Where are you favorite places to visit in Manhattan? Someone here gave me a great pizza recommendation last time I went. Haven't done much on the west side besides Grey's Papaya. It's still gonna be cold when I go so I'm doing a Broadway show
>>2853376>Seed oils in seltzer
>>2853376Some good steakhouses
>>2853382>Tiki chick>Otto's shrunken headGonna check these out. I really dug Paradise Lost in Manhattan. I love tiki bars!
>>2853587What you mean you don't like getting frisked by security to hang out with a group of 50 year old straight women from Nebraska while paying $20 for well liquor at the Stonewall Inn?
>>2853393dam son. you wrong. but I like your style
ITT: We crown the king of SEA. Tell your craziest story while in Southeast Asia, could be about anything.
>>2853802Usually just hanging around the barangy drinking red horse. Or partying at some nightclub. It’s not like they have to get up and go to work in the morning. So it’s either go back to their shack and floor mattress and maybe fuck the local trike driver - or get dicked down by a decent white guy in a nice condo with a functional shower.
>>2847015Southeast Asians have different tooth structure than whites. Most people would consider it less attractive. >no meat on their bonesAnon, the world outside tropical Asia is FULL of thicc busty girls if that's what you want. Lay off the slender-shaming already.

Is it worth it to visit Vancouver BC as a tourist? What about life in Vancouver BC - is it a good place to live?
I live in Vancouver. Some days I hate it. But after traveling to 42 countries, and many of those "most livable" cities, I think it's one of the best places in the world even with all the negatives. We have the absolute best Summers of anywhere in the world. It's beautiful here, the access to nature is some of the best of any big cities, the food scene is genuinely fantastic.Let me know if any of you have questions about Vancouver or the region.
>>2854699How do you afford it
>>2854701Honestly, all of Canada is expensive. All big cities in western countries are expensive. You just have to manage. Either get a high paying job or make some sacrifices. Lots of free or cheap activities in Vancouver in the warmer months, and I'm a bit of hermit in the winter.
>>2854709Montreal has all the amenities of Vancouver (maybe smaller mountains, but way more of them), and it's 3x cheaper. I pay 800$ all included for a studio in a central neighborhood.
>>2854774>more mountainsThat's quite surprising. I thought BC was mountain land, and Montreal was in forest land near the lakes. Guessed it was a bit more warmer Siberia tier with swamps and shit.
Singapore is the worst fucking country you could go within the entire region of Southeast Asia>ExperiencesThe fuck do you even experience over here? Most people don't want to speak to you in the first place>BuildingsThere aren't any, the one good building is a war memorial, there are no battlefield sites, this country has no history>WomenThe men here all go for Vietnamese women instead>Public transportThe public transport here was excellent, I'll give them that>StoresFood, tech, and a few bars, that's it, no libraries, nothing, it's fucking empty>FoodArguably one of the few good things about the country, but if you don't follow their specific rules, they'll fine you>CultureThey use a dialect of English that sounds retardedComment too long.

Flying to Japan next week after a hellish stay here, holy shit no wonder this place is barely talked about there is fucking nothing outside Seoul and a few specific spots worth a damn>oh you want to go to that cool shrine/temple you saw a picture of yeah hope you got an ARC card because you need to book it on our shitty government run app that barely works>Ha paying with visa? chump, not accepted here why you not have Kakao pay? Oh yeah you need ARC for that lol.>oh that cool thing you saw of these temples/shrines/buildings? Yeah those are closed for uhh idk... Oh no it doesn't look like that really except one short part of the season that lasts for a week or so>every subway smells like kimchi+garlic+fish even if you're on the 5am train it somehow still smells>every historic site is basically a reconstruction of what it might have been way back when Korea was a farming nation>Itaewon is a fucking joke(wasn't expecting much but damn), drinking culture is okay(?) at best>want to go up mountain path or hike get asked "what are you doing here?" by every passing 50 year old park hand?>half the websites barely work when using an English function if you're a foreigner some shit is just completely off the table to attempt even if you want to pay cash>korean men are some of the biggest incels I've met, it's like /pol/ irl>every point of interest you try to find boils down to shopping mall, shopping mall connected to train station, or shopping mall+amusement park>try to find some other tourist tips but it all boils down to "Seoul->DMZ->Gangnam!!! and maybe Jeju">women are decent but have insanely weird expectations on things or full on crazyThe only thing I can say going for this place is that it's cheap in transportation, beer, and food, but I feel like I spend more just to not be bored to death here. I finally see why this place is only referenced for a visa reset. I got one last weekend here, is there something I am missing? Staying Itaewon was a mistake...
The worst fucking thing about seoul is they have a city ordinance where they cant have their A/C above or below a certain set point during certain months of the year. Hotels are exempt from their ordinance but theyre cheap bastards so they disable the cold air in the winter and blast 85F fucking heat into all rooms and hallways 24/7. If you ask about it they always just tell you to turn the blower off and open the pathetically small window. Its impossible to find a hotel that doesn't follow this shitty practice.

>>2854229Westerners love to look down on Asians for supposedly lacking environmental awareness, yet in reality, you yourselves couldn't care less about wasting fossil fuels, littering cigarettes, or dumping trash.
>>2847306No it's not safe you should go to NK instead
Hello fellow travelers.As a non-American, I want to travel to the Midwest but I am indecisive on which city should I visit. My options are Cincinnati (which was the very first city I visited in America back in 2013), Columbus, Indianapolis and Chicago (just outside the downtown, I have read enough on how unsafe is Chicago) and perhaps Springfield, IL. I am looking for safe places to drink, museums and especially rural areas with well-meant people (aka whites). I don't like places like Miami, NY, LA or places filled with Hispanics or Blacks, so I want to be sure to go to places that are worth visiting
>>2853924I grew up in Wisconsin, lived in Indianapolis and Chicago.Chicago is safe as long as you avoid the west side and south side of Chicago. In downtown you are fine, just watch out for the schizophrenic homeless people which are in every American city (even Indianapolis/Columbus/Cincinnati etc.). The river walk is amazing, River North is a good neighborhood for drinks, lots of amazing art deco buildings downtown.Indianapolis is pretty small and average. I totally understand what you mean by Indianapolis is the ultimate average Midwest city and I agree.Cincinnati is pretty cool with the sky bridges and other art deco, since you've been there before idk if I'd recommend it. You've already seen it and maybe you get to re-live some memories and have a good time, maybe you get depressed seeing how things have changed (not saying the city has gone to shit but this is just kinda how life moves on).>safe places to drink, museums and especially rural areas with well-meant people (aka whites)Why not visit a college town? If you don't mind college aged kids this would meet your criteria pretty well. Bloomington, IN is just a 1 hour drive from Indianapolis and it's a beautiful campus you can walk around. Go to Kilroy's on Kirkwood for a drink, go to Buffa Louies for some amazing wings, if you can watch a basketball game that would be very fun (or watch the game at Kilroy's).
>>2854056OP here. I'd love to visit Bloomington, IN as I remember when I was a kid I wanted to study there (obviously the college fares were too expensive for my family, so I had to stay here studying in my country). >You've already seen it and maybe you get to re-live some memories and have a good time, maybe you get depressed seeing how things have changed I hope it hasn't gone full Detroit mode, but I have read that half the population is black, so I want to avoid those areas. I can't believe a flight from my home country to CVG is more expensive than going to Chicago. So perhaps I will go to Illinois and stay at a town outside the metro area. Thanks for the information, friend.
>>2853924Columbus is BORING AF. Chicago is basically Gotham but I still think worth a visit. If this is during the summer id visit towns along lake Michigan (in Michigan or Wisconsin). I used to live in Detroit....i wouldnt visit.
>>2854056what is worth seeing in cincinnati?
> I don't like places like Miami, NY, LA or places filled with Hispanics or Blacksyeah that's pretty much all US cities dude
>Good train public transport>Plenty of social events (run clubs?), not just nightlife>High paying jobs available>Variety in cuisinesWhat American metropolitan area would you recommend?
>>2848081NYC metro.
>>2854562Oh, look, another inbred Texas keyboard warrior clutching his AR-15 like it's his micro-dick while spewing homophobic shit from his mom's basement. News flash, retard: Texas was a shithole long before any Californians showed up, y'all been electing corrupt cowboys and turning your state into a grid-failing, abortion-banning dystopia all on your own. BLM and "Orange Man Bad"? That's just code for "I'm too dumb to handle basic human rights or not electing a con artist." Stay mad in your containment zone of ignorance, you backwards fuck and maybe one day you'll evolve past thinking "fag it up" is an insult instead of a sad projection of your repressed fantasies.
>>2854700kek, this is gold
>>2854562>>2854700Pedro is also just coping hard because Brandon Sailer from San Diego is a more reliable R voter than Sanjit Martinez of Dallas.The best thing TX has going on is being a red state with white people that aren't retarded (contra its neighbors) and a good deal of state-level YIMBYism that tard wrangles some of the worst blue city impulses (which is important because left to its own devices, Republican rule creates dying rural shitholes). Of course, if they enact a Texan version of Prop 13, you might as well go get a Californian salary and have nice weather.
>>2854704>Sanjit Martinez of DallasLOL
Was it a psyop in the end? Cannot imagine the fun of going to a crowded smelly building in the dark, paying unreasonable surcharge for drinks, and getting rejected by girls for the night.Some people actually factor in "nightlife" when deciding where to live in the future.
>>2848258It was fun when I was an idiot in my early 20s, now I hate it.
>go to clubs>figure out which people with tables get no huzz>chat them up and mooch liquor off them>try to "wingman" them(get them to buy me and foids drinks)>drink for free all nightfeels good to be a nefarious unc
>>2848399this. btw your wife went to clubs and has had 10+ one night stands.
>>2848399I'm not Chad but a cute girl kissed me a nightclub a couple years ago so I chase that high every time I go out. She just pulled me onto her face, I don't have the balls to approach women so it hasn't happened since
>>2848258It's fun to explore nightclubs in a new city with random hostel friends
>literally fucking dies
>>2854424just like they ruined the malls, and going to the movies, and going to theme parks, and....

Is it actually dying or just slow down of growth.?
>>2854679>Is it actually dying or just slow down of growth.?you forgot to throw in a saar to really land it
I'm at this airbnb that i booked for almost 3 weeks, the host was really nice, but the place is honestly shit. It has this odd lingering smell that i can't stand, and its dirty despite reviews saying it was clean. The room is cold, the shower water is barely warm. The bed has hairs and tiny bugs in it. The area around the hotel is also full of junkies and crazy people. I feel so uncomfortable here. It says i can cancel and get a partial refund, i've only been here for 2 days so I would get like 80% back whcih i would use to book a hotel like Marriot or Hilton for a week and get smashed. Do I just hit the cancel button, leave the keys and bail without saying a word?? is there anything the host can do to come after or charge me extra money. I'm never coming back to this town again (it's fucking awful as well) and will probably never use airbnb again.
>>2854649don't hesitate, get out and report the host to airbnb, take lots of pictures as proof and communicate as the other poster said, you need to stand up for yourself sometimes, shitty hosts are a blight
>>2854649>The bed has hairs and tiny bugs in it.take a bunch of pictures/videos and then get the fuck out.
>>2854649Brother, the moment you see bed bugs, get the fuck out. Crime and junkies are bad but bed bugs are worse. They have some weird effect where you'll wake up months or even years from now, panicking and thinking that they're biting you. They wreck your brain.Cancel and get the refund. There's a good chance those bugs will get inside your luggage, and if that happens, you're fucked for life. They're harder to get rid of than cockroaches. They're resistant to basically any poison and they can hibernate without food for a full fucking year.
This happened to me twice in a year with airbnb, this is why I no longer use the app. Hotels are safer, cheaper, and there's less bullshit drama like this.Also bedbugs are worse than your worst nightmare, strongly consider burning everything you have with you and don't take it home with you, trust me it will be FAR CHEAPER to replace what you're traveling with than to deal with a bedbug infestation at your home.
>>2854668You just move out if that happens. Move, leave all your shit on the curb (wrap it in plastic so the city doesn't ticket you for spreading those things), check into a hotel, get clothes delivered from amazon, keep them in a sealed bag, put your old clothes in a plastic bag, take a shower, put on the new clothes without touching any of your old shit, and take your bagged old stuff to the garbage chute.
Are the best places to travel, locations out of your own country?
You can find interesting locations to visit within your own country, but 99% of the time it's a lot easier to just pick another country. The novelty of exoticism is hard to beat.
>>2854621more exotic, warmer and cheaper, so yes
>>2854621A lot of people visit Canada for our mountains and lakes, I feel as though Canada is big enough it's excellent at most, master of none. There's always a country that does it better than Canada, but if you have 3 weeks to a month, it's a good place to see it all. You can see the majority of it in between Alberta and BC for mountains and lakes, and SK for lakes and forests.Or just go to BC and experience a very good version of it all.
>>2854621It does have the benefit of no immigration hassles. A lot less jetlag if any. If you decided you really liked the place moving there is a tenable idea. Staying domestic is very underrated on /trv/.
What are your predictions about the state of travel in the coming years? Do you see a decline or rise of normies continuing trends of mass tourism? From personal observations it seems like alot of zoomies who have disposable income are jetsetting, while there is a noticable decline in boomer places like Vegas. People were doomposting about indians and chinese taking over the gaps but there are definitely less of them in numbers in places I frequent, barring uberjeets and low service workers. I feel like even last year I noticed way more of my normie social feeds flooded with travel posts (le going to japan omg quirky midlife crisis, reels about china, girls going to thailand for yoga etc), now I rarely see or hear from any of my circles about trips they have been on or are planning. It seemed that there was a peak after Coof blue balls but now it has reached below the baseline, based off the overall vibes I see and observe. Iirc thailand numbers were also down this year. Hell I even see less doomposts here about sexpest spots being overrun with weekend warrior asians and young chads.
>>2848570You and every single other zoomer is doing that, apparently. It's the ultimate NPC destination.
>>2852408>ultimate NPC destinationWhich makes it ultra-comfy if you just want to go around doing your own thing, no interaction with other people apart from goods & services transactions. Other people might as well be a bunch of automatons; they do their thing and you do yours.>>2852335>culturally toxicYeah, like a bunch of alcoholic whoremongering boomers were somehow wholesome and beneficial visitors compared to Chinese tourcattle.>>2852364My first month overseas for this travel season is looking to wrap up at $1180 USD. This includes the cost of tourist visa and 13500 km of flying to the other side of the world, and represents the fruits of 59 hours of labor. That's barely over seven workdays of menial seasonal labor. But yeah, go ahead and tell me how travel has gotten more expensive than it used to be in terms of a laborer's wages. What a crock of shit. So many tards here like to spout off as if they were worldly wise Real Travelers, but I've been active here long enough to see the truth. You are regurgitating some propaganda you've read on this board or heard from some yappity YouTube faggot. It's not your lived experience, and you have no way to verify its truthfulness. But you repost it anyway.
>>2852335This is what happens when you never leave the basement and get all your information about the outside world from /pol/.
>>2852336>Western tourists not even being able to get visas for other Western counties.Wut?
>>2847145>make 98% more money than anyone else in my country>anywhere I go I can completely avoid shell shocked jet lagged fuck tard tourists>still choose to enjoy the tourist experience in most countries I visitYou're a tourist, you're not some super /trv/eler. You're literally part of the problem so quit being a faggot and get with it. Be the least offensive American piece of shit you can be and keep pretending to be Canadian and enjoy.
First time travelling to Vietnam, planning on going for about little more than 2 weeks, between mid/late February to early March. (I believe it might be chaos during Tet) I've started looking online at places, I've been considering to stay in the southern area, I heard its war during the specified period. Someone recommended Phu Quoc for the tropical beaches/island vibe, but I keep seeing reviews online saying the beaches are full of trash and rats. Should I go to Con Dao instead? I heard its quieter overall. I'm not a young buck any more, I don't care about going to nightclubs, but I don't want it to be a ghost town at night time. For example, last year I went to the Philippines, Coron was quieter overall compared to El Nido, but after 9pm it was dead, at least El Nido had something going on in the evenings. Any additional advice is welcome
What is this state like? Whats the culture like? Please tell me some fun things to do in Delaware, for someone without a car.
This just made it occur to me that I have never met someone from, or ever heard anything about Delaware. Truly a mystery state
Southern Delaware (Rehoboth Beach to Fenwick Island) has beaches. Central Delaware has Dover, the state capital. North Delaware has Wilmington which is just a suburb of Philadelphia. LSD (Lower Slower Delaware) is more country and conservative vs. the north but Rehoboth Beach is full of LGBT. Other than that Delaware is just an amalgamation of Pennsylvania and Maryland without the mountains.
>>2854552Wait a couple years and you'll get the Joe Biden presidential library. Until then, Nemours Estate is pretty top tier neat if you're into gilded age mansions, and Wilmington is a nice peaceful town. Other than that, there is genuinely no reason to ever visit Delaware unless you already happen to be in the area for some other reason. Actually if you live in PA, NJ, MD area, a lot of people like to go shopping in Delaware due to no sales tax, so it has that going for it as well.
>>2854559I was thinking of taking a big trip to north carolina to philadelphia and stopping at delaware along the way
>>2854558This sums it up.But the state is the opposite of others in that its not a great place to visit but I wouldn't mind living there.
Adam The Woo has gone on adventures for you and he didn't even ask your mom if you wanted to see his zany journies you would go to Adam The Woo.comAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIITTTTT SSSOOONN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1974-2025
