There was a nice restaurant in a business area west of Shinjuku, during lunch hours. Most customers were likely businessmen on a lunch break. I asked for a table for two and was told they're full. Two minutes later my white wife asked and they had seats. Other than that, employees will hover around you like you're trying to steal something ALL THE TIME in every type of store.

no one is making money with it anymore, it's simply the best traveling series

I am spending five days here a month from now for work. My schedule allows a lot of free time. I love history,museums,nature,antiques,thrift and food. I love off the beaten track stuff. Uniquely Maryland things. I have been Edgar Allan Poe obsessed since age 14! I am so excited for this trip! Please reveal the good stuff :)

I lived there for years while I was in college at Towson.

Federal Hill has some awesome little bars and restaurants. The bars around the Cross Street market are all good and white,.

Canton is another nice part of town with good food and bars. The whole block around O'Donnell Square Park is good. It's pretty middle class and white 20-40s, a good place to meet chicks.

The hipsters and art school kids hang out on Charles Street. Brewer's Art is awesome. The Otto Bar has a lot of punk bands come through.

Hampden has some cool bars. The vibe is a little more low class white hipster.

For hiking, get out of the city. Kilgore Falls, The B&O rail trail, Big Gunpowder Falls, Cunningham Falls, Harpers Ferry, downtown Annapolis,

Where is the absolute cheapest place to live in America that's still livable? By that I mean no junkies and some available job/social opportunities. I have an online job and I want to save a large amount of money over the course of a year. I'm not gonna live out of my car and I'm not gonna live out of a tent. Somewhere with my own stove, shower, and bathroom would be ideal.

I live in Cheyenne but I'm moving to bigger cities soon. Wind, snow, cold, and "bad" weather are great filters that keep The Elements out of here. I'm guessing state income tax is fixed to your employer so that won't matter here. This town is also a capital but not really a city (64k), and is 10 mi from the CO border and 100 mi from Denver international. I think this would be a great FI/RE and semi retirement place to live in, but it's not for me who never scored a telework opportunity at all, and has to PCS for better grades.

I just got back from Boulder last night and I was definitely given the strange eye by more than 2 people there, despite being clean shaven, simply dressed, and white. Some of the mountain resort, expensive towns are unfriendly but have more going on for their jail bait kids.

I could theoretically tack some days on but I want to save for more trips later in the year.

Day 1: fly in to Guatemala City and go to antigua
Day 2: Antigua
Day 3: Start Acatenango overnight at base camp
Day 4: Summit Acatenango and return to antigua and chill rest of day
Day 5: go to lake atiticalan
day 6: chill at lake
Day 8: go to Guatemala City in morning and fly to flores/see tikal
Day 9: tikal
day 10: fly back

Is it worth it to add the extra day? Or is this all hopelessly cramped? I feel pretty good about the first 5 days since a day and a half exploring the city proper of antigua is enough (is this assumption correct?) and the volcano hike will be great. I wonder if I'm spending enough time in lake atiticalan/tikal tho. I read 2 days in tikal is enough, though you could do more. So my question is: is two days at lake atiticalan enough? I'd mostly want to hop on taxi boats and explore the villages and maybe do a hike one morning/sunset.
>>
And if I were to add an extra day where should I add it? Tikal? the lake? Antigua?
>>
>>2647218

How are you traveling? The towns may look close together on a map but it can take 10 hours just to get to the next town if you are doing overland.
>>
>>2647218
I've never been but Guatemala is on my todo list. This looks pretty similar to what my plan was.

Only thing is Tikal. It's a long ass drive there and an expensive ass flight back to America. I think it's more of a thing to do when you visit Belize.
>>
>>2647241
Busses/private transfer for everything except to flores/tikal which will be a plane

>>2647256
My plan is to get up early and drive to Guatemala City from the lake and fly to flores, do tikal, then fly back to the US via Guatemala City. If I had more time I'd exit through Belize.

What are some nice places to visit?

Never been to PA, have no interest in civil war shit or trains. I will not go to Philadelphia or Pittsburgh. I've already got a few botanical gardens picked out and I know I'm spending at least one night in Scranton. Recommendations for things like museums, nature preserves, and antique/vintage stores would be appreciated. Also some places to eat. Have a few days to kill so don't mind going out of the way so long as it's worth it.

78 is a much better drive than 80 through PA, at least until the Harrisburg area for sure. There are some okay state parks near Pocono Raceway and a place to rent guns, but there are at least two places you can do that on 78 too. The only thing that 80 has over 78 is the Delaware Water Gap.

There are many pretty waterfalls and covered bridges.

Doolittle Station is a restaurant, brewery + inn made out of old train cars. Has a museum too.

Also the Choke & Puke Diner which is actually pretty good lol

>>2646827
there's nothing on i80, everything is on the us22/PRR or us30/turnpike corridors.
plenty of trees though: pine creek gorge, kinzua bridge, any of the state forests and parks and game lands

For cheap cigarettes? Unusually good (or just unusual) cigarettes? For places with a relaxed attitude towards smoking cigarettes?

China is an obvious choice; they still smoke more than most countries, and regard indoor smoking bans (which are in force, at least on paper, in most cities) more as suggestions, frequently ignoring them. And they have both cheap and premium cigarettes, the former of which are extremely cheap, the latter of which can be startlingly expensive, but really excellent.

Elsewhere in Asia, the Vietnamese remain passionate smokers, and make a wide range of often very good, usually inexpensive, cigarettes. Indoor smoking is more effectively and thoroughly restricted there than it is in China, but there are comfortable open-air smoking areas in front of virtually any venue.

Korea makes a lot of unusual-looking and tasting smokes; I haven’t been in some years at this point, but I think I saw the widest range of flavored cigarettes I’ve ever seen on sale in Seoul if you like novelty. I tried something coffee-flavored, and something weirdly fruity; apple, maybe? They weren’t especially good, but they were amusing. Indoor smoking is mostly banned but there are designated smoking rooms and areas in many places.

The Turks still smoke a lot, even indoors sometimes, although I think it’s officially prohibited. Their good cigarettes are very good, their cheapest very badly manufactured but interesting—I tried the unfiltered version of something called TEKEL, which I believe is just the acronym for the national tobacco and salt monopoly, and the tobacco kept falling out but the flavor was striking and to me very pleasant. And they’ve obviously also got a local shisha tradition (narghile) if you like that kind of thing.

And also, smoking sucks, smells bad, and will literally kill you after making you impotent. Obviously, and obviously you know that. I smoked like a chimney for years and spent most of them regretting it.

I'd try the Arab world. They all chain smoke and usually seem to barely have an excise tax.
