I find the whole thing really uncomfortable and as I watch, I am really embarrassed for everyone taking part in the show. Most television doesn't make me physically cringe but I have been.

Why?

Well, I can't figure out what's going on with the Peace Corps volunteers. My basic assumption is that they came to Bulgaria as part of a cultural and educational exchange and that because of this they are culturally savvy and politically aware. But then in episode 2 they spend much of the show digging through garbage cans collecting clothes and plastic bottles and riding on a horse cart. This episode is topped of with a gypsy party.
