What Wikipedia says

Travelers' diarrhea (TD) is a stomach and intestinal infection experienced during travel to a new location as a result of lack of immunity to local food-borne pathogens. TD is defined as the passage of unformed stool (one or more by some definitions, three or more by others) while traveling.
