I think they're all good for some, bad for others.

On another thread we were arguing about certain countries where there is a (ahem) somewhat elevated risk of death do to political instability. Do these count?

Best,
Justin

Yes Political Instability has to be up there. Iraq must be up there I would of thought, Afghanistan...

Maybe we should have a 'Most dangerous' thread. Mine would be(based purely on travel books and Internet blogs etc...I know I should get out more....?!):

1. The Congo
2. Afghanistan
3. Iraq
4. South London
5. Haiti?
6. North Korea

Anyone got more info on working in Iraq or Afghanistan? I'm young and wreckless and would rather consider the option provided the pay was enough.
