Spending three weeks in Scandinavia and Germany over the winter (around Jan). Specifically, Oslo, Stockholm, Copenhagen, and Berlin. What do you recommend I do, and how long at each place? Any suggestions?
>>28348264chan is for when you are to smart for ChatGPT but too dumb to Google
>>2834817Please list those cities in order of public transportation convenience.
>>2834817First mistake >BerlinStay safe brother and stay away from Neu Köln Check how many forigners of arabic and african decent life and dont go there ever
>>2834817Berlin: Boat trip from S Friedrichsstraße to see lots of sights at once, daytrip to Potsdam, Humboldtforum for some cool free culture. There are nice jazz bars. Go on the Fernsehturm and eat, it's a restaurant that turns, make sure it's during the day with good sight. Real techno club: Tresor. About blank or sysiphos are nice too. Go to U Kottbusser tor for the culture shock. The street going into Kreuzberg is filled with good oriental food. Don't buy drugs from the blacks
>>2834822I find it much more enjoyable to go to a location I know nothing about and just discover things to do while there. Locking yourself into specific activities or tours (god forbid) are awful ways to travel and kill any ounce of being spontaneous.
German here, I am considering moving to Poland. Reasons being:- I am a software engineering freelancer and getting new projects at previously common hourly rates has become impossible, while the costs of living and risks (of being declared a pseudo freelancer and having to pay up to 50k Euros in taxes for your past projects) only increased. Working from Poland for German companies is still feasible though. Especially considering the lower taxes.- My current apartment here is only losing value and if I bought one in Poland (I could get much bigger and newer for the same price), it would only increase by 5% every year, according to current projections. I don't need a loan, I could pay all in cash.What I am unsure about is, where to get best quality of life, which cities I should look more into. Supposedly the best is in Poznan, but that city has no water and middle Poland seems to suffer from high air pollution as they burn so much coal in their county. My favourite would be Danzig. It seems it even has two international private schools there, the ISG and BISG. Although I would have expected it to also have a German one (like Willy Brand school in Warsaw) since the city is originally German.What do you guys think, am I overlooking something, any advice? I am talking to recruiters about this topic right now and will probably spend next holiday there with my family soon.

>>2832185>Zero thanksThat's a fucking lie. EU funded projects are noted publicly all over the country. The electrified high-speed intercity trains. Countless bicycle and pedestrian paths. All of these EU funded projects are investments in public infrastructure. You sound like a Californian bitching about paying federal taxes to fund road resurfacing in Wyoming.

What is the best way to get cell phone service without getting jewed? The kikes with my carrier charge $15/day for an international pass which works out to $450/mo. Any cheaper options?
Is holafly good for a 30 day trip in Germany and Austria?
>>2835175Calling a WhatsAss number to check in (which requires data) was the most common requirement I encountered in Malaysia...in fact, I encountered it as soon as I entered the country and walked to my first lodgings. Some neighbor lady gave her phone to one of the kids who was following me, who then gave it to me. This was in Rantau Panjang, a town that very few foreigners choose to stop in on their way across the Thai - Malaysia border. Personally I liked it better than Sungai Kolok. People were so much friendlier. A local shop sold me a cell phone SIM and plan for 30 ringgit. Passport required for the registration.
>>2836347>WhatsAss numberAyyo bb wut u wearin
>>2831871I would caution if you use Google Fi for extended periods overseas. It requires usage in the US a certain amount of time before they honor roaming periods, and they will also deactivate the data portion of the plan after being international for more than 3 months. I pay $35 a month for Verizon (x4 lines) and get unlimited talk, text, as well as 15 gb of high speed international data before slowing. I have used it for over a year internationally with no issues from Verizon.Having a US number is nice, but I will caution you can only activate a new phone on US soil so you will have to return even if you have a physical sim.
Depends on how long you are spending and how much hassle you want to go through.eSim is the easiest by far but costs more. Had a guy on a tour bus with me saying he kept losing connection in random spots of Hanoi (Vietnam). I bought local at the airport (yes swindled a little) but it was still way cheaper than eSim and coverage / data has been great for $0.50c AUD a day.Personally I buy local and my phone supports 2 SIM cards, so my main Australian one is in the second slot for any 2FA codes. RCS and internet calling also works on it. Just no data without purchasing roaming.Others here have recommended Ubigi. No idea on if it's any good but looking at prices, you want at least 20gb for the month (I have used about 700mb a day), so about $50USD.

The budget hotels there have good reviews, much better than in Istanbul proper. Yeah it's modern and kinda soulless, but who cares. There's some little roads that go off into forested hills on the edge of town too (picrel). Would be cool to check out some Turkish nature.

What are the most "old money" locations in the world?
>>2835214White. >>2835275White.
>>2835275The NBA has enough money to travel. Well read people understand this. Old Money people would understand this. Uncultured and desperate greed maniacs like yourself say, "Where can I find Old Money locations like the locust copy cat Chinaman I am?"
>>2835214The Massachusetts coast.

>>2836805It'll depend on how far & how long they've traveled, but I seriously question the mother more than the anon.Many 45-year old moms have kids who aren't fully grown. It's not impossible for them to have adult offspring, but it's not common. I was in middle/high school when my mom was that age. Anyway, what I'm getting at is, what was this mom doing spending time with some homeless boytoy, when she should be taking care of her kids?
>>2836600Sometimes you got to put yourself out there.I put out an ad on craiglist rideshare and she responded telling me she was staying with her dad in Yuma Arizona and looking to travel down Baja. She paid her half of the gasoline BTW.Previously I had traveled from Florida to Arizona with two Rainbow hippies, going from one gathering to anotherThey slept on the ground next to an alligator-infested swamp the first night, then smoked weed and played guitar inside a tent pitched on the roadside grass of a Ranch Road in the scrubland hills near Sonora, Texas. I told them about the Border Patrol checkpoint in New Mexico, and we smoked the last of the weed at the top of the Franklin Mountains in El Paso.
>>2836246You are the one complaining about her on an italian food travel forum
>>2836805It wasn't a shitbox back then. 4x4 LOW came in necessary on more than one occasion during my travels through Mexico.
What country would be the best option for me?I have $2,000 USD in passive income from bonds for the next 25 years.I currently live in Belgium, where rent costs $1,700 USD a month.I’m tired of living in such an expensive city.My first option would be Chile, since I know basic Spanish.What are your thoughts on Chile in terms of accommodation, food, and safety?An honorable mention is Kazakhstan, although I can’t read Cyrillic.

>>2834001Surprisingly, Lawton has some cool nature areas nearby, though it's a bit of a stretch to call them the Wichita "Mountains". The Oklahoma climate is horrible though, which is why everyone is fat and stays indoors 95% of the time, never walking or bicycling anywhere. Blistering hot summers and cold, bleak winters. I expect the local wages for menial jobs to be among the lowest in America. 19.4% black population means that you can never relax in public.>>2834025Assmatic pussies should stay home huddled next to their air purifier.

Have you ever been to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to look and to watch and the statement of Robert E. Lee, who's no longer in favor, did you ever notice that? No longer in favor. "Never fight uphill, me boys!" Never fight uphill. They were fighting uphill. He said, "wow - that was a big mistake."
>>2836655Idk what the fuck you're saying, but I went to Gettysburg recently, and it exceeded my expectations. Really nice town, lots of cool antique shops, beautiful monuments.
I got in trouble for bringing my backpack into the visitors center. They search your shit like an airport. Fuck them. The little tower you can climb is fun, the rest is just farm fields and dead people's names.
My mom and dad are forcing me to come with them to Hawaii this December for my sisters wedding. What should I expect? All I know about it is that it's fill of homeless and the locals hate anyone not Japanese or native. I have about 1500 dollars and we are all staiyng in some airbnb place for a full month. Is that enough money? Is weed legal there? How do I avoid racism and homeless? Is the internet even good out there like could I play OSRS without shit lag? What do people do in hawaii other than bake themselves in the sun?Do I need a passport to visit? I've never left my state before since it has everything you could want and wouldn't mind getting out of this due to a "lost" passport. I don't really want to sit on a plane for 4 hours over the ocean.

Any language learners here? Ive learned conversational Central Thai and Khmer in 5 years traveling the region but always have to go back home every 6 months to make money. During that time my language skills tank despite having friends I talk to pretty much daily. I try to also only watch native content but admittedly their media sucks balls. Is this decline inevitable or does anyone have tips to mitigate this?My next language, Burmese, is going to be even harder and I'm thinking about just teaching English so I can stay in the country longer and master this language through exposure again. Unfortunately there is a war going on, though Yangon should be safe enough for at least a few more years. What's teaching English like? I'm ok with shit pay I just need enough to pay for rent and street food. Sorry for rambling, was up late last night and my brain is scrammbllllled. Time for work.
>>2818683Hearts are still there. Why lie?
>>2836336Are they still there for everyone? Duolingo does a lot of A/B testing with customer groups and has additional difference between platforms (e.g. website versus Android app versus iOS app implementations).
>>2818087I've been learning Spanish on Duolingo. I first started it over 10 years ago and stopped after learning the basics because the app was kinda shitty. Then I slowly picked up the language here and there over the years through work and travel. Now I'm no longer working and been living in Thailand so I devote an hour of so to learning on Duolingo daily and it's been pretty great over the past few months. I think I can finish the complete course before I leave Thailand next year.I want to learn Thai as well but I've haven't figured out a great routine for it yet. I know the writing system, classes, tones, and like 300 of the most common words pretty well. Classes are probably the best option but I don't want to commit too much time or money to that.
>>2836358If you learn spamish for ten years a d still cannot speak it, you are in no position to judge the quality of an appDo you people even listento the stupid shit you say? Youre probably mexican or something. No one that isnt mexican is capable of being so thoroughly bad at something
>>2836646I didn't learn consistently for 10 years. I had a few weeks of free time after graduation in 2015 so I used it to learn the bare basics of Spanish on Duolingo. From then onwards, I picked up bits and pieces from interacting with people that came to my place of work and Spanish-speaking locals during my travels. Duolingo is much better now than what it was a decade ago. I picked it back up a few months ago and kept my streak going since then.

I am planning to take train rides from one country to another, but when I check out the hotel I don't want to drag my luggage across the city. When I went to Japan, they offered lockers to put in my luggage so I could sightsee during the day then take it out by evening to train ride elsewhere. Does EU countries like Paris, Amsterdam, and Luxembourg offer similar services?
>>2836097No Mr dumb weeb, gorius Nihon is the only country in the entire world that discovered le lockel. That is some super advanced tech nobody but they could ever discover.God fucking damn, neck yourself.[-]

Thanks a lot everyone and sorry I don't mean to offend EU as if Japan is some utopian on Earth. I'm your standard Americunt who has minimum travel knowledge internationally.
