Mr. Bourdain isn't afraid to show it all. He goes everywhere and will try anything. His shows visit the real location, not just what the the glossy brochures and postcards show. He's always a gracious guest when visiting other countries as well. He's been to places I may never see and given me tips on places I've traveled.
