i can see how it would be useful on a personal level. by doing things like that, it is possible to understand, a little, how people in other places feel, what they go through. you can learn to understand fellow humans better. will it solve problems around the world? no. will it allow all those hungry people to fill their tummies? no. but it can teach us, who arent starving, who are doing ok in relation to others, a good lesson in understanding and compassion. you cant really understand someone until youve been in their place. i wont ever understand why my mom does some of the things she does until i have kids. i wont understand what her life is really like. does this give us a full lesson? no, but it can give us a taste. and maybe some people will take it to the next level and their experience will cause them help to make a change.
who knows...?
