Why doesn't America have cheap hostels? Is this an untapped billion dollar market? Or is there some reason, like regulations or whatever the US doesn't have them?
>>2915409Anyone who would stay in a hostel for more than a week is sketchy
>>2915411I get doing a couple of weeks in a huge city if you want to see a lot of it but other than that I agree.
>>2915411Currently sitting in a rocking chair looking out over the town square from my hostel's terrace. I've stayed in many hotels and very few of them had the kind of lovely spaces that this $12/night hostel has. Plus there's almost nobody here, so it doesn't feel like being crammed nuts to butts in a tiny smelly room. My bed is comfier than most cheap hotels I've stayed in; the bathroom is bigger and better furnished too. So I will extend again, two days at a time.
>>2906558its some cucked retard bullshit to let women act like that
>>2906558We're rich enough not to need them, and if you foreigners can't afford a hotel room then we don't want you visiting anyway.
In your experience, which EU country has the most beautiful churches?
>>2919087Both. Russia is blowing up churches and hospitals and schools wherever they can.

Redpill me on Turkey. I wanna go there to look at Islamic arts / architecture, and maybe if I don't find a scammy place, buy myself a rug.Any food to try? Anything to know beforehand? Experiences to share?My idea is to spend 2/3 days in Istanbul, before going for 4 days to explore Anatolia.

Rye Tavern for Plymouth. Oldest bar in the USA.
>>2916247Also few know this but Salem Common is 100% 24/7 free parking on the surrounding streets. You just need to go park there on the off season.
>>2916036You have no proof that is true.
>>2916930The mayflower first landed on cape cod and stayed a while before they sailed into the bay and onto plymouth. Plymouth was a ghost village abandoned by the Wampanoag tribe because they got BTFO years earlier by plagues likelt fromeuropean traders. The story of thanksgiving is mostly true. .There was no original plymouth rock. Like 120 years after they landed some dying senile boomer pilgrim declared a big ass boulder to be the landing site and everyone sort of went with it. Thats the story thats been the tourist trap for like 300 years. now its a little bit larger than a shopping cart and sits in a pit by the water. The waterfront is worth a visit and there are some cools bars nearby but dont expect to be impressed with the rock itself.

What food do you buy when traveling on a budget?
Dude ,,,,,,,dude just go to the grocery store
>>2918308But then how can I get my South Asian spices in Sweden?
>>2918310Just go to an asia market?
>>2918305in europe i liked buying nice cured meats and cheese and eating them alone in parks. maybe some fresh bread as well. also Skyr. I miss Skyr.
>>2918305If you have to travel on a budget then you shouldn't be traveling. You should be working
What's up with the absolute dogshit gym etiquette in Europe and Asia compared to the USA? I thought it was a one off thing in Thailand and just a misunderstanding in Netherlands. People never seem to wipe down equipment post workout (at least in Europe), here in SEA no one wipes down shit and people constantly sit on their phones after like 5 reps maybe pulling off 3 sets over the course of 15 minutes. So far everywhere outside Singapore people just act like it's their home gym in their garage. Is there any good brand of gym you all use while living abroad? I heard Anytime Fitness is good but concerned about weights being planet fatass levels of DYEL. Also what's the best way to get supplements abroad? PH was a blessing in disguise where I was able to stock back up on things but worried about my next few countries(Japan, Korea, TW). I guess general fitness and health advice abroad, planning to stay in Asia for the foreseeable future.
Also forgot, what's up with people here in Asia will selfie sticks and camps setting up all the damn time for the most basic of basic workouts. Not trying to make fun of anyone just starting but these are usually guys you could tell work out doing 5KM/H walk on the treadmill with a camera stuck around them in awkward places to get around with. This has happened every country I've been to thus far.

Wrong board m8, you want >>>/lgbt/ for your twink drama.
Confirmation bias. It really depends on the gym. I recently changed my gyms, and in the previous one people didn't care too much, but this new one has signs everywhere saying please wipe etc.As for traveling, most nice hotels have at least some kind of gym and pool. I don't bother with local gyms, the ones in hotels are plenty enough for me.
Hey, I don’t use 4chan often, but I know there’s some dedicated people on here in various hobbies.First things first, budget and stuff.>Budget of less than 400 bucks, which is as cheap as I’ve gotten so far for accomodations.>I want to cuddle my girlfriend and leave a good impression on her parents.>Local language is English, duh.Basically, I want to visit my girlfriend in San Luis Obispo, CA from December 16-23rd. I’ve already booked plane tickets and reserved a hotel, but I know California is expensive as hell and I don’t know how to cut even more corners in the price than I already have. My girlfriend is 20, and I’m 18, and she still lives with her parents, who are still cautious as to if I am real and not “AI”. So I can’t stay at the parents house, and I want to be able to cuddle my girlfriend without anyone looking, so I can’t stay at a hostel (not that I would anyways, since I’m transfem and there would almost certainly be at least one person who’d hate to see me in a female dormitory).So I need to find out how I can penny pinch as much as humanly possible. Thank you all. (I am also posting this on /lgbt/ due to the circumstances surrounding this.)
>>2918753hit up the gf's father and tell him you suck dick for cash
There is no such thing as a "transfem", you are just a mentally ill retard. You will wind up homeless if you try to go on your gay little trip with that amount of money.Grow up.
>>2918753congrats on winning most stupid /trv/ post of 2026. it was a tough category.
What does /trv/ think about Sentos?
Been to one in one in tokyo and one in kyoto and the kyoto one was very relaxing but after getting over the idea that I'd be naked it went like this>first time in sento in tokyo after long day>traveling with buddy and we've had a long day walking>we say fuck it and go>we get there and go in, small local join near Ueno if I recall>good reviews on google etc>lowkey >psyche myself up "okay we're doing this">turn around and friend already is walking in>lmao okay what am I worried about>walk in thinking nobody is going to give a fuck about me>look up and everyone is looking at me cause i'm the only white guy and probably one of the few that come here>oh well>wash my ass and get in>chilling in a nice tubComment too long.

The Kyoto one isn't far from Kyoto station and is much bigger and more popular than the one I went to in Tokyo. I actually went back to it when I did a 2nd trip to Japan the next year. The first time I went was more eventful than the 2nd time so I'll tell you what happened.>Same as before, long day of walking>me and buddy say fuck it lets go to this one it looks good, its to the east of the station a few blocks before the river>tons of reviews, very clearly popular with tourists>get there, super comfy vibe>lots of merch, good sign nobody is going to give a fuck about tourists>go in, stash shit, wash ass >lots of japs, 1 other white guy besides me>very chill, standard lay out>one tub is brown water, i see there's a giant bag in it I think its a tea bag of sorts?>after a half hour talk to friend and ask how long he wants to stay>behind him the other white guy is looking at me, spreads his legs apart to show off his dick >I'm watching this out of the corner of my eye and tell my friend i'd like to leave sooner rather than later >go hide in the steam room with some random japanese guys for 10 minutes>jump into the cool pool and get really dizzy and we goComment too long.

>>2918446I had to give the customers their requested items e.g. towel, shaver and body wash, make sure they didn't break any rules (e.g. having tattoos or going into the wrong gender's side of the bathhouse), and clean up after them. If the water was too cold I also had to add wood to the furnace. I left after a few months because the owner was too creepy. Tbh some of the customers were as well, one guy used to come in and just stand in the changing room, while a very short man pretended to be a child so he could enter the women's side. Fortunately I caught him.
NO,NO,NO.SENTO is only japanese.GAIJIN isn't welcome.Tattoo is so scared,so evil,so disgusting.

Sup /trv/, here's a summary of my trip to Buenos Aires last month in pictures.I mostly hated the place, everything is ridiculously expensive and the value you get for what you pay is total shit.Public transport is America-tier and you will have to use it unless you prefer renting a car or Ubering all over the place.I went there for family reasons and was admittedly lazy when it came to checking out things to do and places to visit so obviously YMMV if you have a more defined itinerary.Anyways, I started my journey at the Jardin Botanico, here's the statue that greets you when you first enter the place, there is no entrance fee.
>>2915737We have a higher population of jews.
>>2915737We have a higher population of italians (corruption, inefficiency)
>>2915737we have a higher population of entitled lazy fucks who want everything given to them for free by the state, hence the pressing need of the state to tax everything to hell and back to generate revenue for itself to paid for said free bennies so that people will keep voting for them.

>look for a cheap place to stay while visa times reset >insanely cheap from checking out online, lots of places 24/7, train up and down the country, and english spoken>why the fuck does no one talk about this place? I think I saw some people on trv talk about it once>book in KLHoly shit I did not think it possible for something to be less soulless than fucking Seoul. The air sucks, the food portions suck, the weather sucks, the "local transportation" is ass, everyone smells like sewage or curry, you run through things and then it's just "mall mall mall hey did you want to check out that small attraction at the mall?" from anyone you meet. Bars are just awful filled with obvious chinese scammers or old fucks from UK, sometimes passing business people. Try to look online for interesting things, you can blow out KL in like 2.5 weeks of going out, and everyone just says "never run out of things,,," and don't get me started at 5AM singing.Is there any saving grace for this place?

My wife and I are going to Prague this weekend. Should we bother to exchange money or is the city cashless? Also, any tips for people visiting Czechia for the first time?
jeet fatigue
>>2914893This is by far the worst thread ive ever seen
>>2917380There are some /pol/cel troll threads that are far worse and still haven't been deleted.
>>2914893Most places are very accessible if you wanna go cashless, but certain tourist attractions require cash. When I went, I think I paid cash maybe twice.
>>2916030That's true. In Prague Timmy delivering food to me on bike. My wife and I were shocked since we assumed it would be another South Asian. Czech must be poor to have Czech bike delivering riders. Anyway I used a trick to get free food by saying the food never came. No tip either for Tim Tim.
hey guysis bali any good?
>>2918815I love SEA, my wife and I are wage cucks and have a 1 year old so we only get a 2 week trip once a year. Grandparents love watching the baby, so we leave him for now. We normally invite a few friends to come along, but we do the itinerary first. Most people hate planning anyway.Because of the short trips I do a ton of research and planning, and we do the 'luxury' version of most things. This includes a few $200-400 hotels that would be $2-5k in Hawaii. SEA still feels like a cheat code to me vs going to Hawaii, Caribbean, or Yucatan. It's a good blend of safety, scenery, service, activities, cost, and culture. I'd love to take some much longer trips eventually. The only thing I can see getting sick of is worry about food poisoning and access to clean, high protein food and salads. I love the more chaotic cities as well. My favorites so far have been Mumbai, Bangkok, and Hanoi. I want to do a South America trip, just haven't decided on a location yet. Will venture more to Europe as well, maybe once my kid is old enough. Then we'll probably go to a few SEA places with him when it's easier and he can do more.
>>2918900powerful good vibes from this postbless the grandparents for their good nature
>>2918815I've been twice for 6+ months each time and I don't see myself going back for a while, not to SE Asia at least. India I would go back to because it's not boring, but SEA gets old after a few months of hedonism. There's a reason why it's full of gap year kids on their first trip away from home, it's easy safe and cheap. You can get a lot of stimulation but not much adventure. For a short trip like >>2918900 it's great and he makes a good point that it's better than most typical American int'l getaway destinations. Just depends on what ya want
>>2918900>I love the more chaotic cities as well. My favorites so far have been MumbaiKrishna bless u handsome kind man i love u
>>2919032I like how you're making fun of India but I'd love for a long grey haired indian to say to that to me.

Anyone have any idea if/when it will be safe to visit Iran again as a westerner?
>>2913497Perhaps they are asking what enjoyment is there to be obtained. Why are you being such an obtuse nigger?
>>2916149I have a general rule that I will wait 5 years after a war concludes. I am desperate to get to Iran but I'm putting a line through it until at least 2030, unless there's a regime change before then (there won't be).Syria is getting back up on its feet and Iraq I hear is safe while being still a little raw
Is the average person really a supermodel over here or will I be disappointed?
>>2918676Everyone in Scandinavia speaks English. If you're not a native Scandinavian speaker, the natives will refuse to speak anything but English with you. And there are plenty of short and fat women here that will gladly jump into bed with tourists.

I'm confused - why is Finland excluded from this list? Are Finnish uglier? They're Nordic too right?>>2918740>>2918464>>2918463
>>2918914>They're Nordic too right?Culturally probably yes, linguistically no
>>2918463It varies but the women are hotter on average as most are not fat. Men are low in testosterone and have microplastics in their genitalia rending them meek and feckless. Feminine priorities dominate societal narratives while predatory congo carnivores rove the periphery of the shrinking blonde/blue school of fish.
