Wow dumb is a lil harsh on anothers opinions. Different from yours doesn't mean dumb. Some people are most comfortable planning and having solid plans when they travel. If they've never been before they may not be comfortable w/the idea of doing a search in an unfamiliar place or don't want to hassle with a search during there visit. That said I'd love the opportunity to travel and would need to make a lil but IMO more than the majority of pay is the all expense paid trip w/a spending allowance. If I'm in a position to take a vacation w/o affecting my budget I'd be willing to call that the full donation. Traveling is not cheap especially going to other countries and the experience is priceless therefore if able to do it why ask for more. Greed is useless.
