Honestly if you found yourself in the Sentri lane it's because you weren't paying attention and looking at the myriad of signs saying which lanes are which. It should be pretty obvious that the lane that's significantly shorter than the rest is like that for a reason.

>>2713844yes rice isn't really part of Taiwanese cuisine for some reason. I think it's because all of the rice used to be exported to Japan when it was a colony, so the locals learned to eat mostly fruits and veggies and meat. the colonial government used to force the rice farmers to sell 90% of their yield to Japan.>>2713876no scams aren't very common here. as long as you take basic precautions like putting your passport and cash in a safe and not taking any random pills you'll be fine.

Traveling used to seem like an adventure, full of promise and excitement. But now, at 25, it feels hollow—each trip another reminder of what’s missing. I’ve seen beautiful places, sure, but every city is another empty hotel room, every scenic view another moment spent alone. I watch people, couples, families, all sharing something I can't seem to find. Each return home feels lonelier than the last, with no one to share stories with, no one to miss me.The thrill of new experiences fades fast when you’ve got no one to come back to. And the worst part is, there’s nothing more miserable than realizing it’s not the places you visit that make you feel alive—it’s the people you share them with.
>>2713498Collections of imaginative stories spun around recalled images of a transcendental experience do not fit any definition of "scholarly literature". Tens of thousands of people come close to death every day, yet very few of them have transcendental visions. Blandly arrogant religionist assumptions that everyone's dying experience is identical, when in fact every individual journey is unique and depends greatly on how you've lived life in preparation for death.
>>2711770>Buy a house, find Jesus, get married, start having kids. This is the recipe for true fulfillment in life.Plenty of people do that and end up miserable and unfulfilled. Satisfaction with life is up to the individual.CopeSeetheYou're all spiritual plebs.
>>2710468That's just because gen alpha got online and is trolling everyone
>>2711770Buying a house and getting married is the worst things you can do as a man in the west because you can lose your wife and home as soon as she feels like she wants attention and to ride the cock carousel again. Finding jesus and having kids is good advice and what a lot of men are doing now anyways. My gf had 2 of my kids and is working and cooking/cleaning while I'm in between jobs and investing in crypto. No wife would ever accept such an arrangement but a gf would.
>>2713498You are wrong about this. I drowned when I was 6 years old, I stopped breathing and was revived by my swim coach who was also an EMT. I had no such visions of heaven. One second I was in the pool having involuntary convulsions from lack of oxygen, the next minute I was staring at the sky and my coach’s face. There was nothing on the other side but blackness.
Is it actually worth visiting this country or is it just being shilled on Instagram?
>>2701535good reply in good thread. it seem you need a large appetite for red tape (no pun intended kek) if you want to enjoy china these days. it's too bad because 20 years ago china had the reputation for being a kind of lawless place where you could get away with anything as long as you didn't make a big scene. serpentza talks about this. he has a good video of him showing up in Shenzhen with like $40 bucks and being homeless for a few weeks until he found a job.

I heard WeChat requires an invite and you cannot use many things without it in China. Do you know any places that may help with that?
I want to emigrate from Canada. Tired of the fucked up everything in this third world country. Shitty economy, shitty infrastructure, shitty people, shitty weather.What is a good country to move to long term? I'm thinking Oman, Thailand or Malaysia. I would consider China too but one has to practically marry a Chinese national and have an anchor baby to move there. I might do that anyways. Writing off all countries with a white majority population, I'm looking to leave the west to get away from white people and their leftist woke mental disease.
>>2711579>Europeans are still desperate to move to CanadaFUCK NO!Keep your Turdeau, your wokeness and your pajeets. No one i know would want to move to fucking Canada, it's a really shitty version of the US, with all the problems but none of the qualities.

I want to talk about best options for nightlife in Singapore. No, "le boring" and "le sterile" retards are not allowed, go shit up the other threads. I'm not interested in prostitution either. When I was a student I lived in Singapore for a while and I loved Stickies Bar (literal $1 beers) but I've heard they closed down completely? Are there good alternatives? Also, any good new rooftop bars? I've also heard that 1 Altitude permanently closed which is a shame as it was one of the less pretentious fancy bars.What are the current nightlife hot spots?
What's with all the demoralisation faggots in this thread?Seriously how ugly or brown do you have to be to not get laid in Singapore, it's so fucking easy.I'm a below average looking guy with a beer belly and do fine, get mires all the time too on the MRT.You whiny fuckwits are either nigs or autistic, be honest.
>>2711964kek
>>2713295Congrats on the mires bro. Maybe people don't get laid in Singapore because they have standards
>>2713295Those aren't mires, my dude. That would be thinly veiled disgust over your slovenly form. I've never been anywhere less tolerant of excessive body fat except for maybe Korea.
>>2711922What happens if you are brown and make 50k usd/mo?
is muir woods worth it or are there better redwoods near the bay area?
Muir Woods nAtIoNaL mOnUmEnT is mid. If your singular goal is to see Redwoods in the Bay, unironically your best bet is San Francisco Botanical Garden. If you goal is a hike, any of the areas east of Berkeley like Tilden are better and less crowded, but you just have to do some more research.
Once while at a bar in Paris, I overheard a Canadian, whose accent was identical to mine (and most Americans), feel the need to explain to the bartender in English that he “isn’t a stupid American” while ordering his drink. Why are Canadians like this?

Has anyone here ever successfully went to a country where a certain commodity is cheap and abundant in order to resell it in an other country at a premium.
>>2710963wow you are literally retarded, hope you end it soon :)
Of course its possible. But really you're probably better off just googling wholesale websites and factory direct purchases.This is literally the business model that every retailer uses, which is buy low and sell high. But selling is actually a full-time job.Lets say for example you did go to africa and bought some salable diamonds. You would still have a pain in the ass selling them, because local diamond stores are buying them at wholesale prices for 10-20% of retail cost - and you probably couldn't compete with that.
>>2710566They are a special kind of scam where you are simply overpaying because of your own greed. They aren't fake. This is why the government (in Thailand for example) does not shut them down. You just got greedy thinking you would make a profit, but in fact there is no profit to be made and you will most likely have a loss if you sell it back home. They are not necessarily bad quality gems either and if you bought it to keep you wouldn't have any reason to complain.
>>2710547I've heard about people bringing cheap car alternators (usually Lada ones since those were Russians, but Cubans can ghetto rig pretty much anything) into Cuba and flying back with the usual stuff like cigars, making both flights work in their favor.
>>2712030>>2713439I'd be tempted to pick up cheap gemstones overseas for personal appreciation (I just like them) but I'm getting mixed messages here if I would be getting decent gems or not.
I would rather be waterboarded than fly. Getting to the airport on time, getting through security, boarding, the take off, the landing, the NOISE, everyone around you coughing, the fact that you're in a little tube thousands of feet in the air, the waiting HOURS on the tarmac because the airport is understaffed or because another plane hasn't left yet, the delays, the handicapped people adding hours to your travel, the shitty seats even when you buy an upgrade, breathing in the shitty air. Call me a pussy but I don't think air travel is worth the hassle if you're going anywhere for less than 1 month. You have to assume that you'll be sick for at least 2 weeks.
>>2713980'Twas the same way until I really preferred the smaller, more chill environment of the lounge. I try to always fly later in the evening so the lounge tends to be pretty empty.
>>2713980There are plenty of cards that give you access to the generic Priority Pass lounges unless you're saying you prefer the airline lounges. PP can be pretty crowded now because of all the cards offering it.
>>2713981I know what the stats say, I just don't believe them.
>>2714018Oh I know, but I rarely use the lounges enough as it is already so changing from my current rewards card to some airlines card to me is mainly a moot thing. I rarely even use my CC for anything as the rates on my Chime card abroad make up for the fee's/exchange rates a CC will often incur.>>2713987If I am flying in the evening there is a 100% chance I am at some cheap bar or the like getting fucking hammered prior to. Lounge is great for booze sometimes, but nothing like a local place
>>2714027Its not just the airline cards. I'm talking about something like the Chase Sapphire Reserve.
What's the appeal of traveling?
>>2703754Whats the appeal of posting demoralisation threads on /trv/ with all the pedo anime pictures you have saved on your computer?
>>2709114they cant make it on the big boy boards so to have to come here to get their daily (You) quota.
>>2704719Scarcity and fomo
>>2703754IMO, touristy things (museums, tours, sight seeing), a change of scenery to mentally reset and find new inspiration, as well as just mentally unwinding by setting aside several days where you have absolutely nothing to do but relax and enjoy yourself.IMO, if you're lonely, then traveling isn't fun.>>2703761Are there places good for that, or do you just have game? I find women tourists in my town are easy to get with, but being a tourist yourself somewhere makes everyone ignore you.
>>2709730accurate
How do you handle seeing stray dogs when travelling?
>>2713448It happened around 8 AM. Dogs in India seemed to be absolutely savage monsters from sunset to about 10 AM the next day, then they all lay down to sleep or act cute for treats from the locals. A dog that wags its tail at you around noon will try to kill you just hours later.I went from being neutral on dogs to wanting them globally exterminated. The worst a stray cat will ever do is be a bit noisy at night. Dogs straight up kill motherfuckers.
>>2713465Pet dogs, will usually learn to follow the day rythm of their owners. However street dogs like their ancestors the wolf, prefer to be active around twilight or night. This is especially in warmer climates where street dogs will save as much energy as possible during the daytime and hunt in the cooler hours at night.
>>2712271>Xylitol doggie treatsMy neighbor has an insane giant dog that tries to kill everything that comes within 50 feet of his house and is barely contained by the fence. He's too old to look after it. How would I find some xylitol to take care of this?
>>2712226>>appreciate themFor being beautiful creatures in an ugly world.
>>2713802Amazon sells bags of xylitol. Don't do something obvious like mixing it with meat. Make some cookies with xylitol instead of sugar. If by some chance you get caught, you can play dumb and say you just made some cookies and didn't realize it was poisonous to dogs. You just wanted to give the dog a little treat.
