Travel Tales From Across The World

Recently I came across an article by John Washington in New York Review of Books where he describes the plight and pain of people smuggling themselves to cross the border to reach US. John himself was trying to sneak across the border between Guatemala and Mexico, researching for his book. The fragility of illegal immigrant trying to cross the border was heart rending, and it compelled us to think twice not only about the immigration laws but also about the very basic questions of human survival.
