've visited Manila, Philippines for the first time and it was repulsive.

It makes you appreciate other cultures and gives you an understanding on why the preservation of your own is very important.
You also discover that, in a majority of the world, the most idiotic people some how outlasted the intelligent.
