Violently traveling

This weekend, I spontaneously wanted to write about traveling. The past few weeks I had been wondering where I would like to travel -if I'd ever like to travel to any place at all-. And after some meditation I came to the conclusion that the country I'd want to visit would be Honduras.

  Why Honduras? Actually, because it's the country with the longest  intentional homicide rate per year per 100,000 inhabitants (90.4). I could read a lot of sociological, criminological and contextualizing research and theoretical papers about it; but to truly comprehend the factors behind the numbers, i must go there. I must try to phenomenologically approach to violence, not only as a theoretical knowledge (from the grammatical third-person), but also experience it as first-person knowledge; and even practical Knowledge. In order to apprehend the phenomena with the less possible prejudices (a.k.a. theoretical categories, previous knowledge); and not only describing it, or statistically explaining it.

I would like to live there, to know what it's like to be an Hondureño, of course in the end I will never know, I come from a different social background, I have a different biography, and my beliefs are impossible to eradicate  in a clear and definite manner. But, it's the only way to understand (and not merely explain) the factors which configures the phenomena of violence. Quoting the Russian proverb:
"Ба́бушка гада́ла, на́двое сказа́ла."
