Any opinions regarding this airline? They have cheap flights from my home country to LAX, but they don't include carry-on luggage on their cheapest fare, so I want to be sure if I ain't signing a contract with a Colombian devil?
Avianca has been selling miles just to stay out of bankruptcy (again), speaks volumes about if those miles will last or if future-dated flights will still operate. buyer beware
It's a run of the mill legacy carrier.
>Be me>Look up stuff about new country>Click on travel blog #823472342 by some random 27 year old girl who travels for a livingI understand being able to make a living if you're the top of the top but how the hell are there so many people who seemingly make a living writing articles on wordpress? And what's stopping somebody from using AI to pump out articles and itineraries?
>>2849220>ye jus gonna go pakistan and demand free shitkek, imagine getting on the plane with this as your plan of action
>>2847946>And what's stopping somebody from using AI to pump out articles and itineraries?Nothing.Half of these blogs just copypasted generic bullshit from each other before the AI era, by the way. The "info" was mostly utterly useless nonsense when verified on-site.
>>2848375When anything is shilled in a newspaper 'article', you know it's shit.
>>2849221why not, that seems to be their plan when they come over here
>>2851532It's time they experienced the same. White boys, it's our time for reparations.
I was curious the different expat communities around the world. What are your guys experiences with them?It can be any nationality in any country. For me, an American, I'm thinking of visiting places here in the States that have certain expat communities of countries I want to visit (Japan, China, South Korea, Taiwan).
>>2851313There certainly is, but I have never had issues in several other major Asian cities and I found most of their expat communities to be much more pleasant than Tokyo's.
>>2851516go to hokkaido and lock in on aussie ski thot girls. trust.
>>2851522I'm going to Sapporo in Feb for the snow festival. I'm way too late to do any ski jobs (not that I really wanted to anyway) - do I just stay in Niseko for that then?
>>2851522>>2851523it's over
>>2851537lol. Guess I'll just go hang around Hirafu and if I meet people then I'll try rent equipment. No big deal if it's too hard though.

>>2851154I don't like hostelfags, simple as. Hostelfags are herd animals at their core. They even sleep together like a fucking herd of cows. Their adventures are little more than obedient plodding along the tracks of the ten thousand hostelfags who went before them, taking the exact same route. This is all borne out by the fact that hostels are located in a very small number of places on Earth, maybe 1% of population centers if that. Yet those places are the only places that hostelfags care to go. The rest of the map is a big blank space in their minds, and they are all content to leave it that way.>>2851165Jew poison.

Discussion for all things Philippines.The Philippines has the greatest expat community in the world! Come to live in an imitation of iconic East Asian business districts with much lower prices. With a location this good surely that condo you bought is only going to go up in value as it ages! Ignore the corruption and broken infrastructure. Everything is shiny and the lights are bright. That's all that matters. Live in social isolation despite the people around you speaking passable English. Boast about your supposed sexual exploits on an anime website to impress lonely virgin NEETs who wish to be you. Drink alone until you pass out. Living the dream baby.Previous thread: >>2843920
>>2851318>sabot ko bisaya pero Gamay lang..I cannot XD. Everytime Cebuans say that seriously I guffaw. What an unfortunate word cognate. >Philosophical conversationEveryone is preoccupied with work to care about that or just plain ignorant on the subject. It's invented by rich Greeks after all who have servants to cater their every need like you. Most flips don't have that luxury.

>>2849942I rode a bus from Laoag to Pasay, and it wasn't even around Christmas. It took about 12 hours and stopped innumerable times. By the halfway point of the journey, the entire aisle was crammed with people who had to take turns sitting on the floor or standing. Traffic was horrendous the whole way.>>2850059Food in India mogs the Philippines so hard it's not even funny. The menus here have 200 items, and the staff are willing to cook up all of them from scratch for you (even if it requires a dash to the market). Even the cheap fried snacks are refried to a perfect crispy texture before being handed over to you. And the flavors are quite literally 100x more complex and amazing than in PH. The ultimate kicker? I'm spending less per day on food in India than I did in PH, and I'm eating so much better.
>>2851160You can buy birth control pills OTC at Mercury Drug. You're a larper but whatever dude keep on keeping on. Who cares.
>>2848354Manila is a massive dump the pollution is terrible, food sucks, street dogs, beggers everywhere, everyone is low iq. They are building a metro, and trying to make it more competive for business, new airport which is a step in the righ direction 5-10 years it will be less shit. Cebu is slightly better less of a shithole For me personally I wouldn't have sex with slum girls, becasue they are legit 80 iq can't talk with them worse body from shit diet. I would go for higher quality girls from more stable backgrounds work a real job not scamming boomers.Cuming in pinays is great, pussy is tight they get wet easily, they can be very submessive allmost to submessive can fee like having a dog, also they can be lazy as fuck make sure to get a bitch that isn't lazy. I think the ideal setup is you have an attracitve looking pinay in the provience get her pregnant, and see her when you feel like. Tourism aside from women is the only other reason to here. Kawasan falls was alot of fun, but then again why not just go thailand?Aside from easy visas to philpppines, and thai women being "harder" that pinays. This is becasue the country is less of a dump and women are less desperate and won't let you creampie them day one beause they have longer range planning. My advice if you want to come here. Get a pinay you find attractive message her on whatsapp for a while before going there don't talk about sex if she agrees to meet you will litreally be cuming in her pussy the first time you meet. Do a bunch of tourist stuff then she might get pregnant might not Stay for 2-4 weeks if you want get her pregnant stay longer then go back to a non-shithole country repeat the process until desired outcome .

>>2850807>>2850822obviously, there's Chinese music other than the pop ballads you described. I would rec Omnipotent Youth Society and Cui Jian as starting points for getting into Chinese rock, which is much more complex.also 为道 isn't a word. did you mean 味道?
>>2851176Oh yes, I meant 无为
I have a problem. I’m going to go visit china next month. And I’m not excited at allI really wanted to visit china pre covid when I was in college. It’s all I wanted to do. I would watch endless YouTube videos about it. I ended up marrying a Chinese girl that I met and collage. This will be my first visit to Asia in general, and for some reason. I’m not excited at all.
>>2851456is it the long flight?is the lust gone because you're locked in?has your soul died from adulthood?
I want to visit here. Mainly Kazakhstan, but I'd like to eventually see all of them. What do I need to know in order to prepare myself? I'm an American who's only traveled in first world, highly English-speaking western countries before. Are these countries cheap? What are the must see places? Do I need a tour guide? Are the cities as lively as the western world? How strict Muslim are they? Is it possible to pick up chicks here?
>>2846950>hitchhikingRough. The Pamir highway is challenging, not much traffic, and most won't have room for an extra passenger.
>>2848523More interesting to YOU anon. There's your answer
Heading to Kazakhstan with a bunch of friends for a few weeks, anyone got some recommendations on places to visit and food to try? I know absolutely nothing.
>>2825169Just dropping this here for posterity https://archived.moe/trv/thread/2366410
>>2850088Kazakhstan is kinda big. Are you visiting Almaty? Then do the Big Almaty Lake. As for food, in every -stan you need to try plov.
You're all financing your trips with credit arent you?
>>2851207There's literally no reason to not use credit. Nothing to do with affordability. Unless you're getting a fantastic deal with cash only it's just pure stupid to not use credit for cashback / points. Maybe it's different in cuck parts of the world, but interest does not apply to purchases unless you don't pay off the statement within a month.

What would a Kingdom Hearts ride look like?
Twitter is full of swiftfags wishing Rock n Roller Coaster would be rethemed to Taylor Swift. I hate swiftfags so much (which is difficult, as my mother is one of them)

Why does the face on the Singapore dollar look like it was drawn by an amateur? The lips, eyes, the shading. It's all very slightly off. I can't be the only person who notices it.
