>6 gorillion "EUROPE IS OVER" videos with thumbnails of him gasping in front of a stock photo of women with burqas>Sort by oldest and see videos of him loving India years ago but he went back to bandwagon on India hate and now "INDIA SMELLS BAD" videos are his 2nd biggest earners after "EUROPE IS DEAD" videosHonestly solo female travel blogs are a way better source of information than any of these retards on youtube.
>>2888041You clearly haven't been to Japan post COVID. It's full of jeets now. Even my gf was wondering why there were so many. Better to visit Korea, China or Vietnam.
>>2888046They tightened the visa rules recently, just like Thailand. Expect less jeets in the future.
>>2885195>this man posts hatebait videos>watches a woman's videos instead>???
I love shitbrown muzzrat tears
>>2888046Vietnam has been flooded with jeets for a while now
Anyone have experience with the 6 month digital nomad visa in Japan?
>>2888022America has countless major box office movies about teens having sex on screen.
Anyone booked an apartment in Sapporo for a monthly rental? They seem very expensive in the summer, i think I'll stick to Osaka even though summers are too hot there.
>>2888023Epstein: The Movie
>>2878834None of those things matter to a tourist you literal shut-in retard.
>>2888022Your pedohysteria is purely performative and impresses nobody. It will earn you nothing. All your fake outrage represents is your projection of your own insecurity in the face of what you believe to be changing social norms.You understand and are attracted to youth and beauty, but being a coward, you are terrified by the sudden swing of neopuritan sentiment towards it, and so you make your gay little performance whenever you can.But know this: you fool nobody.There is also nothing wrong with finding young women beautiful. Stop embarrassing yourself.
So what's the theory anons? I find it a little hard to believe that this nordic just went into the woods and killed himself after an argument with his family. Could there be foul play involved? Maybe some browns who jumped him or some kind of /x/ shit? Why doesn't the police want to disclose the cause of death?
>>2887683>Search efforts were hampered by a powerful storm that swept through the area following his disappearanceHe went in alone at night to a place he hadn't been before with little to no planning and there may have been bad weather. Accident happen.
>>2887991Things can get bad fast if you make a small mistake in bad conditions. My friend and I were walking in Cappadocia and went off trail for a minute, the ground ended up crumbling underneath both of us and we went skidding down a steep slope. It was hard to crawl back up because the soil was super dry and brittle, and it ended up being no big deal, but many people have died doing shit like that
>>2887991There's also "murder" hornets, bears, centipedes, snakes, monkeys, rabid tanukis. Who knows what could've happened.>>2887997I heard of experienced hikers getting blown off a mountain in Colorado before.
>>2888003>wears a save the bees shirt>gets stung to death by a nest of hornetspottery
>>2888003Bears are rampaging through cities now. Tourists don't realize how bad it is and think it's like their own country.>just shout and the bear will run away bro>just don't get near the mama bear's cubs and it won't bother you broThe bears here have no fear of humans and see them as prey. People are being killed in towns by bears. They look small, but they're roided up hungry pitbulls with massive claws. Hiking is increasingly dangerous because bear populations are exploding and there isn't enough food for them. Going into a forest alone with nobody else around is even worse. Going into a forest alone at night is basically begging to be killed.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZQ5Qbq6qthEJust look at these crazy fuckers. Though if it was a bear, they probably would've reported it as a bear death. If it wasn't suicide, slipping and falling just the wrong way is more likely. Especially considering the weather. Even locals slip and die all the time. Young people hiking in groups too. The mountains in Japan are shorter than many American and European mountains, but the inclines are more intense. If you misstep or are walking around at night and can't see where you're stepping, you're sliding down 100 feet until you whack your head on a tree. On casual American and European hiking trails, I could walk off a trail any time and just wander around. Even the most casual Japanese hiking paths have steep inclines.
Going to Gdańsk for a weekend. What can you do there?
Stare at concrete and bricks
>>2886020It's always like this. Bunch of young American wehrboos seething on behalf of the people who knew better than to hold pointless grudges. My family was originally from what is now Western Ukraine, so they got the whole Stalin's package tour deal (exile to Siberia -> permitted to move to Kazakhstan -> resettled in Western Poland). My great-grandfather took over a remote farmstead near the Neisse. One day an old German couple rolled up in a car and said it used to be their home and they were curious to see what it looks like today. So he took them on a tour of the place, opened a bottle of vodka and invited them to dinner. They visited him a couple times afterwards and mailed each other occasional letters until they all eventually died.People understood it was a war and all the misfortune that had happened to them was largely out of control of anyone who didn't end up in history books.
>>2881452>>2881615Warsaw is like TokyoKrakow is Kyoto Gdansk is idk, maybe Hiroshima
>>2886043Pretty sure all the cities in Poland and the Baltics were German. I was in Tallinn and some Germoid was seething that they stole Germans coats of arms, I was like no dumbass they were German . Funny that Americans know European history better than the locals
>>2852705whatever your plans are, don't ever visit Hel, it takes 564 hours to get there because it's so overcrowded
what are some cool french places to visit that aren't that tourist trap shithole
>>2887508Not gonna answer if you can't even be bothered to find a correct image, fuck you.
Come to Aubenas, Ardèche and smoke weed with me. We have nice rivers and goat cheese too.
>>2887869Okay I'm going. Prepare lube.
>>2887830Nice and Cannes are pretty great if you want to chill. Monacco is also a pretty sweet day trip. I grabbed a bottle of wine and some snacks from a grocery store and sat my ass down by the round about outside the Casino Montecarlo and watched the most ridiculous super cars coming in and out all afternoon. Then hiked up to the fortress and fondled some cannons. Would do again.
>>2887918>Nice and Cannes are pretty great if you want to chillyeah, there's a reason why the french riviera is consistently in the most desirable / visited places in Europe in the last 100ydidn't want to discredit itjust wouldn't go there during peak summer (June, July, August)way too busyand you'll pay double for your accommodation (or don't find anything decent in the first place)you can partly get around this by camping, which feels far less crowded, but there's still a peak season surcharge and it still will be comparatively fullif you don't care about the beach / going swimming, I'd go in March/April/Octoberotherwise go in early September or late August, usually still warm enough, but a lot less peoplepeak season typically ends mid August and crowds gradually slow after (French school begins like 1st September, Italian schools late August to early September and Germany ones usually somewhere in August)
Im near 40 and finally got my passport for the first time in the US. I'm thinking Japan and London as my first trip. Any international travel tips?
>>2887833cringe muttpost
>>2885422Oh no, anyway.
>>2885289Have you tried Canada? It has natural beauty but the roads are shit. Great way of exploring another country where only the currency is different. Could help getting used to other places.Would recommend Ireland as well.
>>2886075Nah, they're ruined by hordes of tourists from London. You'd be better going to rural Norfolk or Cambridgeshire to look at small towns than Cotswolds.>>2887506My opinion at least is that Japan doesn't have over-tourism, it's very similar to the UK in that the touristy places are over-crowded. It's like going to Cambridge in the peak of the summer and complaining about all the Asian students visiting. I also think some of it is just Japanese people being quite conservative or intolerant privately and this leaks out onto the internet with the whole "muh honibru" culture and Western fetishists treating Japan like it's some kind of special glass sculpture which needs careful handling.>>2887516That's the majority of tourists in every country. I grew up near Cambridge in the UK, it's full of Asian tourists taking the same selfies, buying Uni or Harry Potter merch (go to any touristy city in the UK you will see HP merch shops). What makes Japan so special that this behaviour is so frowned upon?>>2887833>absolute shitholes you will not feel safeSome of the safest countries on the planet btw. Actually global crime rates generally are so low you're extremely unlikely to get hurt in even "dangerous" countries. Watching fewer clickbaiting youtubers and experiencing more might give you a less paranoid view of the world.
>>2887833>England, France Belgium or Germany, absolute shitholes you will not feel safewhat the fuck are you yapping aboutthese are among the safest places in the world regarding violent crimesand they all have working, non-corrupt justice systems with competent policethe worst thing that's gonna happen there if you visitis getting pickpocketed in Paris, London or Brussels if you're too stupid to pay attention to your surroundingsrural France or Germany are incredible safelike "people let their young kids play outside after dark without a second thought" safethere are very few places on earth where this is the case
Does Seoul have any redeeming features? Have to go there for a thing, and have been there before, but just seems a completely boring, dirty, soulless hellscape of a city. Picrel, it’s one of the “must see” things to do in Seoul (Sewoon Sangga)
>>2887368Performative cleanliness is reddit brained
>>2884714>the war museumOf which war exactly? The one American intervention no one cares about? Or whichever invasion that hit the peninsula centuries ago when Korea was still a chinese province? Bum country.>It's freeOh nevermind then. That's a fair price, cheers
>>2887402What is performative cleanliness? Something is either clean or it isn’t.
>>2884477I am OP. I have now been in Seoul for a few days, and I must admit that the city is growing on me. It’s true that it’s smelly, dilapidated, visually unappealing, and Koreans are terrible drivers, but beyond all that Koreans do cozy vibes pretty well and things are quite affordable. In some ways I think korea mogs Japan: the people are friendlier and less autistic, everything is more spacious, and their public spaces are well-designed and full of benches and garbage cans, making it much more inviting for humans to chill. Japanese public spaces are like their zen gardens: nice to look at but not meant to be used, only appreciated. Koreans appear to be the most phone addicted people in the world. I count people on sidewalks and about 80% of people here walk around while hunched over looking at their phone. They also love their little diabetes inducing microplastic drinks, it’s rare to see someone not holding a plastic cup with a straw. A nice older couple gave me a pouch with a handwritten bible verse and some candies.
>>2887982>rare to see someone not holding a plastic cup with a strawit's slowly changingin some places you can bring your own cup and even get a discountnear universities (like in Daehangno) you'll see this more often>nice older couple gave me a pouch with a handwritten bible verse and some candiesthat's a cultliterally anything religious that is not Buddhism in Korea will be a cultand not of the good kind, some of them make Scientology look reasonable
I really want to experience more cultural sites rather than party sites so I'm planning on Paris and maybe Berlin next.

Just left Australia for the first time about 18 months ago.Considering perhaps Indonesia (Java, Borneo, etc.) for my next trip or maybe China. In a year or 2 I plan to do a decent trip around Europe in summer, but can only really do decent travel in northern hemisphere winter atm.
>>2887851Are you Indian by any chance?
>>2887851Nah, I'm an Anglo-Germanic white with blue eyes. Closest thing to Indian in me is that my great, great, great, great grandfather was born in a musician's family in Mulhouse (France), had a professional musical career in Britain and ended up organising operas in Mumbai for the Brits in the 1840s. His children all returned to Britain after he died before my g.g.g. grandfather shipped out for Australia shortly after that.
>>2888052>Closest thing to Indian in me is that my great, great, great, great grandfather was born in a musician's familyWow he sounds Brahmin. Maybe descendent of Krishna
Is Laos the DLC of Thailand?
>>2887621You are an ooga booga ape to the Chinese high rollers. Bet they won't refuse you if you show up in a proper car with a luxury hotel booking instead of all sweaty with a huge backpack saying "let me in to your kingdom of pleasures, mafiasan, and uhh, do you have a hotel for like ten dollars here?". Besides, what money are you going to play with? Chinese yuan? You don't even have any. No, they don't want your sweaty limp American dollars. Nor do they want Lao kip. Thai baht is the only acceptable currency a foreign visitor can play with.
>>2887624I never had a better time in my life there with a dollar bungalow and a fan on the river side with a hammock and a book. Wandering down to a tiny little bar/restaurant to drink beers and play cards with randoms. Wake up in the morning and rent a bike and peddle around the countryside amongst ruins of temples, the Khmer, and French colonial squalor. Maybe swim in a waterfall and play a game of pick up footy with some kids. Tuck in to some fresh laap while some lady kick a water buffalo around a field. Then peace and quiet. Back to my hammock and a book.

I still think about that girl I met at a hostel in GermanyThere was a Polish girl a couple bunks away who approached me. We talked for 1-2 hours a day after we did our own separate traveling for the day and returned to the hostel at night. She indirectly complemented how I looked, asked to exchange social media, and asked if I wanted to go to the train station with her before she left the next day. Said she never had a boyfriend before.I wanted her so badly, but I was already with a girl back home. Kept mentioning I have a girlfriend, she kept approaching to talk. In an effort to be loyal, I left early the next day so we couldn't go together, removed her on social media, and told my girlfriend about it. I don't know if I'd ever been so attracted to someone in my life. The extended eye contact made blood rush to my face. I wanted her so badly but wanted to stay loyal. Sometimes I wonder what could have happened.
