is this an accurate map?
Discuss everything related to Philippines travel here. No bait in OP edition.
>>2650221Alone, alone. You're going to die aloneeeeeeee. Forgotten, unloved, and uncared for.
>>2650220You can probably take away a couple of those like she doesn't necessarily need a degree. But yeah that's mostly everything. Following that not exactly but closely enough should ensure you don't fuck it all up.
>>2650225I was probably thinking more of genetic potential of their offspring, her good work ethic, and if she went to a good university, the family wouldn't be so downtrodden so as to see the guy the guy purely as a mealticket.Whilst the janny is away, anything else you would add? An anon made a point earlier how whilst not sex tourism, yes foreigners do head over to the Philippines to find partners / wives. There's nothing wrong with that. May as well help those anons lurking or contemplating it seriously.
>>2650220It's good, BUT "Courting will usually take up to a year, and will involve her friends and family" is bad advice. It's true only on the province, and each time they onteract with you they will jack up her price (by more and more of their selfish demands), and train you into providing to their every whim for life"If she puts out first date, forget it"Good rule generally, but ask yourself WHY she did it, and if this is something she regularly does....you'll know the signs (e.g. if she's wet but you can't get your pinky finger in there, she may actually be in love with you and hasn't had sex in a long time)>No more than 10 year age gapMaybe...lots of Westerners are in happy marriages with other Westerners with a 14yr age gap. It's a guideline, as are they all.Some things are better advice than others like:>University Degree educated at minimum>Working to support herself and familyComment too long.

>>2650229It should seem kind of obvious but you should make sure you actually like her and get along with her. You could have all this criteria for a person and follow it but forget something as important as that and still end up miserable. That's the first thing that drew me to my wife, we got along right from the start.
HOW THE FUCK DO THEY GET ANYTHING DONE IN THIS COUNTRY? I SWEAR EVERY OTHER WEEK I LOOK THEM UP AND THEY'RE THREATENING ANOTHER STRIKE STOP FUCKING WITH MY PLANS YOU STINKY SMELLY POOPY FROGS
as long as i can take a dump when i fly over france next month it's all good
THIS happenshttps://edition.cnn.com/2024/04/22/china/china-guangdong-floods-intl-hnk/index.htmlJesus fuck. I hope this shit can dry in a month or i'm fucked.Last time i was supposed to go to HK was mid 2019, no joke. God doesn't want me to go there.
>>2649556I used to skim thr 3 gorge threads forever hoping for it to finally pop and kill millions of chinks
>>2649551rainy season is from may to september
>>2649561>may is 1 week awayalright so it started just a bit early?
>>2649553The protests
>>2649566The overheated tropical humidity is surging north early this year and clashing with the cooler air. China saw some extreme thunderstorms at the end of March.
I know some people will say “anon it’s never too late!” but I don’t want to be seen as some old creepy fuck wanting to go dancing. So unless you’re older and have done those things with positive outcomes, how old is too old to travel and have fun with locals?
>>2647991>FULL HEAD OF FUCKING HAIR. Gonna shout it from the mountain tops as long as there’s an internet connection. The SOLE reason this old guy is being embraced and welcomed is his full, thick head of hair.but that guy doesn't have a full head of hair, he looks to be norwood 3. are you a straight up cue ball?
>>2648603No that’s clearly a mature hairline you dumbass it’s appropriate for his age. He has no recession, hairline is nearly square, and there’s no see-through
I'm a 31 year old norwood 2 boomer grindcel and I WILL be visiting Europe and Asia and flirting with all ages and BEING MYSELF and I challenge anyone to stop me
>>2648141I am a massive pussy about that so thank you >>2648654Godspeed
>>2648141so you are an oldcel and get along along with other oldcels... Congrats?
Can some anons share?
>>2648888>sir! Please do not redeem Indian woman sir! Go to Philippines sir. Sorry Rakeesh. I'm going to coom in your women and you cant stop me
>>2648481I mainly stayed in Kharagpur, which is a couple hours south of Kolkata, if I remember. Was in that direct area for most of the time which, outside of the city itself is surrounded by some houses and many, many medieval-esque stone huts. I found this pretty surprising/interesting. Rice fields galore. Occasionally we'd drive up to Kolkata with her parents(stopping or driving by many smaller towns in between which is where I am getting my sample size from, around 10-15 smaller towns/villages visited in this way). Then, I'd also travel to Sunderbans a few times which took an even longer drive to get to the coast, stopping less but seeing more. Once in a while we'd also stop, getting some sugar cane juice or coconuts on the side of the road to take a break from the chaotic roadways. You're right, though. I've never traveled beyond West Bengal/sunderbans. I was hoping for some kind of natural beauty to balance out the dire cultural side of the country (no offense if you're Indian..but there was more than once that I saw people just straight up punt feral dogs) but I guess that was just..everywhere other than where her family lived.
>>2648799He's kind of bullshitting. In New Delhi things are expensive but you could literally say that for any capital city. Can you get a nice hotel in Taipei for 40 dollars? Not really. Outside of Taipei you can. It's the same with India.
>>2649374>my mother is indian>im a foreignerClown world, rajesh.

I want to move to SEA to work as a teacher. I have an MA in English and a Bachelor of Education (licensed teacher but I just work as a sub right now)Which country is the best? (food, work, language, dating)
This place is amazing. I just started making my way south from Hanoi.Anyone with experience got any routes to recommend?
>>2647513Seething>>2647803Wholesome
>>2646823I know youYou're the jealous fatso who shitposts every time someone reports their travels on /trv/>>2647213There's no space for worrying, only reacting. With a little time you learn to read other riders' intentions, and that builds your confidence. Even as a pedestrian, it's important to be able to predict what motorbike riders are going to do, so you can cross streets safely.
>>2647333>we rode on a motorcycle all the way to Hue>a motorcycleThat's the phaggiest shit I've literally ever read on this board
>>2647172Should have asked him about it
>>2649525He didnt ride a motorbike he cuddled some man who was riding one, for five fucking days lol
>ItalyNot a sould speaks English>SpainQue?>Portugalsame Don't wanna visit the UK for the 5th time, I wanna see something new. Which countries are nice to visit (modern + not extremely cold) where people speak at least a bit English? I'm German btw
>>2649265hmm, I avoid Gypsies here in Germany at all costs so anything in eastern europe I automatically avoidbut I've heard some decent stuff about Prague
>>2649465What a retard. You think Latvia is full of gypsies?
>>2648744The Netherlands is terrific for being spoken to in English; the obvious downside being that you are going to The Netherlands. I can only think of about five plausible reasons why you'd want to come here and even for those five reasons you have better alternatives. 1) You're on a soccer groundhopping tour. If you visit my Norf FC I'll buy you the tickets for free. 2) You really like art museums but already went to Paris (dont stay in the West, visiting Kroller-Muller is OBLIGATORY). 3) You are an unironic weedbro and/or sexual degenerate but can't afford to fly to Thailand. 4) You are an American infrastructure student who fell for the Not Just Bikes meme. 5) You love the beauty of God's creation and just want to visit de Keukenhof, Pieterburen and Giethoorn, but are too poor to go to a tropical place.If you are a sightseeing tourist, just go to Rome or Paris and use the classic combination of arm gestures and Google Translate. If you like adventure/hikes/biking, just go to Scandinavia. The Netherlands is a soulless facsimile of a country unless you know exactly where to go.
>>2649489yes
>>2649496>the classic combination of arm gestures and Google TranslateI'm unironically terrified of this shitIn Venice and Padua nobody knew what the fuck we were saying. "Bus ticket to Padua" and this 50 year old retard didn't understand one wordI sometimes use google translate when refugees ask me questions here in Germany and it never works out the right way
>unemployed for 2 months and collecting neetbux>applying for jobs but radio silence for most part>start planning trip or a volunteer program>receive very good job offer out of the blue Fuck bros I dont know what to do. I was hoping to take advantage of my neetbux and travel for a bit but now this offer kind of throws my plans off. I was thinking maybe I could try to push the start date back but realistically I could push it only a month at best. Should I just say fuck it and reject the offer? I am 25 and I dont think I will receive a better offer than this in the current market esp with my skillsets
>>2647756I have a good nest egg stored in my retirement accounts and savings. I am ideally trying to delay my start date at least a month, not sure the best way to go about it. This would be my second actual job and would be very good experience, after a year I will say fuck it and travel for longer
>>2647848Take the job with the standard start date. You're risking losing this job as I'm sure a 25 year old doesn't have an irreplaceable skillset. Understand you're risking your nest egg in a spiraling economy. Quit next year and travel for longer.
>>2647733>You should be working on building a career in your 20s.fucking boomer thinks you can "build a career" these days. This is not 1992, pops.
>>2647874Somebody's gotta pay for his Social Security and Medicare, kek.>>2647725The entire careerist mentality is designed to trap you in the system as a productive asset.>good-paying job in a thriving economyno, I can't quit now, this paycheck is too good to throw away>bad-paying job in a depressed economyno, I can't quit now, I won't be able to find a job again when my travel fund runs dry
>>2647725just ask to start in 2-4 weeks. If they say no, travel during your 3 week annual vacation
One of my friends wants me to come with him to visit Saudi Arabia & Dubai this june. Are they worth visiting?
>>2649474What this guy says, I maintain that Iraq and Syria are the most interesting places in the Middle East, but if you don't want to go there then go to Oman, it's an amazing place
>>2649482>I maintain that Iraq and Syria are the most interesting places in the Middle EastCurious how Iran doesn't make that list?
>>2649487I'm curious why I didn't include it either, don't know how I missed Iran off of all places
>>2649505it must have... ran off your mindbadumpushhhhh
>>2649507You should consider a career in comedy
This June, the lads and I are planning a trip to the Lychee and Dog Meat Festival (玉林荔枝狗肉节) in Yulin, China. Has anyone been before? What kind of dog meat dishes can we expect to find there? Any info is appreciated.
>>2645394>4chan is blocked in chinaare you sure? I thought it was one of those weird sites they didn't block. they definitely have government shills posting here
>>2645366You'll notice that White people don't eat dog. Where are you from?
So, you first take a flight to Guangzhou, ChinaOnce you get off at that airportYou wanna ask around for the Guangxi provincial busAnd it costs 20 US dollarsAnd it's a four-and-a-half-hour rideAnd you get off at Maoming WestJust remember, Maoming WestNow, you might have to stay there a full nightDepending on the time you arriveBecause the next bus that goes to YulinOnly runs like once a dayAnd you have to buy another ticketIt's about another 22 bucksBut from there, it goes straight to YulinSoon enough, you'll be eating some dogComment too long.

What's a nice and quiet European city that I can visit for a few days just to relax? I have a bit of writing I want to get done and I'm looking for somewhere with nice weather and beautiful architecture. I was thinking of Bratislava since I've heard it's a bit of a hidden gem. Any ideas on where I can go? Preferably somewhere on the cheaper side.
San Feliu de Guixol, in northeastern Spain is a small speck of heaven.
Croatia and Prague seem incredible for sleepy small towns and villages.
>>2649319Gjirokaster in Albania is pretty nice, I was there for a bit in summer
>>2649460>PragueYank moment
>>2649488I meant Czechia
>six nights in Tokyo >six nights in Kyoto My first time ever visiting Japan. Is this a good itinerary? I don’t want to rush myself during my trip and enjoy both cities at a comfortable pace.
>>2636998No its not Kyoto is insuferably more crowded with chinks that anywhere else in Japan and most of the things worth seeing can be seen elsewhere. 6 days in Kyoto is far too long for someone with this kind of trip especially if they wont be coming back anytime soon
>>2647696>insuferably more crowded with chinks disagree, I ran into WAY more chinks at dotonbori alone than I ever did in Kyoto
>>2647697Yea Ill give you that dotonburi ruined osaka for me, I got sick with some mystery chink bioweappn after going there, its packed like a sardine can with asian mystery meat.But thats just part of osaka while most of kyoto is like that
>>2632673That looks comfy af
>>2631471>hes going all the way to japan>to only spend twelve daysreally?
I hate the tacky coalburner vibe of Dubai but the more remote resorts in places like UAE, Saudi and Qatar look incredible. Is the desert fun and worth seeing?
You left out Oman which doesn't have the tackiness you dislike and has all the sand you'll ever want.
>>2649458does Oman have oasis resorts? I like the oasis vibe
