Hey voyagers,
/trv/ is a slow board, so don't expect immediate responses. CHECK THE CATALOG – you might find threads already discussing topics you're interested in.

Before asking for suggestions, tell /trv/ about your:
>Budget
>Interests
>Level of understanding of the local language(s)
This makes it easier to give quality advice. Of course, keep your posts travel related.

For all other matters:
General culture questions >>>/int/
Politics discussion >>>/pol/
Transportation discussion >>>/n/
Outdoors-related discussion >>>/out/

>DELETED. BANNED. OFF-TOPIC
I'm reading a cooming thread (I am not a coomer at all)
>flooded with anons angry at being forced to click on the thread, read it and comment on it. Whu? The thread that died for it nobody commented on for weeks. This board is almost dead
I post a thread with a Pepe
>FILE DELETED. Eh? This is 4chan, home of Pepe
On /biz/ it's so much more chill. Anons are funnier and less uptight there
>inb4 fuck off to /biz/ then
I can post a thread about travelling to find a wife there and it won't get deleted because the chill jannie appreciates it's of interest to anons who have money and want to leave the US. Way more off-topic there but its more chill
Why am I being forced to make travel threads on /biz/ rather than /trv/, the slowest board on 4chan? I just don't get it. Why is jannie so restrictive on the slowest board?

Except the "cheap" food in the US isn't actually food. It's poison.

Slept on the floor at Dubai Airport for 2 consecutive nights. Repeated the process on my way back

My plane arrived in Shangai at 1:30am once so instead of booking a hotel or taking a taxi to the city center, I just walked around in circles at Pudong airport until 6am when the metro opens again, occasionally going to the toilet to splash my face with cold water to keep myself awake

Accidentally left a 1 day gap between hostel stays and by the time I noticed, all the cheap ones were already sold out and the cheapest available was €97 in Osaka or €55 in Nara but i cba to go to Nara again so what I did was spend the whole evening trying to pick up a chick from a bar or izakaya who would let me stay overnight. I was successful in the end (pic related)

It's been about 6 months since I moved outside of the US and I have an amount of lasting happiness and a lack of anxiety that never would have been possible while living in the US. There really is an evil atomized vibe in the US that fills me with dread, and the women really are cartoonishly awful. There is a lifelessness I see in the eyes of American men trapped in their debt for their McMansion slaving away in their office for Mr. Shekelberg and their evil fat wives that I am so happy I was able to escape.

To any anons thinking about moving abroad, don't listen to faggots on here with their demoralization propaganda or their bitter shaming, do it. As long as it isn't an angloid shithole if you spend months outside of the US you will realize there really was nothing wrong with you it was unironically an evil environment. I don't care how you manage to do it whether it's working remote and not telling your employer about it like I did, or if it's taking a pay cut to quit your job and TEFL, DO IT. Escape that prison society.

poland sucks if you won't learn polish, and polish is a brutal language to learn. the guys don't bother to learn english at all. except girls dating you, everyone is irritated with you for making them speak english and they aren't shy about it. its fine for a time but living there it gets real old real fucking quick
the only plus of poland is the women. if you want a hot white gf, i guess go find one and then drag her to the nearest airport.. she won't fight you
if you could go anywhere else, budapest, vienna, whatever, you'd enjoy it a lot more. even gdansk or krakow if it has to be poland
america is where id prefer to live, but the women are simply too disgusting mentally and physically. i see others here sharing similar sentiments so clearly people starting to realize the main issue with the place

I had my fair share of shit from my exes but later on in life I learned the answer to a question I had as a kid. Why have my grandparents been happy for decades but my parents couldn't even make things last for one? I had to find someone who was compatible, wasn't going to be giving me shit all the time, had realistic expectations of me and most importantly I had to have realistic expectations of her. As a man you can't expect women to be perfect especially emotionally. They are different from men and you can't always understand their thought process. But like my grandfather would do I can just accept it for what it is and try to move on from the bad times.

It's a mixed bag. I actually find women tend to love men when we just act naturally.
And I say that as a person with very faggy tendencies in conjuction with my risk taking and handsome face. Women like us to be beautiful through our deeds and our autistic interests.

Every accessible, well known non-scary place is going to be mobbed with tourists as long as people have prosperity.
It's just the game.
BUT, every inaccessible, poorly known, scary place is going to be bereft of tourists, as is every place when there is no prosperity.

So I was thinking on visiting Taiwan later this year, I'm researching but to be honest apart from Taipei I'm struggling to find anything interesting.

It looks a bit soulless, which it shouldn't, but that's the feeling I'm getting.

For the record I've already been to some other SEA countries (Thailand, Cambodia and Myanmar) and to Japan. Those countries seem much more appealing to me.

Maybe I'm just and idiot, but I'd like to know your thoughts and experiences of the country.

I'm looking to do a daytrip to Beitoujiao trail , then Jufen and Shifen. Is this feasible in one day? what is the best combination of busses or trains to i take? want to leave from taipei early like 6am
>>
>>2632059
Objectively, it's a good destination because it's probably 85% as nice as Japan but twice as affordable. I can see how if you've spent time in Japan/Korea then many of Taiwan's charms would be dulled. The neomodern kitsch on display everywhere (in Tainan in particular) might fall flat. But it's worth appreciating the island for what it is, not in comparison to somewhere else. Personally, I'm an incurable Sinaboo, and found delights around every corner. I don't think you could call it 'soulless' by any reasonable standard.
What makes it stand out for me is the outdoor opportunities; I've never had my ass kicked so hard by a hike or felt so isolated in pristine nature; hard to believe anywhere in east Asia still has that feeling. Top-tier snorkeling, too.

>>2632131
Honestly you couldn't do better than a comfy neighborhood of Taipei. I also fell in love with a little town called Yuli on the eastern side. Idyllic location with a good cat cafe.

>>2632173
You can rent them in most cities. I think I read in the big western cities they want to see a motorbike endorsement on your IDP but other places no one cares. Driving a scooter up Taroku was probably in my top 3 travel experiences ever.
>>
Train to Ruifang room Taipei Main Station (45 mins)
Bus to Bitioujiao (~30 mins)

But you will likely wait a bit in between, so figure two hours transit each way, depending on where you live in Taipei...

Jiufen and Shifen are not worth your time if you have traveled Japan/China.
>>
>>2632059
Not to be a huge asshole, but the point of going somewhere is to go somewhere you don't know about. Why don't you pick a place in Taiwan you have no knowledge of, learn some of the local language and just go there?

Looking for tips.

I'm from Wyoming, US, and I want to go to Russia and see how their things are. I speak English, obviously, and I can speak/read Russian at a childish level.

I want to go to Russia and look around. See how they do it. Not planning on moving there, I've saved up enough money to go there and back, but I've never been on a trip like this so I'm looking for advice.

Where to? Moscow? St. Petersburg? Somewhere else?

I want to spend a few weeks, maybe a few months there. No specific goals. Things are already in motion, it's happening soon.

Anything in particular I should know? Never traveled internationally before. Never traveled internationally before. I went to Canada on accident one time, but that's it.

in my high school I had a student come from Siberia. Hair was blonde, tall and blue eyes. He essentially looked like Hitler's dream Aryan. He told me coming to my school in Canada was a shock to him as his school in Siberia was 100% white. Always struck me as weird as Siberia is technically in Asia.
>>
>>2632323
And White people technically come from Asia.
(I half joke, but there's a plausible theory that most of the features that define Whiteness derive from North and Northeastern Siberia.)
Also the Mongol/Caucasian line used to go much further southeast into China. The Ordos Loop, for example (north of Xi'an, west of Beijing) used to be Aryan (PIE, whatever). The furthest south I've heard of ancient Chinese Wytebois was a small amount of settlement in Yunnan.
The Chinese word for honey is also a partial cognate of the English word for "mead", or "miel" in French. (The 蜜 in 蜂蜜.) Back from the Wyteboi days of Tocharia. Same with 车 for chariot possibly deriving via ancient techmological transfer from the West (same "che" as wheel <- hwēol <- kʷékʷlos -> kokale -> che [车]).
East Asia has a Caucasian history.
