I know me some ugly

While traveling, it’s easy to photograph the beautiful and seek out the perfect spot to create a memory. However, the moments that are usually even more memorable are the harrowing, strange and downright ugly places you may stumble upon. Whether it be bribes at the border, a dive bar in a sketchy part of town or a dumpy hostel, it seems the worst moments always make the best stories.

On the bright-side, they’ll be sights you can tell stories about for years to come.
