You'd be bonkers to not stop off in Honkersto encourage more people to have a night in Hong Kong on the way to Australia/London/wherever. Obviously, this is good because it rhymes, and it suggests mental health issues - the two cornerstones of a successful advertising program. Can we generalise this?
Depression: You'll be incredibly sad if you don't visit Baghdad
Tendency to domestic violence: You won't want to thump her, if you go to Kuala Lumpur
Poor self image: No self-worth? Not if you've been to Perth!
Anomie: If there's nothing about which you give a shit, don't bother coming to Split
Onanism: Visit Ulan Bator unless you're an obsessive masturbator
Any suggestions sincerely welcomed. Apologies in advance for mispronouncing any of your cities for the sake of a cheap joke.

Geriatric - Looking for peace to decease? You'll find it in Nice.
Touche!
I'm wondering if I should put down "Come to Venezuela - you'd be Caracas not to - ah!" or if that is forcing the rhyme scheme a bit further than necessary
Push that envelope, Sir. Surely modern rhyme is like modern art; it is not necessary that it bear any resemblance to the noun which denotes it...
