I really enjoy travelling, which makes my job ideal for me.  However, I have been reading that there has been an 80% increase in reported kidnappings in Mexico, which makes me think that perhaps Mexico is not a good travel destination at this point in time.  I’ve been reading an article in the Time.com website about the increase in Mexican kidnappings, it appears that many kidnappings are going unreported because the authorities may be involved in the kidnappings in the sense that they are the ones doing the kidnappings!  Even when the ransoms are being paid, the victims are being killed!  This is a sad state of affairs!
