A professor of mine did it back in the late 60s and he says it's the one experience that radically changed his life. It forced him to see himself as an American bourgeois versus through some kind of rose-colored glasses. Given the stories he's told us in class of his experiences and time in Africa, I'd love to do it too. It sounds like a one in a million chance.
