Would you take the /int/ trail?
>>219824297Firsties used to be able to spend half a year doing this shit and still have job options waiting for them back home.
>>219824328Based
>>219824328it was even easier than that for boomers like my parents>mom worked at restaurant in park>dad worked on highways>work season ends, they got laid off>because they weren't fired they got unemployment insurance>government sent them checks to go on vacationthe trick was you hard to work a job that wouldn't end before you would qualify
>>219824297That's just the silk road
>>219824297kinda interesting how india was for boomers what japan is millenials then westerners actually had to interact with indians and it all went downhill
People could just travel through Yugoslavia?I don't get it, how did they suffer down there?Or could Yugoslavians not leave?
>>219824872It goes in cycles
>>219824872Japan was for boomers what Japan is for millennials THOUGH>>219825038Yugoslavs just laughed at the westerners while working in their comfy Euro-socialist worker councils
>>219825038Yugoslavia wasn't under Soviet Occupation. They weren't behind the iron curtain. They were poor because of their own Slavic subhumanism.
>>219825038>>219825161it was standard practice during the cold war that eastern countries would buy needed equipment from the west, but only if there was a reciprocal flow of tradea lot of hollywood movies were filmed in yugoslavia because of thishttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:English-language_Yugoslav_films
>>219824775Hippies were boomers.
>>219824297great trunk road...
>>219824297One of these guys introduced the Beatles to my dad, which explains his and mine fantastic taste in music
>>219825349It's standard practice among Westerners to support Slavs. Then when the ruin themselves the Slavs will blame the West. Still then the Westoid will worship the Slav.
>>219824297I wouldn't make it to Istanbul. Grim that any nigga would wanna go to Athens
>>219825141>>219824872Nah, the only Boomer who was interested in Japan at the time was David Bowie. All the others were for India. He really did see the future...
>>219825587What about the Beatles marrying Yoko Ono?
>>219824328Also all those countries were not at war and were relatively stable to cross through.
>>219826334Yeah but wouldn’t it be like walking into the village in residential evil 4?
>>219824297Back when India was clean and not rapey. Zoomers are the worst indisns
>>219826725>Back when India was clean and not rapeySo never? Lmao!!!

>>219824328I'm a firstie and can still do it now.>work 18 months>save 35k€>quit job and appartment >travel 18 months>go back home and find a decent job in a few weeks>repeat I'm on my 5th loop now, quit my job 2 months ago and more than one year left to go wherever I want. Found a gf to share the lifestyle a few years ago so we spend even less money.I'd say in 5-6 countries in the world anyone can do this with some frugality. In others you need to have a decent job or really try hard.Good thing is that new countries are getting cheap, like last trip we spent one year in Japan and stayed in the budget.
>>219824872I feel like Western sensibilities have also changed. Twenty years ago people found dirty cities sovl in a punk sort of way. Now that stuff isn't cool or edgy anymore, it's just disgusting. Funnily enough, I also recall seeing a lot of internet comments in 2002 and after about the soullessness of the Korea/Japan FIFA World Cup. Everyone would absolutely fucking love that shit now.
I COME FROMALANNAUNNA!!!
>>219824297No, I don't want to end up like those 'tarded couples who were killed in the mountanous hinterlands of central asia by Islamist Chimpanzees.
>>219827556If you can survive Africa, I'm pretty sure you'll be okay anywhere else.>in b4 Botswana richest country in Africa etc. etc.
>>219824297More like the gypsy trail in reverse
>>219824297How the hell is it hippie to travel through the most chuddiest conservative and elderly villager mindset countries on earth crossing the Bosphorus strait
>>219824297There's a war in Iran right now my dude
>>219829178this was before the islamic revolution in iran lead to a worldwide islamist revival
