Tenna is probably some 16 year old blonde girl from Denmark. I really dislike hysteria over travelling to "unsafe" places. Like when I was in Russia some of my friends wouldn't take an internal flight because they thought it was unsafe. It may be more unsafe than British Airways, but it doesn't mean it's going crash.
I went to Moscow during the period of terrorists attacks in 2004. It didn't bother me much. But the South Caucuses is dangerous. Any foreign place is dangerous for a novice traveller. Tenna comes across as not very travel savy.
Also I think visiting Beslan because of what happened is innapropriate.
A friend who travelled in the Caucasus, who is British told me the police were really friendly to him. Much more so than the ones in Moscow and Petersburg.
I wonder where's next on Tenna's travel itinerary?
Iraq
Gaza Strip
West Bank
Congo
Colombia
