The only thing that really bothers me about Southeast Asia (not all places and countries to be fair) is that locals mostly don't care about trash on the beaches etc. This is a big problem, especially in countries like Indonesia. I hope it's not that bad in South America.

Exactly. I was so angry when I saw how the local people were treating the incredible nature in which they were living. I just couldn't understand this. In this respect, Sri Lanka was absolutely horrible - even though it was one of the most beautiful destinations that we've ever visited. We were shocked by huge piles of trash which were scattered, frequently, right next to some of the most beautiful Sti Lankan beaches.
Judging from what I've seen, South America is much cleaner. It was a bit messy here and there, but not even close to some of the scenes that we came across during our time in South Asia.
