Bhutan

Located in the Himalayan foothills south of China, Bhutan is one of those countries I wish I could have visited like thirty years ago so that I could use my modern clothing and something most of us consider to be a mundane everyday object (e.g. a Swiss Army knife or stainless steel cheese slicer) to awe its people and trick them into thinking I was some kind of a god, or at least a minor bodhisattva. Of course, now they have technology. Sort of. Well, they're AWARE of technology. Like, if you mentioned technology in a conversation, they wouldn't be like "What's that?" Bhutanese people are basically like the Buddhist Amish. In their spare time, the Bhutanese enjoy drawing penises all over everything. I'm not kidding.

See?
