>>2835498Thailand is great for foreigners who speak little and listen much. Memorize Thai numbers before you go, if you plan to do much buying from small vendors. I like to have a 50 baht bill on hand to give to a favored vendor. They are sadly rare in some parts of the country.
>>2835289Yeah they do it all the time. Just not with you.

>>2828577>most popular tourist destination in the worldI mean it’s clearly not though? It’s not in the top 10 of countries most visited by international tourists. Spain, France, Italy, USA are ones that should just obviously be above it to anyone with a brain (and by numbers they in fact are)But even fucking Turkiye beats it. Factoring by how much money countries get from tourism vs overall visitors, even boring ass fucking Canada beats it.
>>2838207Tropics are our natural home as humansTherefore thailand beats all of them, or it should. But its good that it doesnt and all these retarded slaves visit their slave cities of concerete like paris.https://www.youtube.com/shorts/GluDIopPEDk

I'm thinking of getting one and driving from western Europe to Georgia through Turkey. Sounds fucking rad, please tell me i'm wrong and shouldn't start planning such a trip (i give myself 5 years including getting a motorcycle license and learning to drive that thing first)?
>>2836549I was treated very well as an American in Tbilisi in 2023. Maybe relations have gone downhill with Trump, but the locals mostly hate Russians. Bumble (like tindr) worked pretty well there for me, and it felt like half the profiles specifically stated "No russians". The other half were russian women.
>>2836549As if
I’m thinking of going mid-November. I mostly want to visit nature and villages. Does anyone know anything about Khevsureti? I hear it’s hard to access in winter, but mid-November might be doable. I speak English with a bit of Russian, and from what others have told me, both can get you by with younger people, though more so in Tbilisi than the country.
went to Tbilisi early 2020 just before the coof had an amazing time. the food & wine is incredible and extremely idiosyncratic. bassiani is the best nightclub i've ever been to. everybody was extremely friendly

I have nobody to travel with.How to meet people to make a travel group with?
I ended up booking a group tour with intrepid for one of their under 30(35?) groups. Was a pretty small group of 8 and everyone was pretty nice, did't feel like I was on a touristy tour group, but travelling with a group of friends, the guide was pretty chill too. we gathered to play games like uno every afternoon. A couple of people previously did group tours to places like Peru and Iceland and they were saying the vibes are generally all pretty good, and they kept in touch with some of the people. Immediately after returning home nobody really talked on the gc's anymore, but sometimes ppl would comment on my IG posts or reply to my stories. helped me be somewhat normal and not retarded after not having a lot of social interaction. solo travel just has a way of drawing others together I guess.
>>2833533I hope you experience this so you understand the actual bliss of solo travel by comparison.

>>2837949>sometimes ppl would comment on my IG posts or reply to my stories. helped me be somewhat normal and not retarded after not having a lot of social interaction. solo travel just has a way of drawing others together I guess.Same. Makes me feel normal every time my solo travel buds comment or reply back even after a year of not seeing each other.

>>2838795Just try it out for a holiday, it is really better in SEA, trust me. Just avoid the philippines and you will have much better experience than anywhere in Poland. Girls, food, accommodation, things to do - it's all better for a smaller price. You will need to adjust to their standards and ways of life, but with an open mind it is not a big issue.

I want to visit here. Mainly Kazakhstan, but I'd like to eventually see all of them. What do I need to know in order to prepare myself? I'm an American who's only traveled in first world, highly English-speaking western countries before. Are these countries cheap? What are the must see places? Do I need a tour guide? Are the cities as lively as the western world? How strict Muslim are they? Is it possible to pick up chicks here?

Have you ever been? What was it like? Is the food really as bad as they say?
>>2838208I like monsoonWatching the clouds move and listening to the thunderEating dinner at a restaurant when the downpour hits"No have" is something you hear in any Asian country. Eggs and butter with no meat suits me fine. Full vegan i.e. onions-based meat substitutes, should be avoided.
>>2837932>Have you ever been?2 weeks 7y ago, kathmandu, citwan, pokhara circut with some light hikes on the hills.>What was it like?Superb when it comes to people, everyone besides few scammers in kathmandu is amazing. Nature is also amazing but some places are dirty with trash, akin to india but onthe smaller scale. The cherry on top moment was when I rode an elephant with the village mayor, they invited me because i looked good and could climb it i guess. They had a bread festival and I party with half the village. Before that iI saw 2 rhinos, some elephants and multiple peacocks on Citwan safari.>Is the food really as bad as they say?Its pretty bad, but you can manage, that if you dont have loiht stomach, otherwise youll have cramps, visit shitter pretty often (a bit better than india).

Going to London end of november for the concert on wembley. Should i book a place at wembley district or somewhere else? Only cool thing i saw in this district is some large hinduist temple that looks pretty dope. Any comfy cheapish place you would recommend to book? How to not get killed in London?Other than that - are more touristy London places like BigBen, Buckingham Palace, Abbey church worth to see? Because they are expensive , 50pounds per ticket as i see it. Worth it or not? How the train will be end of november? I am considering taking train London -> Hereford and stop here and there for any places of note, for example this cheaper version of Stonehenge i saw recommended somewhere. I will be in England probably for a week. So should i spend as much as possible in London or train journey to some more rural places, pubs etc also good idea?Thoughts on this plan?
>>2836995Saturday flight price to London can vary from 40£ to ... 18£. For exactly same standard. Only difference is that cheapest 18 pound flight lands in airport at 23:55 - and i have to then find the hotel.Is this a main catch and is this a problem?Do i have large probability of being robbed at that time?
>>2836973Neasden is the temple you're referring to, I assume? It's interesting, if you're into that kind of thingWestminster Abbey is an incredible place and definitely worth seeing in person
Do not under any circumstances stay near WembleyStay central-ish and get the Tube, it's pretty easy
>>2838727Those cheap Ryanair/Easyjet airports have nothing to with London beside the name. They're a 1h+ out of the city and mostly kinda shitty connected.

Long story short, 24 years old and like many burgers, I can't fucking stand living in this shithole any longer. I can already hear the "lol USA is actually amazing" comments, but I'll do a brief explanation. Country is wonderful for nature. I have been to nearly all US states, and I do enjoy some smaller cities. NOLA, Savannah, small town midwest, and mountain west towns are great. This being said, US has zero high culture. Our Capitol is a fucking sad mockery of what any medium sized Euro city has to offer. I like the US, but living in it wagefagging is not for me. If you're rich or uninspired, great. Live in suburban sprawl and die at 70 having done nothing. As for me, I want out.At this point, I'm going to go perma travel mode for the time being. I'm in school online and want to eventually become a Professor, but that's at least 6 years away. I can make at least 1K a month anywhere in the world, which is enough just about anywhere (except the US, another reason I hate this shithole). Anyone have any tips on this? I'm leaving in a month and a half. Starting in London, and going to slowly move across Europe and into Central Asia. Anyone here do super low budget long term? How do you deal with health emergencies? Any hidden gem medium sized cities in Asia that are overlooked?

>>2836150One night while getting a message, Jake has his phone pickpocketed. Classic distraction technique. He's pissed. Having learned nothing from before, he wants revenge again. He thinks he remembers the woman who pickpocketed him, and goes back the next night to get a massage in the same place. This time, he pickpockets her and grabs whatever he can. It's a key. We assume it's to her apartment, but we don't know where that is. So we ask around at neighbouring businesses if anyone knows this thief, but nobody is willing to talk to us. Eventually, one chick very quietly gives us her phone number and tells us to go. She texts us later that it's dangerous to talk, because people are listening. Apparently this thief is pretty well known and connected, and if this chick is found to be talking she could lose her job. But she tells us to meet her in this alley, and then instructs us to follow her, but at a good distance, so it doesn't look like we're together, and she'll point out the apartment building we're looking for. So we get the location, come back at night, and Jake goes in while I stand guard outside. I'm thinking he's gonna get stabbed or something, but whatever, I'm in too deep at this point.What feels like an eternity later, he comes out dragging this woman, and we take her all the way to the police station. At this point I leave to go to sleep. I'm not sure what, if anything, came out of that (a report was made but we weren't aware of the corruption or just lack of caring in the police force). Jake did not get his phone back, and we ended up finding him a bootleg iPhone in Chinatown. So it was pretty inconsequential in the end, but was pretty fun feeling like we were busting some black market ring. I sometimes wonder if we could have gotten involved farther, but we had been threatened a few times while tracking her down so it probably wasn't worth it.
>>2836151A week or two goes by, and I need to leave the country because my visa is expiring. I decide to go to Cambodia because it seems the easiest border to get to and cross. Jake joins me because I still have access to a lot of his money. We have a fun couple nights in some border town making friends with locals, then cross the border, and catch a ride to Siem Reap in the back of a pickup truck, because we're larping as adventurers and a bus is too pedestrian. Now, dragging a recovering heroin addict with me to Cambodia in retrospect was a pretty bad idea. I don't think either of us knew how common drugs were there. Long story short, he ended up relapsing. I regret this a lot, but I was young, drunk, tripping on acid, and didn't really know better. More drinking and partying ensued, but Jake was spending long nights out getting high on H and we were starting to drift apart. Eventually, I had to leave SEA and go back home. I withdrew the rest of his money for him, and we parted ways there. We kept in touch for awhile and he stayed in SEA for a couple years, getting jobs at hostels around different countries. I think he was on and off the drugs but seemed to be in a pretty good space. We fell out of touch eventually though, but I kept checking in on him. Until I started to see his profiles hadn't been updated in awhile. I shoot him a message, no response. Bad feeling in my gut. I do some digging, and find out he's dead. He came home to NYC, couldn't find a job, got back into heroin again, and then I don't know what, but he was dead. Assuming an overdose. Shit still eats at me a little. There were a couple weeks in Thailand where we were pretty much spending every waking hour together, just two kids lost, fucked up, and on some strange trip in an unfamiliar place. It was only a few weeks, but being in that position we had become so close and it stung like hell to find out he was gone. Anyway yeah uh thanks for reading my blog I guess.
>>2836152Oh, also forgot to mention that during all this the King died, so this all took place during that craziness. Was a really surreal time to be in Thailand. For the first couple weeks, public entertainment was banned meaning bars weren't allowed to operate. But the bars couldn't afford to lose their livelihoods, so what that really meant was they operated on the downlow. They were all boarded up, but if you knew people you could sneak in through some back door and still get served. But lights were off, music was off, everybody had to be quiet. A couple times a night, the military would patrol through the streets making sure everything was closed, so you had to whisper and not tell a soul you didn't trust about the places that were open. Was a hell of a thing.
>>2836152Exactly the kind of low-inhib foreigners I wouldn't touch with a ten meter pole in Southeast Asia. Your kind are nothing but trouble.

>>2838573 when you sometimes need to manually enter the price into Alipay/Wechat Holy shit, I forgot about this, it was one of the most annoying travel things ever. They all about woooo techhhh, but to me all this crap seems is ironically archaic. I'm imagining an alternate universe where we start off with AliPay then start using tokens. People will be saying remember we had to do all that clunky shit that was so slow and fiddly, on that device we had to make sure we didn't forget to charge up. No I just hand the guy this little thing and run off, it's amazing
>>2838240an applet is also called a mini program. It's an app inside of the main wechat app which you can use without downloading anything. You swipe down from the top of the main screen and search to access them, or scan a qr code. Useful for your trip because you only have to download wechat and alipay (and preferably gaode maps) all the other apps you can use within wechat itself>>2838577to be fair, it is very easy to keep your phone charged in China because of the public use powerbanks that are absolutely everywhere.Also, they only make you manually enter the price when it's you scanning to pay, which has the same convenience for the vendor as cash (no need to buy a payment processor or pay credit card fees) and avoids all the hassle of counting and converting cash. The main advantage of wechat pay over credit cards and cash isn't for the consumer, it's for the vendor - just having a qr code to collect all payments is so easy. Nobody is stopping you from using cash in China but they probably won't have change
>>2838583I download the Applet, sadly it's only in mandarin. It is amazing how the swipe function exists hidden in plain sight, I'd never have discovered it if you never told me. Maybe I'll find other applets that will be if use to me.The Ali pay does make sense for vendors. One day it'll be more smooth
>>2838058>Qingdao is the former German concession, lots of German influence and beer. Very clean and organised, it's a good place for expats wanting a taste of home but I would not recommend for normal touristsI was thinking of going to Qingdao as a stop between Beijing and Shanghai, why wouldnt you recommend it?
>>2838760if you've just come from Europe/America and are wanting to experience Chinese culture then it's very boring. There is just beer, European style houses, and seafood. It is basically just a scaled-down Shanghai with a German touch. Basically zero traditional architecture or anything historical or cultural bar beer.If you are looking for a similar experience, then I think Yantai and Penglai nearby would be more interesting.If you are just coming for the skyscrapers and beer then go ahead, but it's not an "authentic" China experience at all.I personally enjoyed my time there but that's because I had been surrounded by concrete commieblocks for ten months
Muslims beheaded Canadian mining company consultants in Mindanao who were helping torture and kill indigenous Lumads.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Ridsdel>At the time of the kidnapping, he was retired. Prior to that he had been working for the mining company TVI Resource Development Philippines Inc.,[3] a subsidiary of Canada's TVI Pacific, where he was also a consultant.>Ridsdel was kidnapped by Abu Sayyaf militants in the Philippines on 21 September 2015, in a raid on Holiday Ocean View Samal Resort, on Samal Island in the southern Philippines.[4] After the gunmen disarmed the resort's security guards, they abducted four people from the resort, the Canadians John Ridsdel and Robert Hall, the resort's Norwegian marina manager Kjartan Sekkingstad, and a Filipino woman, Teresita Flor.[5]>The kidnappers later issued demands for a hefty ransom to be paid for the release of the hostages, reportedly 300 million pesos (around $6.5 million) for each of the three foreigners seized. As the deadline lapsed on 25 April 2016, they apparently beheaded Ridsdel.[6] Ridsdel's head was found in a plastic bag in Jolo.[7] A headless body, possibly Ridsdel's, was later found by villagers by a creek bed near Talipao. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police launched an international murder investigation.[8]The company he worked for was involved in torturing and killing indigenous Lumad people (Lumads are not Muslim btw)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TVI_Pacific>In 2015 TVI was mentioned along with several other mining companies as being the likely beneficiary of a series of government-funded murders of the indigenous Lumads who live in the Mindanao region of the Philippines, an area rich in mineral resources to which these companies would like better access.[3]Comment too long.

>>2799910>"Your gift is too great for me"I think it's fucked up to kill these consultants. they are obviously seen as representatives of the company and the people had no other target to take our their frustrations on, but maybe don't go torturing and killing and stealing other countries minerals to build your mega corporations so they're not entirely innocent. there will come a time when the people responsible for the rape of the entire world will be held responsible. I just hope when that happens that we're not all like these consultants. just close enough to take the punishment. the only target that they can take their frustrations on. who am i kidding. that's exactly what's going to happen. it's the plan every time. that's why the jews are telling the entire world that white people are evil. while it's the jews that are destroying these areas, profiting from the destruction, and then importing the victims into the west to kill us westerners who just needed to feed our families.

Op here quick question. If i bought an e sim and deactivated my old primary line fir the time being while I’m on the trip and then when I come back and delete the e sim and re activate my old line, will I receive all the missed calls that should’ve been received by my old line or will they be lost?
I'm from Copenhagen, more exact Frederikberg area.I hate niggersI hate PerkerAnd I hate stupid tourist that don't know how to use the bike lane.Here is a shitty tourist guide if you want to experience the true soul of Copenhagen.Go to Proud Mary or Irish Beer bar right next to Tivoli and get a pint. (It's the biggest Irish beer bar in Scandinavia actually)Ok now you go to a local danish pub, we call it "Brun Stue" as in the brown living room cause of all the years of smoke and shit accumulating on the walls of the pub. I'd recommend Benni's Bar or Hos Robert. Find some old alcholic and offer him a smoke and a glass Tuborg.Good. Now it's time for you to go to istergade (The redlight of Denmark) I'd urge you to stay away from the black ones cause they got all the herpes. After that you could go to the meat district and eat at "warpigs".If you wanna get some heroin or get your drugs tested for free with no consequences then go to H17 or as we call it "Herberg / fikser rum"Comment too long.

Share your Seoul/Jeju/Busan routes, accommodation hacks, transit tips and underrated spots. Budget to luxury - all travelers welcome!
>>2837521>Gyeongju = old ass burial mounds. UNESCO listed.Gyeongju has several days' worth of historical stuff, the mounds were not even close to my favorite places thereI very much liked the vibe of Gyeongju in general. People sometimes refer to it as the "Kyoto of Korea" and maybe the government is trying a bit too hard to force it to be that rather than its own thing, but it still has plenty of charm.Yes the temples are mostly modern reconstructions for obvious reasons, but solid efforts were made to reconstruct using the original materials and methods.Overall highly recommended for a couple of days, especially as a trip from Busan.
>>2837700you can also head to the reservoir area there and rent ATVs and rip shit up. It is pretty fun imo. Just be aware that the main KTX station is a bit out of town and you will need to jump on transit into the actual town. If you take a bus from Busan or the older slower rail service it will get you into the action. The food in Gyeongju is probably the only let done. Busan is a good base, but if you want something more quieter and authentic, Miryang a bit south from there is also pretty nice in the Spring and Fall. There are loads of pension places to stay. If it is warm enough there are also some nice camping sites along the river where you will end up being co opted by a group of older Koreans who will get you wasted. There are also loads of places to hike, and Pyochungsa which is a quieter temple that is also quite nice.
>>2814016i did this, seoul was extremely boring after having gone to japan. wouldn't recommend. at least go out to some towns in the countryside or down to jeju island. go somewhere more interesting scenically like vietnam if you want to see another asian country.
