my brother's and i have travelled the world. ive been to rio and morroco and barcelona, and returned home unscathed.
rio's safety concerns made like you couldnt where a damn watch. i felt more endangered in barcelona than i have anywhere else in the world.
well, actually, i will never visit morocco again.
we're staying at the W and plan on using their concierge for recommended trips, bars and restaurants.
i think well be fine.
You felt more in danger in Barcelona than Rio...

You'd probably feel safe running around with a $100 bill taped to your forehead in the slums of Sao Paulo then also. I don't get that one. Barcelona is far-and-away nicer than Rio.
I think maybe you are staying in resorts rather than exploring the cities.
I've never been to Morocco....don't know why I would ever go either though.
Whatever. If you think Mexico City is 'nice' then I seriously doubt your ability to honestly judge what 'nice' is.
But, like I said, whatever.
