The food in Prague is good. Those Oh Deer bakeries have the best Kronuts I've ever eaten. Klášterní šenk is the best restaurant in the city. U Kunštátů has the best beer. Pizzeria Corto had good New York style pizza. Mincovna had the best soup Ive ever eaten.

Trdelink is a tourist trap. Go to any market to buy some kolac instead. Also, their Coke (Kofola) sucks.
In general, Czech food is a German copycat, even serving eisbein as if it were theirs. You can eat a lot of Southeast Asian food there though - in Olomouc I even ate in a Nepalese restaurant

Me and the misses are travelling to bali and nusa penida in a couple weeks, any of you faggits going to be there?

What is the New Orleans of your country?

I need a backup plan for incase America really shits the bed.
Must:
Good weather
Be a proper city
Be in a stable liberal country
Be cool and fun like New Orleans
Preferably speaks English or French.

I'm serious. I need another city like New Orleans.

I'm willing to accept points off for my own poor articulation of the point, but the point itself is obviously valid if you can try to get what Im saying. If you told someone to envision big city life, they obviously would imagine somewhere like Manhattan, not Atlanta.

>>2881075
Enlighten me

>>2881076
The quote is by an American play writer named Tennessee Williams. The quote goes "America has three cities, New York San Francisco, and New Orleans. Everything else is Cleveland"

What he's talking about isn't what can be measured, it's about cities feeling special. NYC, NOLA and SanFran feel special. Atlanta, Minneapolis, Cleveland really don't, at least not like those three do.
>>
>>2881077
Oh sure never heard the quote but no argument there
>>
>>2879447
>It's also packed with blacks, which those people don't actually like living around no matter how much they say they do
speaking as someone who's only visited New Orleans as a tourist I was quite impressed by how non-obnoxious the blacks were compared to other parts of the country
That said, I was amused that my progressive friends I was visiting down there had seemingly no black friends and that all the cool Mardi Gras events were like 95% white people
>>
>>2883530
The older blacks are easygoing and polite to clueless wandering tourists, the wealthy tourist blacks on vacation only want to have fun, but the young hoodlums (15-25 year old males) murder and rob each other at apocalyptic rates.
>>2880298
A good description of the city right here. It's always shocking how rundown the place is, and how everybody acts like it's perfectly fine for things to be that way.
>>2880218
>scares away the normies
What are you talking about? NOLA is chock full of loud shouting faggot normies on vacation. Of course they wouldn't ever want to live there, but Bourbon Street is a literal zoo of extroverted normalfags leaving their uptight careercuck lives behind and letting loose.

BTW Bourbon Street is no blacker than any other tourist hotspot in America. And the blackest neighborhoods in NOLA are no-go zones where you'll find all the gangbanger shit, which any respectable white person stays a mile away from. Anyone who pretends like they feel comfortable hanging out with hoodlums outside the ghetto corner store "because I'm not a racist pussy like you guys" is either a druggie wigger or a LARPer. Truth is, you avoid driving down those streets, never talk about that part of town with anyone, and pretend like it doesn't exist.

Hi, anyone that has used GoToGate can share their experience?

Yesterday I booked a flight with them from Europe to Canada for 23 may with Condor airlines and the problem is that both their websites fucking sucks.

GoToGate gave me the ref code (Which on the condor website is the check in number) to use on the Condor website and it seem it works since on the Condor website i got my booking number. I also submitted my API on the Condor website.

I can't see my ticket (Maybe not enough time has passed since I did it only yesterday?) but from what I understand I only need my booking number to get on the plane (And the check in number to check in ofc).

Is everything alright? Sorry for the dumb question but it's my first time traveling in general.

I booked with gotogage last trip and Singapore airlines changes my flight home. Singapore airlines absolutely will not help you change it and you can't use their website. Gotogatr is all Indians where you're on hold for hours and they can barely speak english and hang up on you constantly they refuse to help
I spent a whole month on the phone ruined my holiday trying to get gotogate to just fix the issue put me on next flight they would just hang up on me in the end and refuse to do it
Then they marked my flight from Singapore home as no show despite the fact they wouldn't book my new flight from Philippines to Singapore. Ended up getting a new flight home fully paid by me and then travel insurance said the problem is with gotogate they refused to pay out.
Never book anything with third parties ever again in my life
>>
>>2879045
because it's usually cheaper
>>
Hi, OP here again, since the thread is still alive and i'm boarding the plane tomorrow I will add more details to help other anons who search in the archive regarding gotogate, now and after the flight.

I made the check in just fine and got the boarding pass. GoToGate took 15$ to make the check in automatically but it didn't do it but whatever, maybe it didn't becuase i made the check in like 20 hours before the flight.

I paid with paypal and on the data reseller it says "OY SRG Finland" and on the credit card transaction it says "AIRFAREET", when I looked them up I found only bad reviews only but since I got my boarding pass I guess i got lucky (At least for the first flight, will have to see if I get lucky with the return flight too).
Also after reading this: >>2882465 I think I got lucky even more.
From what I understand booking with third parties is cheaper but if something happens you won't get any help from them or the air line.

I feel like the "Kingdom of Wonder" doesn't get talked about much here, why? Cheap visas, quieter than its neighbors, most lax country for TEFLfags, people seem friendly enough. I know there's sexpats and third-world bullshit of course, but that's almost everywhere in SEA. What's the catch?

What's the creepiest place you've ever been to?

in a bar in Tokyo that promised a bunch of drinks and attention with some girls for a flat rate. Pay the rate up front at the door and head on in arm and arm with some slags. Having a good time with the slags, some of my buddies, and we are getting pretty drunk and having a good time. Then told there was to be an additional bill. My friend loses it and threatens to burn the place down. He is getting in the face of some dudes with fingers missing and gold teeth at a table by the door. I grab him as he starts swinging at these dudes who are just smiling at us as I get him out while a couple of my other buddies are also trying to get out. Think they might be beat up or worse, but get the guy who started shit out of there to hopefully defuse the situation. Find one of my buddies outside who hauled ass around a corner. Five minutes later the guy we lost comes slowly walking around another corner grinning and give us all our money back and some and said the yakuza motherfuckers thanked us for dealing with our friend and wished we had a good night out in Tokyo.

Creepy places can be fun. If they don't need the space they should just leave it there, why does it matter if undesirables are living there? They enjoy creating a mega squalid living space. It may in have a positive affect on the city.

I mentioned this in the California thread but Trona and lots of the high desert and Mojave have a weird feel, it could be all the government testing and illegal weed farms there though. A place I thought would feel creepy that wasn’t was the 9/11 memorial. Something about seeing people selling pretzels and kids doing handstands makes seeing the bottomless chasm thing feel less impressive.

Any place in the Ozarks is better than Branson. Maybe you’ll find a cheap motel there or a place to eat but unless you’re looking for a downscale hillbilly Vegas, avoid it. I like the Arkansas side of the Ozarks and there's endless waterfalls, caves, hiking trails, floatable rivers and interesting small towns and backroads. Eureka Springs is an alternative to Branson if you’re looking for more people in one place. If you like nature and rural Americana you’ll enjoy the Ozarks.
>>
>>2883421
Yeah I tend to agree with this assessment. Northern Arkansas has some decent rafting around Hardy too.
If you want Hillbilly Vegas, then Hot Springs is cool too. IMO it's better to go when the Horse races are going on in the Winter and Early Spring though.
It can get really crowded if the weather is nice.

Looking for opinions on Argentina.
I am looking at options for living long term part time (5.5 months) away from Canada. With the possibility of making a permanent move in the future.

Background: Retired CAF with a substantial retirement combined with injury pension. Would just be me and my teenage son travelling.
Funding wise, I clear approx $6000 USD/month after taxes.

What's the internet access like in the rural areas?
I plan on renting a car for mobility as I hate public transport.
What's the best places for rural living where I can enjoy the Gaucho culture?
Are there any places I might be priced out of living?
Thanks

Argentina has become drastically pricier as a tourist destination under the new president, who is Jewing everything to the max. The old hack of using black-market exchange rates to get everything for dirt cheap is history. You missed the gravy train. So did I. It sucks, but what can you do.
>>
>>2883431
I didn't really care about the price since I'm a rich Amerifat, I was more concerned that the locals can't even afford to eat. I've read that the average wage there is something like $600/month (but that's only for official jobs, and a lot of people only have "informal work"), yet groceries and even fast food were 20% higher prices than in the U.S.

It's also an argument for packing light. If you pack light enough, you can fit your luggage into a garbage bag once you arrive at the location. The bugs will not climb through the bag to infest your luggage. If you just have luggage sitting around though, you are tempting fate. Never put clothes into drawers and the such that are provided for you. Good luck, friends, and God be with you.

About to book my second airbnb coming up here for SEA, what's the big deal?

What did the post say about SEA? Airbnb +28 days gives discounts all over, if anything it's needed in places like Finland or Norway(not sure why you'd do over a month there though).

Besides a lot of us here I would bet are doing either long-term digital nomad or simply have enough to not needing to work a steady job, SEA is GOAT for that. It's not like I can't just fly to Europe, it's just like why would I want to during say winter?

There's several reasons foreigners stay in shitty parts of Third World cities.
1) It's their first time in the country, and they barely made it 5 km from the airport before they felt an overwhelming urge to stop and familiarize themselves with their alien surroundings.
2) They are on a long journey and breaking it up with a night or two near the bus or train station, which is convenient but bound to be shitty.
3) There are many tourist hotspots or beautiful places in the vicinity of a shithole with cheap and easy food, lodging and transport.
4) They love the heckin hustle and bustle of the streets and can't stand the sleepy rural villages.
5) They start bedrotting in the first cheap hotel they find and give up on further travel because it's too much effort.

You're clueless. India does have a gender imbalance, but most of those surplus males gravitate to industrial slums to slave away at various jobs. Rural India is full of women. In fact, there are often more women than men selling items at the bazaar, riding the bus, staffing the shops, etc.

Being well travelled is very cool and something to be proud of though. You don't need to brag or gloat but there are still a lot of people that don't get the privilege of world travel especially in more obscure locations. I think you can brag a little bit since so many people respect travel and it shows some ambition in life. You should be thankful you've had the ability to travel and not hate on people that simply really enjoy it. But the people OP is talking about are obviously retarded.
