Senior Thesis Travel Grants

Wasnt sure where to post this, but here we go:

I am in the very early stages of prepping for my senior thesis which will be exploring the the development of Latin American Capital Markets and trace its effects, etc. Anyway, I am thinking of applying for a grant to get money to travel to somewhere in LA and conduct research.

My question is: would visiting a specific country/area help with this type of thesis? what types of independent research could I conduct down there that I could not do from my living room?

Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!
