What are the best cities a sub 180cm mid tier normie in his late 20s can experience a semblance of social life and milestone experiences? I am open to doing volunteer programs, masters, degrees, exchanges, etc. This isn't a chudcel post, I want to make changes in my life and rotting in my parents home isn't going to cut it. I have disposable income so money isn't a huge issue. Yes, I would like opportunities with women but it isn't a primary factor. No, I am not looking for thinly veiled responses related to geomaxxing or passport coper destinations like Asia, I would preferably want places that are outside North America but are white.
>>2848181not even totally sure about the question but god I hate everyone I am still literally just flipping burgers for fat bitches bc my family is such fucking trash holy shit literally ruined my whole damn life with their bullshit.JUST GO ANYWHERE. DO ANYTHING. FUUUUUCK. LIKE SHIT DUDE. YOU HAVE MONEY. DOOOO SOMETHIIIIINGlike fr dude I finally got my credit fixed, so I have like $50k and about $8k cash, and about 7k debt atm. And a car. But, that's literally it and I just quit my job bc of some really fucked shit. So, I will just still be here for the moment like shit is fucked someone basically tried to steal my car so I started getting mad at work and I just spent two years at that job and was about to transfer and the people there are shit, but the goal was simply to transfer. Now, idk if I can even get another half decent job around here bc idk at the very least they'll say no he's angry
I would really recommend Poland, specifically Krakow. I had an excellent time there and I found the women to be very nice to me. I also have some acquaintances in nearby areas of Poland and they are nice people. I’m mixed Polish tho so take that for what it’s worth.Yes this board can be very harsh anon, often me included. But you are not alone in being totally alienated in the West, and to some extent you aren’t entirely to blame. This phenomenon is so real that both old-school and new-school news can’t stop talking about it
>>2852134Krakow is INCREDIBLY full, though. It's a victim of overtourism and doesn't feel Polish at all now. It's like Disneyland Poland.Better off going to Silesia, Poznan, Lodz, etc.
>>2852134>specifically Krakow. I had an excellent time there and I found the women to be very nice to meYeah you will have excellent time with our women, especially if you are black or arab
>>2848181>I would preferably want places that are outside North America but are white.melbourne, full of faggot late bloomers like you or some eastern euro shithole where you can just buy friends by giving them alcohol and hope they don't beat you up for looking gay
Multi-millionaire inheritance bequeathed white millenial here. 35 yo no gf no friends family mostly dead. What's a good african country where I can volunteer and do some good? I want to give back to society but not the western freakshow society I live in. Is there somewhere safe in africa that needs help?
start a charity org if youre actually serious. you just going there to give handouts would be retarded and would be a waste like >>2850432 pointed out

Go volunteer in your home country you retarded faggot. Africa has been given 8 fucking Marshall plans, let that seep in. This sounds like a coomer thread. If you have to go to Africa to coom, it's over for you. I hope you get beheaded and eaten by a local tribe. I hate you insufferable faggots so much. You cant help niggers.
are road trips overrated? what are your road trip experiences?I feel tempted to just fuck off to balkans or some of the -stans, rent a car and drive around the mountains and smaller citiesthe freedom to go wherever whenever seems great but on the other hand I can see it devolving into just starting at the road half of the day and being exhausted from driving most of the time
The best roadtrips I've done were in Morocco and Oman. All wild camping, and with the girlfriend. It's a very detached way of interacting with the country, and for that reason I wouldn't do it alone, would be way too lonely. That's also why camping is a necessity; if you're just driving between hotels I wouldn't even call that travel.Obviously I like deserts. For the Morocco trip we rented a car with decent speakers and listened to Tinariwen's entire discography during the days we were driving through the desert. In Oman we only played Moby for some reason.>>2845720Do you want to motorbike the Karakoram in April with me anon? Serious question. Rentals cost about $15-20/day.>>2845877>big mountain goodI've lived on both coasts and I'd take a misty path thru a forest of sugarmaples over some crowded, sun-bleached trail in a pine monoculture
>>2846208I wouldn't go so far as to call it psychic damage, but it does make you feel alienated from the American culture of comfortable privileged affluence. Which is why I always disliked encountering other homeless car dwellers, because seeing them living in squalor in their beat-up old cars destroyed my own self-image of a unique adventurer who does what nobody else dares to do.>>2846333Walking in the woods in wintertime can be amazingly tranquil, especially after fresh snow. However, the general lack of wildlife and greenery cannot be ignored. Hike New England in a wet June, however, and you'll realize why the trailheads are all empty. The pest insects are an absolute plague. That's a problem you don't encounter in the cold months. >>2848148Whenever I go on a roadtrip with somebody else, they are always impatient to wrap it up and part ways. Enduring my company for any extended period of time really makes them dislike me...which is why I have embraced solo travel so resolutely, refusing even to go on daytrip outings with other people as a general rule.>>2845877I likewise enjoy the eastern forests more than the Instagram hotspots of the west, for the same reason as anon does. They are more biodiverse, more akin to the forests of my ancestral Europe, and free of annoying tourists who couldn't care less about nature and only want to take pictures for bragging rights.
>>2848388>daytrip outingseither the people you hang out with are super retarded or your retarded if you cant handle going places with someone for less then a day
Last year did 5k km trip around Spain with miata and really enjoyed.Now want go to Nordkapp with miata, just after new year.
>>2845516Oman as a wild card. The exchange rate is tough but once you're in everything is priced accordingly.You can camp anywhere you like pretty much, the roads are good and it's the size of Italy. Just go in winterWhat the fuck have they done to the CAPTCHA
Where should I make sure to go for a King Arthur themed trip through Wales and England. I really love history and the old welsh poems so I want to go see the places from the myths. I have about a week or a little bit more. Do you have any recommendations for this trip?
>>2853571glastonbury (supposedly the location of some of the myths)winchester (the great hall has a replica of the round table)bodiam castle (filming location for monty python and the holy grail)several places have claimed to be the location of camelot, there is a whole wiki article about them
Anyone ever been? Might have an opportunity to go soon.Any tips, must sees, highlights, etc?I read it's ok to visit the major spots, and its only the borders and rando places which require permits, etc.Thinking of flying on to Astana next. Fly Arystan has flights for like 80EUR, which is prettty decent.
Hey /trv/, I’m looking to take February off to ride Amtrak around parts of the U.S. I’ll be taking these routes for sure: >Empire Builder>Coast Starlight>California Zephyr. Which others are worth considering?
>>2853093They were offering to waive all licensing fees for the technology, which essentially WAS a billion+ dollar subsidy. Normally, the licensing fee would've been massive. Then they had $5B in VERY lower interst loans being offered on top of that.The total value of that subsidy would've been at LEAST $1B and likely multiple.
>>2844463That rail map has some frustrating gaps.>no New Orleans to Tampa!>no outer ring around Chicago connecting St Paul, Omaha, Kansas City, St Louis, Cincinatti, Cleveland>no western hub
>>2853114Its just not that relevant cause we all know based on every infrastructure project in the us in the last 20 years that the project even projected at 11 billion total would have been closer to 25 billion by the time everyone between washington and delaware took their cut
>>2844632No, it's garbage. And your destination are car dependent , which defeats a lot of what makes long distance train travel worthwhile in other countries: not having to get a rental car at the end.
Heads up, Emprie builder regularly cancels in February due to it being too cold to run the trains. Running a train at -40 with a strong headwind effectively making it -60-80F on the parts shuts down trains quick.
Thinking about moving to Myanmar. Burnt out in Thailand with drinking and shitty relationships. Apartments in Yangon seem really expensive but maybe Mandalay or Naypyidaw would be an option.Anyone been there? How's the dating (for serious relationship)? Anyone worked there? I'm a teacher (proper) I bet they're struggling like fuck to fill positions
there's a long report about travelling in different parts of Burma that gets you some impression (although the author seems to be Asian)I myself loved the country ~30 years ago, Shwedagon is utterly magic, and we attended a big celebration of spirits in Taungbyon north of Mandalay, dancing with families after ritually getting drunk on Mekhong-RedBull. After finding out we had seen mostly the usual places (+Bagan and Inle Lake) we spent the last day getting on a random boat from Rangoon to the delta where there were only natives, getting off just somewhere after two hours and landed in a village where there was a funeral going on, everybody was smiling at us and communication was no problem.https://theconversation.com/huge-online-scam-operations-are-flourishing-in-war-torn-myanmar-i-travelled-there-to-find-out-why-271701

All right, so when is OP's flight to Myanmar? We're all tired of bullshit threads that do not deliver on the trips they talk about.
>>2853391Seconded. It's /trv/, not /int/ or /bant/
I don't care about internet, culture, things to do, vibes, whatever. I just want the cheapest, safest possible place where I can stay as long as possible without moving around and just have my savings last as long as possible to have food and shelter and watch youtube.Is there any city where I can live for like $400 a month indefinitely just sitting in my room? With safe, cheap cooked food readily available nearby?
>>2852637>Rent a room in a house with people as sad as youthe entire fucking point of leaving is not having to experience this
>>2853096I'm pretty sure there's an Israeli NEET rotting in the room next to me. I saw a C Form at the front desk filled out with Israel as the home country, and the fucker watches TV at a high volume at the worst hours. Today he started watching TV at 4 fucking 30 AM. >>2853224There are close to zero apartments in the quaint small towns of middle America. It's all single-family homes. Cheap rental apartments are only found in blighted neighborhoods chock-full of degenerate poors (whether working-class or welfare queens). And color me skeptical of those low advertised rental rates. I bet you'll have to imprison yourself in an annual lease, then pay a security deposit, then pay monthly utilities and association fees on top of it. It's also safe to assume that those cheap apartments are located in an undesirable fringe neighborhood of the city, meaning that you'll also have to buy a car to live there. Before you know it, your life choices have trapped you in a generic dead-end loser life, living paycheck to paycheck and unable to even entertain the idea of packing your bags and heading overseas.

>>2854991That's far away from Hersheypark
Florida parks are absolute flooded with Brazilians at the moment
>>2854991It is because Penn State has a regional hospital in Hershey with a helipad. There is also a small aircraft airport 7 miles away.Because of that they need FAA and township approval for anything over 200 ft. They got it for Candymonium but had to make it under 220 feet, and cannot really go beyond that even if township might technically allow up to 350 ft. They apparently have had rejections before for height.So a giga is out of a question, let alone something Ka sized, and why it was such a good counter to Hershey. GA is the only park in the northeast with the resources and clearance to build something that high. So demolishing it, let alone not making a proper giga coaster yet, is very questionable decision making when your main competition cannot match up.
>>2855074Sounds mostly made up–a helipad almost 2 miles away and an airport 7 miles away aren't going to cause the FAA any consternation; structures 200' or over require a navigational beacon on the top but not necessarily FAA approval; that leaves local rules to be the limiting factor, if such ordinances really even exist. As a matter of public record, they should be able to be found or at least referenced online.The tallest ride in the park is the Kissing Tower at 330 feet. It can be presumed that another ride of at least that height can go in there in the future.
>>2855085>>2855079It deals with the scheduled flight patterns and where they start to descent. This is not made up either, they very openly had to get FAA approval for Candymonium to go over 200 ft.https://www.pennlive.com/life/2018/09/hersheypark_new_roller_coaster.html>The tallest ride in the park is the Kissing Tower at 330 feet.Kissing Tower was 70s so this was built before any of these restrictions. As mentioned they theoretically could get up to 350 feet if they got approval under township guidelines with FAA approval, but they likely would not be able to build Kissing Tower now.Question you should ask, if height was not an issue why would they have not made a giga vs making two somewhat similar hypers?

Which cities have the most overrated nightlife/social life? I'll start:>NYC>too expensive to do literally anything>people are either smug joo boys, good lifer trustfunders, or finance bros>ratio of women is vastly overstated, and decent chunk of uggos at any function. Also noticed Americans are way less willing to mingle with strangers and if they do its very superficial at best.>everyone is super irony poisoned, obnoxious, and smug>Despite higher number of tallfags and chads in Europe, for some reason NYC women are more heightpilled and annoying about it. >Women in general more cold and offputting yet simultaneously loud and obnoxious, despite the stereotypes I found German women to require less jestermaxxing and more approachable in bar settings. Also just generally more uninteresting people.>General annoying amerimutt customs like having to tip your uggo dyke bartenders, overpriced drinks, superficial small talk that leads nowhere.>Doesn't need to be stated but way too many joggers at night in nightlife areas, heavy coping from locals about safety in generalThose are my general observations after living in NYC for about 2 months. I never understood the memes about how it is some paradise for single men, in general there is a cut throat atmosphere among men I dont really notice compared to my time spent in most European countries. Unless you are super nichemaxxed or a decent looking tall guy and land a really good paying job in finance there are much better places even in non sexpat countries to try your luck in. I think if you are a white normie in looks you are better off just going to some mid sized European city with a large uni population. The neurotypicality levels in the US are also crazy, if you don't even slightly fit the "mold" i.e. super fake cheerful and fratty you are immediately ostrasized. I never really felt this in Germany and felt I could be more myself.
Berlin. Clubs far between and they will deny you if not dressed like a degenerate. Also still depends on cash, and that's third world tier to me.
>>2842843Budapest.There's some cool places (like any city) but all the ruin bars are huge tourist traps and the clubs (especially the more popular ones) are complete dogshit. Most drug dealers are scammers and Hungarians aren't the most friendly and welcoming so you'll basically be limited to interacting with tourists who are mostly just dickhead brits and aussies on lads holidays.If you're a tourist passing through it's good to visit and spend a night or two but for nightlife Prague, Krakow, Bratislava, Zagreb and hell even Vienna all have more to offer than that fucking bore of a city.
>>2853139Pretty much agreed. Vienna is fucking zzzzzzz though.
>>2842843>OMG you need to be a literal psycho to find a good woman in NYC man!!And someone else said that Australia and now Vienna is bad as well? I can't believe this shit. Just so many assumptions, stereotypes or generalizations. Also, women focused on their careers and looks are just like psychos as well, they are searching for the right guy and all that. Just go to the local gym and observe, women who go to the gym have a prevalence to be fucking psychos, make no mistake. At least you'll get fit by being jealous of these beautiful shores. Whores.How much time have you guys spent on these places anyway?
>>2853120Yeah, I came away disappointed from Berlin. Seems only worthwhile if you're an itk fag who loves railing mkat
Alaska, any good? I have a high likelihood of being stationed in Anchorage.
>>2852077For a couple months there’s 0-4 hours of sun depending how far north you are. It’s endless dark, cold, and gray. We’re animals. It affects us and messes with neurotransmitters leading to depression. Suicide will always be high in places like Alaska, Russia, Seattle, etc.
>>2852824What's the Alaskan sunshine holiday of choice to break up the winter blues? Surely there's that 'one resort' where all the Alaskans charge into on charter flights.
>>2852780Alcoholism is just absolutely bizarre. It doesn't even give a rush of ecstasy like drugs do, alright maybe a little on the start. But then everything from your stomach to your head starts to get fucked and you keep drinking anyway. You wake up and you don't even remember who you are. Truly, the addiction of choice to live on a frozen dark hellhole, or any other hellhole for that matter.
>>2853171/druk/ thread when?
>>2853174Oh, I wish.The sex scene with Maria Bonnevie... fuck.
Looking to Travel Africa in the spring. Ive been everywhere continent wise except for Africa. Ive narrowed down my choices too:KenyaUgandaRwandaSenegalTanzania Safety and decent infrastructure are my biggest concerns. I'm white so I'll know I'll stick out (which will be a plus in some cases). Want to explore as much as possible, especially with a local woman so I don't get tourist taxed on every little thing. Ive searched a lot of info using 4plebs, Kenya seems to be hit or miss but looks like the most recommended. Looking at coombasa rather than Nariobi. Rwanda looks very interesting considering the history. Senegal I've heard is expensive. Uganda might be the dark horse here and not a clue about Tanzania. Any tips or experiences is much appreciated! I also only speak English, no French.
>>2852169I've heard Ghana is a good shout if youre looking for safety and authenticity without all the bullshit African Gap Yar charity tourism shite
There are places you can visit in Kenya that would get you kidnapped or killed, avoid the north where pastoralists roam freely with guns raiding each other for cattle, or the north east near somalia's border. Most of the population live within 100 to 300 km within the mombasa to uganda railway. The rest is arid and empty. Tanzania has become a political hotbed, the government will probably restrict your movements. Uganda is more like Kenya but less arid and more crowded. Rwanda is a police state masquerading as some democracy. I have no idea about senegal.
Senegal is good because corruption and bureaucratic BS is almost nonexistent which is impressive given all their neighbors are failed states. Also visa is jut a free stamp on arrival. Otherwise everything there is mid, the food, the nature, cities, all mid.I have not been to Ghana but it looks like the easiest place to rent a motorbike without hassle so I may go do that this spring.
>>2852925Is Senegal realistic without French?
>>2852944no, it'd be a disaster. But you could learn french, you know. Or join me in Ghana, serious offer.
>the best elements of India and Thailand combined with less of the negatives
I remember living here for a month. Cool surfing Hotspot in the south/west coast? but I didnt really get to explore as much of the country as I was mostly bed ridden to a spine injury. There was power outages and a gas shortage due to political unrest or some shit, and the places I rented out were full of mosquitoes, there was some kind of poo literal shit in the mosquitoe net at one of the gueshouses lmao. Im sure you could get much better accommodation paying a bit more but I was always trying to pay as little as possible when I was 22 and wanted to slum it for some fucking reason. Oh yeah also the drivers are crazy as fuck due to a mixture of south Asian buses and tuktuks mixed with Slavic suicidal DNA tourists with motorbike rentals all trying to pass you at once. Pretty cool place if your not injured honestly, the food in my experience mostly sucked and if your not planning on fucking another tourist I have no idea how to get in bed with a Sri Lankan girl.
>>2851388South Asian people are quite pleasant to be around and interact with; it's the incompetence and shoddiness of their systems which is the most frustrating aspect of travel here. It's a good thing I have a strong mind and didn't fall for the relentless anti-Indian propaganda plastered all over the Internet by seething jealous losers in Western countries who are full of burning hatred for everyone and everything. >>2852699NPCs from Western countries who have always lived a sheltered life and never had to pay attention to their surroundings can easily feel overwhelmed by the streets here. If you're naturally alert and responsive to your environment, you will deal with the traffic like you've lived here all your life.
>>2850252>Surely there are some that would spread their legs easily for an attractive white guy?I don't bring this up often because it sickens me, but here is a little secret people on this website don't seem to know about.In Sri Lanka, there are many nice surf towns. In the more touristed ones, many European women shack up with local Sri Lankan surfer dudes and use them as toy boys. It's not even boomer bongs like in Senegal, it's women in their 20s and 30s. It ruined the trip for me.On the other hand, most Sri Lankan women are very conservative and will rarely speak to someone outside their family/family's circle. You may have some minor luck in Colombo though.
>>2852819Until you name locations, this smells like some type of weird incel fantasy
>>2852867Most prominent in Mirissa but it appears in other surf towns too.
Spending a week a friend's house in Venetto Italy. Went to Venice, Bologna, Rovigo, Verona, Revana, Forli.Pros:- Not insanely hot- Amazing Food- Beer is not as bad as I thought it woul be.- Everyone looks good, the wops are actually white.- Surprisingly affordable if you aren't dumb.- People are ridiculously friendly, not used to this since I grew up with southerners and they're absolute scum.- Verona is the most beautiful city I've ever seen.- Trains are decent.Cons:- Niggers- Jeets- AbdulsComment too long.

I think they're playing the Italian version of Call Her Daddy on screens and loudspeakers in the underground metro station.
>>2796749Going to Italia this spring for the first time, flying into Rome, going to do the obvious stuff like Colosseum, Roman Forum, Trevi fountain, Pantheon. What else do I need to know? I want to see some cools sites that are not frequented by tourists also. And hoping to find some more local hole in the wall restaurants rather than places that all the tourists cram into.
>>2852247Everything in the center is for tourists. Unless your a gourmand or something then just eat whats around, its good enough. The really great food is in villages/towns out in the countryside and it sounds like you haven’t got the time to roam around out there. If you can be bothered, get the train to ostia or tivoli, theres ruins etc at both. Hadrians villa is really worth it too.
>>2852249I am planning to get outside of Rome for part of my trip also, so yeah hoping to visit some of the more rural countryside areas or along the Amalfi coast.
>>2796749Go to Palermo
