About 30% of adults are obese and 66% are overweight, so they're pretty close to Burgerland levels of fatness. Although I guess Burgerland has a decent lead in cases of morbid obesity

Shanghai was overrated.

Will Shanghai, as someone said, be seen as Asia’s best city and make Seoul look like a three-tiered city?

The buildings are grand, and the shopping street is crowded with people.
But if you just go a little into the alleys off Nanjing Road, you’ll see the look of the 1980s unfold.
And citizens lack consideration for others.
Honestly, the people there are not attractive, neither inside nor outside.

However, the roadside trees are really nice.
The sidewalks along the main road are dangerous and chaotic because of delivery motorcycles, but once you go into the small alleys, it’s really nice for a walk.
There are small bars and nice shops.

I want to visit Fukuoka and Valencia again, and I also want to try living there.

The standard for a Chinese first-tier city is how many high-rise buildings it has.

Shanghai is still tacky, except for those.

The citizens’ fashion and behavior are also tacky.

Even the most sophisticated and wealthy city in China is about that.

They claim that Shanghai is Asia’s best city, surpassing Tokyo and Seoul, but in reality it is still at a Third World level.

you can be in the wrong place at the wrong time anywhere. most people will never encounter a xinjiangren in china, much less two of them on a dark street. it was bad luck and i don't consider it indicitive of shanghai. i've almost been stabbed in many cities. almost got beaten up in busan so korea isn't any different.

>>2909738
i didn't consider that as OP was just commenting on shanghai and seoul.
really the worst thing about shanghai is the other expats. because you are around so many, there are always people around who you'd never choose to interact with if you were in your own country. social groups merge and you end up spending a lot of time around people who are dicks. not the case so much in other places where both the experience is a little more inconvenient and where there are less expats & foreign students. beijing was more socially segregated when i lived there.

Is Rouen worth visiting for both sights and the local cuisine?

Me and a group of ~5 are planning a visit to France next year (perhaps early 2027 for off season prices) and Paris is obviously a big one and where we'll be flying into from the US and visiting, but I was wondering if Normandy's capital was worth going out for views, history, and food.

Also, would Le Havre also be worth adding? Maybe more seafood focused, but I don't know if it has as many historical sights, though being on the coast might make it worth the contrast to larger/denser cities.

Our trip is planned to be Paris-focused at this stage, but I was wondering if Rouen's relative closeness would make it a worthwhile excursion.

Anyone with any sense fled Russia before it turned back into a gulag state.

I've had several coworkers over the years who moved to the U.S. from Russia. Most were kind and decent (two of the four of these were also Jewish), one was a rather obnoxious Jew who would have been considered a dick whether he was Russian or not.

If you go as a retard tourist, this might be true. Their food makes no sense, and you need someone to initiate you, but it is a great cuisine. Yes, they will bully you if you're a pussy and only speak English (you retard). But if you speak even just a few words of Russian, and make eye contact with people, bizarrely, Russians will actually bring you into their apartments and feed you. The border guard who grilled me for two hours last time I went (I went on a train from Kazakhstan into Novosibirsk) spent the second hour just chatting with me, we shared instagrams, etc. All this goes double in places like Kazakhstan or Uzbekistan, where they still speak Russian. On a related note,

I hiked and hitchhiked the Caucasus mountains for two weeks (way, way out in villages) and I slept more of those nights in someone's house than I did in my tent. Those may be the most beautiful people I've ever come across, although extremely poor. But they fed me things like wild ram soup, watermelon, something called Osetian pie.

>>2890777

Is South East Asia (specifically Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia) worth visiting during monsoon season (sept/oct)?

I have a month off
>>
>>2910614
Yeah. Hotels are cheaper. The monsoons are often overstated in how bad they are. You'll get some sporadic heavy rain, but if you just plan for that and head into a cafe or something until it's over, you're fine.

Just don't go to any small islands because rough waves can make riding boats impossible and flights are often canceled due to wind and random heavy storms. I went to a tiny island right at the tail end of the rainy season, and the two weeks prior to my arrival had people stranded on the island because no transport was operating in or out of the island. My flight in was also pretty terrifying due to the rough winds and it being a tiny 15 person plane.
>>
>>2910618
Are the small islands worth delaying the trip for? Trying to grasp what I should expect.
>>
>>2910621
Depends on how much you want to visit them. If you'd never even thought about visiting them until now, then just forget about the islands and go. If you'd been planning to visit them, then yeah, it'd be good to delay it or at least look up info on specific islands. Some islands completely cancel boat services during the rainy months. Some aren't affected too much.

Also, there's not one total monsoon season. Malaysia for example has monsoons at different times depending on whether you're on the east or west of the peninsula, then Borneo also has its own thing.

This anon is correct. African don’t like American Blacks. Most of the Africans I’ve met in the states just want to work hard, send their kids to school, and live a good life. They know what poverty is, and are trying to do better.

They view American Blacks as loud, obnoxious, and have wasted their opportunities in this country. They also don’t like drugs and other Black Culture bullshit, from my discussions.

My ex wife was Ugandan. African women love white men. They aren’t usually stuck up or unapproachable.


The Africans I’ve met are friendly, happy, love to have fun and have been willing to share and discuss their culture.

How bad of an idea would it be for an American to attempt to move to England? I'm finishing graduate school soon, and I don't want to look for a job in the US. I've visited England 6 times, but what is it like to actually live here?

My main motivation is the public transport. I absolutely fucking hate driving. It terrifies me. I don't understand why something so dangerous and so expensive is widely accepted as being a necessity for everyday life. It is ruining my life, because my country has no good public transport.

Many other European countries have good public transport, but I only speak English. Would I regret moving here? I love English people, and have several close friends who live there. I would only want to live somewhere that I can actually meet people, so no rural hamlets.

ok well the good news is that all the cities you mentioned (london, rome, paris) are all easily accessible from dublin on budget airlines- ryanair (justifiably the butt of all airline jokes) or aer lingus (a bit better but not much)
the bad news is that they are all expensive cities. but london or paris you can easily do on a day return (i used to know some people who basically commuted between dublin and london several times a week), but rome is a bit further. from any of the main airports you can easily get trains or buses to most other cities

>Not really into travelling per say but I'd like to play in tournaments, meet new friends, go to gaming/series conventions and honestly just honoring my grandfather's wishes of visiting London, Roma and Paris at least once.
i guess you mean like card game tournaments rather than jousting or something. every city has those kind of events. just google it
london has a massive comic con, about as big as san diego
france and italy actually have bigger ones but not in paris or rome. lucca (italy) is the biggest one in europe
>Not really restricted to weekends,
ok. weekends are always going to be more expensive than other days
