My parents are boomers who are kicking me out of the house and offering like $400 a month for the first 4-6 months into my bank app. I guess they don’t understand $400 is nothing in 2026 it’s not 1991 anymore… Could I realistically collect my boomer dividend and live in SE Asia? I have a cc for a plane ticket but where and how
>>2902886Your whole life revolves around swimming in a sea of other men's jizz
>>2902890Every meaningless “trip” you go on is a surrogate activity to distract yourself from the emptiness and boredom of modern existence.
>>2902898True, but I don't choose to eat shit or swim in other men's cum because I'm not a circus freak
>>2902905Modern women are just as gross. The last girl you fucked, you were probably scooping micro scuzz particles out of her snatch on the outstroke
>>2902912You are a slave to diseased whores
>$1100 for the privilege of being able to change your flight or earning points these thieving cunts
>>2902851$700 to be near economic value seating is already a scam.
>>2902851>"Select an experience" where you can't even opt to pay $40 for an aisle seatNever seen anything so zogriffic in my travels
>>2902851People paying that much to earn back $5 in points deserve to be scammed.
Love Vegas, simple as. Post stories, tips, suggestions, etc centered around Las Vegas. Including but not limited to >where to stay >where to eat>where to avoid >gambling info >comps info >promos and specials >best pools >best museums>bars and nightclubs >free shit to do >concerts, sports, etc
if youre a gambler you can get free rooms and waived resort fees through casino player clubs. might take a couple visits of playing at the same casino to build up points and comps. its worth it if youre a frequent vegas traveler. i havent paid for a room in years
>>2902612>worth it if youre a frequent vegas travelerWhy the fuck would anyone go to Vegas frequently these days? Once a year is more than enough
>>2902612>if youre a gambler you can get free rooms and waived resort fees through casino player clubs.This is only if you're dumping loads, and I mean serious loads of cash these days to where sure you "losing 5k" pays for the 4 nights you are at the hotel. >inb4 nuh uh I get free rooms playing Black Jack :^) just a secret on how to do itAnon a hotel isn't throwing you free rooms if you're not a net positive to them in some regards, and I strongly doubt anyone here has a status in the gambling scene talking on /trv/ of all places.You might get a free hotel comp'd once a year at most if you are glued to their mobile apps and have some CC from their chain. Though that's questionable too.
>>2902664Isn't it worth losing a few $thousand to get a free $50 room and spend your weekend in a loud smoky building full of drunk losers?
Hi, I’m anon I hate Las Vegas and everyone who goes there. I shit up every Vegas thread with my shitty cynical opinions.
I've been around Southeast Asia a bit, seen Japan from the plane, but I've never actually touched down. I think it's time to go. I've heard the dollar is strong and the women are loose. I want to see Tokyo and get some good sushi, watch some robots rolling around and all that good stuff, but I also want to get some young Japanese punani. Any good websites or areas to shop for that kind of thing? If I have to donate to her grandmother's hospital fund or whatever, that's fine, in fact, it's probably preferable. Thanks fellow chuds. Love you (no homo).
>>2902892>>2902892You act like your only choice is diseased whore a or diseased whore b? How about neither
>>2902906Yes, a 16yo Japanese or Kazakh girl is a possibility. I've looked into it and basically you just have to present a good enough business proposition to their father, spend a couple weeks courting and proving you're in for the long haul, basically like it was in the old days in Europe and America. But I'm not quite ready for that yet, and I need to acquire more currency anyway. So until then it's it's just the usual diseased whores, which is 99% of American white women and 50% of Japanese women, and Japanese women are cheaper right now and have much better personalities. So I'll go to Japan. It's all about the ROI.
>>2902896>I'll take my chances in Japan and pay for play.Like that guy in the movie the deer hunter you act like you are required to play Russian roulette, you really are a slave to eating shit
>>2902908I have no idea what you mean. Flesh it out for me and wow me with your intellect, oh great boomer who created this current shitshow that we're all living in.
>>2902896Women are tired of foreigners and having to deal with someone who doesn't even speak their language while he takes them out to an overpriced low quality tourist trap restaurant is not anyone's idea of a good night out.
Don't believe the shit talkers. The California coast is a world-class travel destination. Fascinating human diversity, and people are nice if you are nice to them. Discuss your trip here.
>>2901628>City fags wiggling and grunting in the gym breathing each other's B.O. are disgusting. Real men get all the exercise they need from their daily life ordeals.Real men get buttraped in Topeka trails by beer belly boomers. It's ok as long as the boomer is white
never been skiing before, will Mountain High be good enough or should I drive further to Snow Valley?
Which nightclub in LA has the hottest sluts? I'm an hour and a half away and need to get laid.
>>2902884>*lets out a wet smelly shitfart*Ahhhh….

If you catch my drift.
>>2902849He now has gypsy aids because those are the only kind of "Romanian" women left working there now
>>2902850>sex tourism bad because uh... it's just icky to me
>>2902874>>2902874We get tired of hearing losers brag that they bought a diseased whore
>>2902876if a guy brags about buying whores that's pretty pathetic I agree
>>2902878>>2902878It's symptomatic of the degeneration of society. No one used to talk nonstop about being an incel, talk nonstop about buying whores, fat guys 20 pounds overweight didn't take their shirts off in public, foids didn't talk about sucking and fucking dozens of random guys. Everything is coarse and degraded
been to Rio a couple time never gone to São Pauloheard its pretty expensive, but not NYC expensive right? anyway I'm planing on a month long trip in November what are some interesting things to see/do while there?
Can anyone tell me what the FUCK is going on with countries demanding health insurance all of a sudden?Last time I traveled internationally was back in 2019 then this year out of the blue every time I go on Youtube I get an ad (I don't use Youtube as much as I did in the past so that's why I don't bother with an ad blocker) for health insurance to travel abroad.I've done some digging around and apparently countries are demanding it to prevent tourists from getting treatment for free(?)Like, how often do tourists get injured or sick to warrant this measure, the danger of national healthcare systems getting overwhelmed is realistically very low. What happened to doctors having to swear the Hippocratic Oath in order to get their license? Just eat the L and move on.
>>2900592Its to stop all the fucking pajeets etc coming over to medmaxx
>>2901088>Its to stop all the fucking pajeets etc coming over to medmaxxnah India has cheap as fuck healthcare. It has to be richfags coming over. jeets cant afford a round trip just for medical tourism

I visited New York 2 years ago and stayed in midtown, just south of Central Park. What I didn’t like about the area was the large amount of drug addicted homeless people and feral blacks loitering around. I’m planning on returning later this year and I got a good deal on a hotel in the financial district. Is there a noticeably lower concentration of such characters in that area? I’m guessing yes, but it would be good to hear from someone in the know.
>>2896932Damn. Imagine if you went north of central park. midtown is literally nothing in terms of homeless. If you call the midtown blacks feral maybe you're the schizo
>>2880297Greenwood is very nice, i have greatgreat-grandparents and older buried there lol
>>2899092Hey, i was just there today.>>2899934my family grave is also in greenwood, its most likely where ill end up one day too.
Going to checkout St Louis since I'm an architecture fan and have a soft spot for shitty cities that used to be good. I already got a lot of a big stuff on my list, but for anyone who lives there/been there, what do you like to do? My hotel is west in Richmond Heights. I was told to try Salt + Smoke but really any good bbq place will do.on the list:>Arch + riverboat>City Museum>Zoo>Botanical Gardens>Basilica>Union Station>St Louis Wheel>Old Courthouse>Vintage Vinyl (rec'd by a local)Maybe cross over to ESL to see the urban decay there. I love the old bridges that cross the Mississippi.
Pappys BBQ has some of the best ribs I ever had. Central West End is very walkable with lots of bars and restaurants. The basilica is in the neighborhood as well as the chess museum. City Museum is an interesting spot. Narrow Gauge is one of the smaller breweries that is really good, they can usually be found in supermarkets and Total wine if you can’t get the the brewery but try and grab some.
>>2897819It's an incredible, historied city that's been run by racist industrialists and corporate institutionalists since forever, being in red Missouri just make any hope dissipate faster that things would trend up any time soon. I would only go to Union Station/Ferris Wheel, Zoo, City Museum if you're going with family though. Euclid & Planet Score also good record stores. In addition to stl style BBQ try stl style pizza somewhere, get some Bosnian food in Bevo. Venice Cafe, CBGB, Heavy Anchor are good bars to hear some music. After the Botanical Garden, walk around Tower Grove park & neighborhood. Spectate car accidents on Gravois. And also, North city is not the rampant crime war zone people think it is- it's rather a blighted, empty, overgrown expanse that looks fascinatingly post-apocalyptic, plan a loop hike west from Crown Candy Kitchen
>>2898984>Very strange of someone to try and defend St. Louis. Guess we found ourselves a local.And just like that we have someone defending BALTIMORE for WHITE PEOPLE! Wowza
>>2902228baltimore has a few good restaurants, the pentagonal building is fun to go up to the top, and the parks by the water are nice, there's some interesting dams and little waterfalls and peninsulas to explore in the area, but the other parts of town are yes, horrendous
>>2897819To this day St. Louis is still the shittiest city I've ever been to with maybe the exception of some parts of New Mexico, and I've been all over the US. In my 6 hours walking around St. Louis I witness-two young white girls following around two ghetto niggers that were completely ignoring them right downtown-a white girl making out with a nigger holding a bong in the middle of a public square-a white man having an argument with his girlfriend outside a gas station saying she fucked 5 dudes at a party recently-a homeless ginger asking me for cash who then walked away and loudly screamed "FUCK!" when i told him noI then walked down to the river for a walk and got eaten alive by bugs. nuke st. louis from orbit.
How is the south of Spain for vagabond lifestyle?
>>2902748is italy better than spain? im torn between alicante and napoli
>>2902751>i like nighttime so i cant go to spainI have the opposite problem, I like daytime which doesn't match with the spanish lifestyle of doing coke all night and sleeping all day>>2902803>im torn between alicante and napolithose are both trashy cities
>>2902822>those are both trashy citiesi like the architecture there. how are the people?
>>2902831>how are the people?The people in Alicante seemed low class and resentful to outsiders, even though it was mostly other Spaniards there. Naples people were friendly, but there's a lot of foreign and some local criminals
>>2902748It's a big country so it depends where you are. Vagabundeando during the Summer is awful since it's extremely hot and very humid near the coast, there are lots of okupas but they tend to be junkies and not the sort of people you want to be around. There are lots of magrehbi's that will take great pleasure in stealing your belongings if you are not careful. The campo is not an option unless you have very good knowledge of the terrain and survival skills, also farmers are not unknown to set their dogs on trespassers and you might get mistaken for jabali at night. Cities like Granada, Cordoba and Sevilla are great but are heavily populated (see above Magrehbi issue.) Generally I wouldn't recommend it, people watch vagrant holiday videos and seem to think that it's a feasible way of travelling but they couldn't be more mistaken if they know nothing about the country and lack street smarts.
How do I do India? Ive travelled a lot around SEA and Africa but India just seems like a next level crap hole. However I'm interested in it because I want to see how bad it is and I got 3 baddies I'm talking with waiting for me. Two in New Delhi and one in Odisha. My plan is to stay there 2-3 months. I will land in New Delhi and take a train to Odisha. How do Indians treat white people? What vaccines should I take before I go?
>>2902742Youre either Indian or extremely ugly. Maybe hit the gym?
Anyone been to Goa? I have a wedding to go to there and I'm flying back via Mumbai. Debating if I should spend the last few days in Goa or Mumbai for nightlife?
>>2902827Goa is quiet and is a designated retreat zone for westerners to go to. it's hard for normal jeets to go there. Mumbai has more Indian people and is considered by jeets to be the best for nightlife. Bollywood is there and a lot of people trying to be famous in film music etc live there
>>2902827>>2902828>Goa is quiet and is a designated retreat zone for westerners to go toDo even the Russians still go there? I guess I saw a few foreigners but it was rare, nothing like SEA>it's hard for normal jeets to go thereMaybe in the past, but it's packed with the worst jeet scammers in the country now. It's a hassle to get around because of the taxi mafia and only the scammers want to rent scooters to foreigners there. It has a decent atmosphere if you just want to chill in an old previously abandoned Portuguese mansion right on the beach and do some low key shit within walking distance but I'd go to Mumbai for nightlife if you don't already know people there.
>>2902763Good, I'm glad the only people who approached me in India did so out of genuine friendship and not out of a desire to statusmaxx or squeeze money from me based on my perceived wealth or social standing.
Post your travel maps in this thread. Pic related is the official /trv/ Real Traveler's map™, edition 4.0.5. I am remaking this general after almost a year of it being dead, so this is not the usual OP.Fill in the countries and subdivisions you have visited, talk about your map and ask others about their maps. You can use the map however you like, the colors are more like suggestions, you don't have to use them, and you don't have to use all of them. You can add or remove colors and change the map as much as you want in any way you want. Don't like this map? Upload a completely different one. Up to you. Despite what some might say, there's no "wrong" way to use the map, and new posters and less travelled people are welcome and encouraged to stay and post :) This map is a group effort by our board, and we can only improve it if people reach out to share suggestions or corrections.This is the newest edition of the map, edition 4.0.5, updated for September 2025. Thanks to an Anon in previous threads, it is now easier than ever to fill in the map. You can use the website splored.com to easily color in entire countries with a single click. At the time of making this thread, it uses the old 4.0.4 template, so you still need to update it to 4.0.5 with the simplified template, but hopefully it will be updated.
>>2902600>What places did you enjoy the most out of those you've visited? I love Switzerland, Japan, and Scandinavia most. No particular order.>How did you find the contrast between living in PNW and South-east? The NW is way better with regard to nature and environment, whereas the southeast is good but sticky for much of the year. The people are kinda cold and standoffish in the northwest, whereas southerners are more welcoming but tend to be two-faced as well. I have family in both spots so I'm used to the dichotomy.>What locations did you visit in BC, Yukon, Alaska and did you enjoy any? In BC, just Hope, Vancouver, Whistler, and Victoria. In Alaska and Yukon, Skagway, Juneau, Ketchikan, and Whitehorse (cruise). I really like going to lower BC, it's a great daytrip from where I live (albeit now flooded with jeets), whereas the rest are pretty far out in the woods and somewhat samey.>How do you find PNW? I was born and raised. Seattle proper is kind of a shitshow, but the surrounding areas are nice (albeit stupidly expensive). Issaquah is a good gateway to the mountains with lots of biking and hiking options nearby, though I'd recommend going north of the metro area.>Was French Guiana difficult to traverse? If you're not on the coast, you're in the Amazon jungle. It's a really small place with only a hundred thousand people, so basic amenities are somewhat less common. You get to see the legionnaires training near the space facility, which is cool I guess. I was so glad to get the fuck out of there, but also glad I get to say I've been (which seems extraordinarily rare).Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>2902629>>2902600>Also is there a reason that you didn't go to Kaliningrad Oblast?For a long time you had to get a proper Russian visa to visit Kaliningrad, which didn't seem worth to me at the time. The visa was fairly expensive, a bit of a hassle to get and the exclave is fairly small. Nowadays there's an e-visa system which apparently has streamlined the process a lot, and it's more affordable too.>I'm aware there's some kind of border where you can temporarily cross though I haven't heard of anyone doing it. There's no such thing. If there was I would know about it. If anything, due to ongoing war there's a lot more restrictions now. Railway traffic between Poland and Kaliningrad has been suspended, only two border crossings with Poland remain operational and crossing the border on foot is no longer allowed. >Was tempted honestly, whilst being overly preoccupied with exploring Hanseatic settlements of recent.There's barely anything left of the city's Hanseatic heritage. Try neighboring Gdansk for your Hanseatic itch.As far as Bosnia is concerned: I agree with the other Anon, it's a great country to visit, easily one of my favorites in Europe. The railway network is very thin but there's a decent inter-city bus network. If you can, make sure to check out Kulen Vakuf (pic related) and the Una national park. It's a stunning place.Also the Ciro trail is nice if you want to dip your toes into bike touring. It follows an old railway line originally built by the Austrians. Part of it straddles the border of Republika Srpska and Bosnia and Herzegovina, which was heavily impacted by the Bosnian War. Almost entirely depopulated now. It's pretty cool if you're at least marginally interested in the history of the country.Pocitelj is neat if you're in the area anyway but I'm not sure it's worth dedicating an entire day to it.
>>2902600>I'm aware there's some kind of border where you can temporarily crossMaybe you're thinkin of the Saatse Boot? That's in Estonia, a road between two Estonian villages that goes through Russia for like a kilometer. You used to be able to drive there (without stopping though) and some people did that and said they had "visited Russia". It's closed now because of the war.
>>2902726>some people did that and said they had "visited Russia". It's closed now because of the war.The whole reason I learned about it is that some retard did it and painted Pskov Oblast green on a trv map thread
>>2902854>some retard did it and painted Pskov Oblast green on a trv map threadHey, that was me! I cycled across the Saatse boot back in 2016 to claim Pskov Oblast for my map. Unfortunately the boot is off-limits these days: https://www.defensenews.com/global/europe/2025/12/10/in-estonia-europes-last-road-through-russia-has-closed-for-good/I have since been to Russia and Pskov Oblast on a proper visa for what it's worth:>>2900190
I've lived in bumfuck South Carolina my entire life, in a town of less than 800 people. Since middle school I've been hated and spat upon because of the way I look. I'm 32 years old now. Everyone here hates me. I want to travel to a big city like Chicago just to experience what it's like. But I'm afraid people will mock me there because I'm ugly the same way they do here. Do you have any experiences of this?
Everywhere in the world im disrespected and laughed at bc im a midget. Rural/urban makes no difference. My only hope is to move to a southeast Asian country where im only slightly below average.
>>2902273Midgets are based. People are going to laugh no matter where you go, but that's because they think you're interesting. Develop an interesting personality to go with it, don't be offended, and you'll be the center of attention (in a good way) no matter where you go. And women like guys who get attention.
>>2902273>Everywhere in the world im disrespected and laughed at bc im a midget.We are not laughing at you, midget, we are laughing with you, because you are joly and petite.
>>2900613Fitness is way higher in cities mate, built up inner areas are chock full of cashed up yuppies with no kids who go to the gym 4 times a week.The online spaces you hang out in may make you think rightoid incels are the only people who lift but gymming is the most Normie hobby there is
>>2900570 Bro who fucking cares let me live my life culture that shit sucks money i honestly do not need that much and power come on what am i a psychopathic control freak.
