I am considering going to the DPRK with Koryo Tours: http://www.koryogroup.com/tours/dprk-north-korea/groupI know there are other tour groups but they seem to be the most experienced with a large amount of options. They also seem to have a good relationship with the gov. The DPRK just seems to be one of the most interesting and fascinating countries ever, and I want to see it for myself, but i am worried and heavily considering going to Central Asia instead. Has anybody gone/considered to gone then thought better? Recommended things to see?

You sound full of shit or are really dumb.>>2659428I went in 2019 with Uritour. I remember prefering Uritour over Koryo because Uritour was staying at 3 different hotels so there was less time wasted on the bus.I stayed 5 nights and really enjoyed it.

>>2659456NOTICE: The North Korean border is currently closed due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Please check COVID-19 & North Korea for updated information. NO Tours to North Korea (DPRK) will be taking place until the border is open again. The tours below are planned departure dates but until the country is open to tourists again all tours will remain suspended.
>>2661252From the Uritour guide they sent me:As a rule of thumb, the photography/video rules are as follows:● Do not take photos of the military (soldiers, installations, checkpoints, militaryvehicles)● Do not take photos of construction sites● When you want to take a picture of (or with) a local Korean, ask permission fromthat person first● When taking photos of monuments, portraits or artworks of the Great Leaders,capture the entire monument, portrait or artwork in its entirety (eg. no cut offlimbs)● There will be times when you are not permitted to take pictures from the car orbus● Always ask your guides first when in doubt, and their decision is final
Norway, Iceland, Sweden, Finland or Iceland?which is your favorite and why? looking to visit one of them, or can i go in all 4 as a use citizen in the course of 1 month.

So, basically, I got an invitation to live/work in Japan. I work in software engineering. I'm not a fanatic about Japan, but I think it could be a great experience in my life.white male, 32yoI speak some Japanese, and I can understand most conversations. However, I have some doubts about what to expect regarding day-to-day life. I'm taking a small preparatory course about the customs, but most of the content is related to work place or work related manners.I'm going to live in a place around a big city. I would like to know what the nightlife is like, the day-to-day life, and what I can really expect from my coworkers. What do people usually do on weekends? How is the dating scene, and how should I really behave on a first date?Most of the info videos on this topic lack of useful information; some are overly positive, while others are just blackpilled. If anyone knows of a more realistic source about what to expect when living in Japan, I would appreciate it.

Are there any fun spots in Tulum for nightlife that aren't just beachfront raves or full moon party spiritual nonsense? My wife and I will be there next week and she wants to go out and dance a bit but neither of us are looking for these kinda things that are advertised everywhere.

The thing is, sometimes restauranteurs don't want to serve it to you because it takes a little more time to prepare the authentic version. But if you are insistent and keep pressing for the original chicken alfredo then you eventually will earn their respect. >NaplesThe area right around the central train station is by far the most beautiful. Plan on spending most of your time here. People are extremely approachable. >SicilyEveryone speaks English here, even the old people, they can just be a bit shy about their abilities, but ultimately they prefer English. If they reply in Italian it just means they can't hear/understand you so just repeat it louder. They have these special zones called "ZTLs" that are like historical driving tours. Basically that means it's the section of town that the local government has set up for tourists to get the best drive tour.

My sister and I just went to France and had a multitude of experiences that resulted in many laughs from our family. One being her trying to converse with the a local in broken Duolingo French. After 15 minutes of hearing us struggle, he started speaking fluent English despite listening to her and I converse in English. He just wanted to mess with us and it was all in good spirit. We had a great time.Did you have any memorable travel experiences that has made people laugh when you recount it?

>>2659343The first time I went to America as a French I was 19 and without much money. So when I was in Boston I decided to book the cheapest hotel online and it was far outside the city. I had to take a bus for one hour and then walk for half an hour. I didn't realize it was that far because I wasn't used to the scale of north american maps, I thought I was booking in the near suburb.I ended up arriving at a motel on foot in a car dependent American suburb, it was already dark outside. The guy at the reception asked me where was my car, I acted like I didn't understand.In the morning the half hour walk to the bus stop was especially weird, people looking at me wondering what the fuck I was doing in their neighborhood walking.

Was in Tbilisi years ago by myself in the hostel I used to stay at when I went mountaineering there. Decided to go for drinks with some of the other guys that were traveling by themselves. The evening ended up being very drunk for most of them while I - luckily used to strong Georgian alcohol - managed to remain only pleasantly buzzed. At some point the Aryan German manlet ended up trying to convince the chill Israeli that Germany had collectively moved on from nazism by cracking Jew jokes. It didn't work, the Israeli was highly unamused but remained polite and calmly but firmly told the German to cut it off, at which the drunk German redoubled his efforts to prove he's not a nazi by attempting to fire off even more jokes. Had a good laugh at the sheer absurdity of the situation. We also lost the Canadian, who apparently fell asleep in the toilet of the last bar in town to be open.>>2659358Nice one, had a good laugh.

Saying fuck the US, moving over to PH since I can get a SIRV visa and stay as long as I like. I've got bare minimum $600/month in passive income to live off. I like to think I have a pretty solid plan here, but feel free to tell me I'm stupid and I'll let you know if I thought of it.Anyway, I wanted to travel around a bit off Credit cards before I get there, so I should have around $30k to work with, plus a couple grand cash for the things that won't take cards. I want to visit Japan, see Tokyo and visit some of the whisky distillers, check out some of the historical stuff. Maybe visit South Korea? Then head to Thailand for a bit for the nature, temples, etc. Then off to Philippines to figure out where I'm settling down.Just wanted to know what /trv/ thought, if there's things I should be sure to do in those countries, if there's other countries I should check out, or anything else I should know. I like to walk/hike, have no problem going out off the beaten path, and I've got a pretty strong stomach and enjoy authentic Asian food, so no need to find McD or shit like that.Anything I should know, resources I should check out, trolls complaining about what I'm trying to do?
I’m currently living in the Philippines.I recommend OP stay for 3 months and he will learn a new appreciation for whatever location in the US he is currently trying to eacape.$600 a month is barely enough to live off rice and hotdogs. he wont even be able to afford hotdog spaghetti. Or grocery bill is higher than it was in the US for much lower quality food. Thankfully my filipina wife is also ready to go back as soon as her mother is in better health. my filipina wife is the major bread winner. im disabled and she is a travel nurse when we live in the US. she affords is a wealthy lifestyle. i cant complain.
>>2652049I live in Philippines. If I wasn't making at least 3.5k USD I think, I wouldn't enjoy living here. Manila is actually heaven on earth if you have an abundance of disposable income. I love it here as a successful young guy.I'll be honest though I fucking hate bugs. If you're cheap, you're far more likely to encounter them. The bugs here are huge and disgusting. Perhaps consider some place in southern Europe.
>>26600033.5k usd is not successful dude. thats like $55k a year before taxes. which you arent paying
>>2660005Oh, no. 3.5k a month isn't. I was doing that online before I was 22 on ebay. But 4600 per week is with zero income tax :-)

>all these people saying these dudes must have resisted in some way>shot in the headHow do you singlehandedly shoot three extremely fit white guys in the head while they're fighting back? This is why you should always carry two weapons in third world countries; one to visibly disarm yourself against the assailant if they hold you up with a gun, and one to use to fight for your life against the assailant when they seem the least guarded or most distracted.

I tried to break it off in a friendly way and say I couldn't meet her, and she replied "you're not gonna play me like that dude lol". Needless to say, I deleted both our messages on the app we were talking on then I blocked her as soon as I saw that text. With what I told her, I know there's a slight chance it may not yet be over and she may send my dirty pics to people I know or something, but I'm ignoring her whatever comes so she doesn't get the satisfaction. No woman I'm with is gonna lowkey threaten me like that.

Im currently working a shitty dead end job and want to find a new one. The only experience I have is various machinery and quality stuff. I'm relatively young and don't have any experience outside of that. I want to find a travelling job because it's the thing I enjoy the most outside of vidya. I don't think I would mind working with others but I'm not very social. I don't want to work another monotonous job. Is there any job that fits the bill or do they all require some sort of experience?
>>2661058fpbp, these type of threads are so annoying
>>2661061Okay, look up on indeed "your job title" select travel required and roll.Chances are they will want some industry certifications if you lack any of them you're not worth the time.
>>2661065Alright, thanks. There is a ranking system for my field and I'm currently the second highest. I was looking to do train into something different due to the way my job set me up but this would be a good alterative.

I DON'T REALLY DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN <entry level shit at best>.>Try to re explain how it will take more work that just a simple crash course>almost visibly see in one ear and out the other happeningMost people don't get that unless you have 2-3 years experience and something that makes you stand out such as industry certifications, getting a remote job is fucking hard. No having a N+ and being "a really hard worker" isn't going to pay for you to be a liability working in a foreign country of SEA for 22.50/hr when they could pay Pedro 7.25hr via a contract in the Philippines who has an office he goes to every day. Many companies have been burned to hell and back by remote workers doing nothing at all. When people realize it requires more effort than the work they do, they quit trying and go back to day dreaming. By the time you get the Certs and EXP for a remote or travel job, most people have gotten into a position with 4 weeks off+PTO or are good enough to change to a well paying job where travel doesn't seem all that much important anymore.It's not impossible but unless you're going to look up industry certifications, CPA/Welding/HVAC/HAZMAT/CCNP/etc to couple along with your experience; it's going to be an insanely up hill battle most the time.Comment too long.
