I want to visit this country. Has anyone been here? What are the best things to do? Most delicious food to eat? Do the girls like white guys? Please post everything you know about traveling in the CAR.
>>2897804Who do you think is shilling it? No one from /trv/ has been to subsaharan Africa much less this particular groidfest

Is Laos the DLC of Thailand?
>>2892691you might hear dogs.Don Det was the best place i went but that was 20 years ago. an island in the river. sleep and eat in a wooden hut. walk the island, maybe hire a bicycle. drink a few beers. do nothing. possibly quite a bit different, maybe it's the same. it was on the route from the capital to cambodia so wasn't a hassle to get there and was a standard stop for backpackers. maybe it's not talked about much (idk know if it is or not) because people just go to luang prabang and the capital and leave.
>>2901358The number of overland travelers wandering across the country and stopping at such points along the way has definitely gone down in the past 20 years. The cheap lodging resorts often charge high prices for food. I mentioned this to an English speaking guy and he laughingly agreed, that's how business catering to foreign backpackers is run. Spending 3x your accomodation budget in food and drink is not unheard of.>>2900650More like four or five dollars equivalent in Lao kip.
>>2886279Laos for if you like yellow girls salted with thai, Nepal for if you want to try spicy, masala brown mountain girls
>>2901394how come Laos is no good at Track and Field?They are always getting Laap-ed.
>>2900205>they
European media and American media says America, especially southern states, are horrible places to visit. But everytime my countrymen visit they say America is paradise and Americans are the nicest people in the world with the best food. Who is lying?
>>2899346The key to living in the South is making northern/california money while living there otherwise
>>2899343Everything you see on the internet is controlled by browns and yellows from shitholes with no freedom like India and China. After you know that then its better to reduce the amount people that talk about our country here.

Can't believe there isn't a general about Nam already, even though everyone and their mother is going there.I myself did Saigon, Da Nang, Hoi An, Hanoi, and the Ha Giang Loop earlier this year. Can highly recommend all of it.
can you cheaply travel in phu quoc? seems like a high price touristy destination
>>2879342I'm a white guy who speaks it and I'd be appalled if anyone read that shit and thought it was me :((( so cringe
>>2874305>didkys
>>2874339I tried it once. No idea it was that bad for your brain. Fortunately it was just a one time thing.
>>2901901It's not at all bad for you and literally used in dentists across the planetWhat's bad is lack of oxygen which people doing balloons do to themselves from being idiots rather than knowing the proper way to imbibe.

>>2889045this looks like the most retarded hippy shit that doesn't actually workespecially in Thailand you cant smell anything but the overwhelming stench of warm shit from the sewers
>>2886791>>2886797>>2888839When I first arrived to Japan. I felt nips smelled like fish and green tea, and Tokyo itself smelled like an overheated machine, sea salt and fish. But I got used to it after a while.After arriving home and smelling my clothes, I sensed the same essence.
I'll explain.(Buy domestic deodorant before going abroad)The region you're visiting (I'm assuming Japan?) Has a population with a certain gene that makes sweat odorless (9/10?) Same in Korea. You don't have that. Not only do you not have that but your diet determines the strength of your odor too. Tldr you need to research or buy domestic deodorant (which will be no problem if you live in America)
>>2901760>he believes the we wuz kangz bullshit propaganda unironically
>>2901481Ive given up worrying if i smell slightly bad or my clothes are dirty. Theres some French people who just absolutely stench up the place just dont be one of them but you can go without deodorant and wear a shirt for a week no problem as long as you shower every day or two, then just wash it in the sink.

Anon who says it's partially about overhead space is right. Also overbooked flights.I also can't fucking stand how I have one book bag and all these cocksuckers have a roller bag, a book bag, a plastic shopping bag, a parka for the fucking Iditarod....check the roller for free at the gate you fucking duncecunt.
>>2901804Irrelevant if yall check your bag or aren't flying in america. Last 5 flights I've had the bins are half empty. Anyway you just stick your purse <yall clearly are fags> under the seat in front of you. Lmao are yall really hauling your luggage through two airports to save $35?
Hi, I'm an Europoor in my mid 20s visiting family in DC in a few weeks. I'll see them for the weekend but everyone will be gone by Monday afternoon. I have a shit tonne of annual leave that I have to use and I've been spending it just watching TV shows the last few years. So I decided to not book a return ticket and explore.My family said it's not a good idea since I have no car, no driving license and America is very autocentric. However, I have hope. Hope that a sliver of America exists outside of the Freeway. Are there any places I should visit? I can be here for max 2 weeks. I have maybe $5,000 to spend. I noticed you have trains that run overnight. I am happy to spend a few nights sleeping on the plane. I don't need much sleep.Problem, I am a very good religious man. I am not interested in Miami nightlife, hookers, bars, clubs, concerts, hookup culture, etc. I want to have a fun trip. I want an American experience but like Phineas and Ferb so I want to try stuff like the tallest roller-coaster, hike in a national park, try hunting maybe, jetski, whatever is fun. I don't want to see buildings all day or have a tour guide. Washington DC will be enough. Maybe NYC or Boston because they have a lot to see but that's about it.Either a North East trip or a trip that's all over North America. I also don't mind Mexico and Canada.Help me plan this please. I have no friends.
>>2901775The US is extremely racist. All of the 13/50 memes and such from 10 years ago have become mainstream and every tiktok user is inundated with it. The liberal's fear of that information getting out, and how the public would misinterpret it, proved to be correct. Now every normie thinks literally black people are criminals, all asian people are high IQ etc. They don't understand statistics or probability, unironically. If you pull a 19 year old brown latina girl from the bronx, and you strip away the ebonics and slang, her way of thinking is identical to an Aryan nations skinhead in prison.Why did this happen? Because the unemployed are the drivers of culture. When black people were unemployed, as is their natural disposition, they were the ones driving culture through rap and stuff. But then Obama and Biden gave all the black guys jobs and the demographics of the unemployed shifted to white men.
>>2901778I mean those memes are mainstream even amongst the migrant communities here in Europe. We share the same Internet to the extent that I and many younger Europeans have a slightly British/American accent due to growing up watching those English speaking TV shows, films and YouTube videos. It hasn't turned Europe into a no-go zone for non Europeans, it's probably done the opposite. I think that's the same for the US. The average young person might be more cognisant of certain truths that would have been talking points on /pol/ over a decade ago but it's mundane and accepted as factual instead of being a hot topic issue. Yh black guys commit more crime, you are now not blinded by idealism but the moment someone doesn't give off "YN" signals, you'll relax.
>>2898076you can use your eu drivers license in america
>>2901795I have no driver's license.On another note, I guess I sort of self doxxed. Someone I met an hour ago said they seen this post>he tried to record me on his phone but I slipped a corner fastI would like it to be taken down. I have self reported.
>>2901775Could you try harder to not sound like you are pretending to be retarded
>checkout time is at 10>check-in time is at 3We're just expected to wander the streets without food, water, or toilet during peak UV time.
>>2898910Should have researched beforehand. I can believe that inconvenience happening to boomers from 30 years ago, but not in the current year of our lord when you can even find pictures of the toilet of your room.
>>2901480I was armpits deep into weird nippon shit and drinking a lot, give me a breakThey're retarded with extending your stay, if you don't book an extension 24 hours before it breaks the entire system and they can't handle it so you have to go elsewhere.I would end up booking down the road for one night instead, then coming back to the same place the next night because they would now accept my booking. 5 story hotel was empty apart from me and the cleaner, was fucking weird. "Receptionist" contacted me back at 9pm that night asking me if I still wanted to extendYou underestimate jap autism when faced with people who have no travel plans, left my bags in a laundry room another time when the exact same thing happened because I obviously didn't learn my lesson the first time
>>2898830I bend them over and assfuck them on reviews if check out is any later than noon. >b-but you agreed when you rented the roomDon't care, not my problem, suck my dick.
>>2899102So do I, and I have no problem dining out or exploring a city with my luggage (unless it's pouring rain). If your duffel is small and tight enough it won't affect your ability to walk.
>>2898830>peak UV timeif only someone were to invent the hat, then all you're problems would be solved.
I am planning a trip to Venice. How do I make the most of it? I want to stay in a decent area away from the tourist center visit less travelled places like the cemetery island, the insane asylum island, the Armenian monastery, etc. I’d also like to visit Trieste and Bologna as day trips. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I’ve been all over Italy except Venice, I chose to go to Verona and Lake Garda last time.
>>2899262>>2899284I agree with this anon, not the whole island is a tourist hellhole. I got an Airbnb somewhere in Cannareggio, facing one of the canals but not the Grand Canal. It was super chill, there were streets that were just for locals (old italian babushkas) and you had some local restaurants were it was a lot of italians eating there.Mestre is an option, but then you're stuck in Mestre at night, and honestly just leaving the house at 11PM and wandering the city at night is an amazing experience. Keep in mind a lot of tourists don't actually stay in the islands so the city empties out at night. It sucks because there's no nightlife, but at the same time it lets you enjoy the city in a more intimate way. I would say try to sleep in the island, if nightwalks is something you would do.
>>2899267Cannaregio is nice place to stay. Mostly quiet and away from main tourist places. Parts of Dorsodouro are OK also. I assume there are decent small areas of Castello. San Marco, San Polo are haram if you hate tourists though there is a lot of good shit there and quiet places.
>>2899298Castello is your best bet, avoid the islands as there's nothing to do/see and you need a boat to move around. Do not eat anywhere near Rialto or S. Marco, there are exceptions to this but it's easier for you to just stay away. Prepare to walk a lot, try to avoid the summer and the winter. Bologna is not a day trip, Trieste is and it's worth it. Do you have any specific questions? t. Venetian
>>2901204Is there any food that isnt cuttlefish ink an sardines?
>>2901204>CastelloI think I stayed here on my first visit, I was about 7 minutes away from the Arsenale. Lovely area, but I think it's still a bit touristic, isn't it? But yes, it's definitely better than anywhere near S. Marco.>t. Venetiando you have a couple of nice cafes to recommend? Somewhere with a bit of a local vibe, not the fancy places at Piazza di San Marco
I'm caressing the idea of traveling the hungarian countryside for a week, starting and ending in Budapes to meet some fellas.I'm getting some idea of potential bits of itinarery (gyor-sopron, Székesfehérvár-lake balaton-pecs, Kecskemét-Szeged, Visegrad-esztergom, Hajdúszoboszló-Debrecen), but I'm wondering:-How well connected are hungarians cities with bus and trains?-How cyclable is the Hungarian countryside? Would a week of cycling from city to city be possible? Best direction to take from Budapest?-Is it easy to come back to budapest in a train with the bike at the end, since I'd probably end up quite far?-Any place that's both cool to see and reachable with either public transport or bicycle?
>>2900630Ah fuck, I finally settled on making 3 big biking days (Budapest-Esztergom, Esztergom-Gyor, Gyor-Bratislava) with a day of rest between each, adding 10km to a nearly 100km ride is going to be painful.But hey, for the kofola, i'll do it
>>2900587>Are the baths outside of the city more like public pools and not 100% mineral spring water like in some of the Budapest baths???Almost all baths in Hungary are 100% mineral spring water, we have more than we know what to do with. Harkány is the most famous near Pécs, I'd check that out, although you will probably find more grannies there than hot babes. If you want to find chicks, Pécs itself is one of the best places to look. It's an university town, so full of hot, young babes, and there's actual nightlife there, unlike most other cities of comparable size. Be warned, it is very much an "alternative" scene, so expect to see a lot of altgirls and weirdos all over the place.
>>2900630>Make sure to try Kofola when you're in Slovakia.Kofola sucks fucking ass, if you want to get the actual best commie Coca-Cola substitute, try some Cockta in one of the ex-Yugoslav countries.
>>2893055>(gyor-sopron, Székesfehérvár-lake balaton-pecs, Kecskemét-Szeged, Visegrad-esztergom, Hajdúszoboszló-Debrecen)very good, include Veszprém on the way Székesfehérvár-Balaton round, the old inner city beautiful. also include Eger on the north. im not sure Hajdúszoboszló worths a visit.>How well connected are hungarians cities with bus and trains?excellently, but dont expect modern vehiches and sharp schedules.>How cyclable is the Hungarian countryside?we have great cycling routes but you have to find some specific maps for them. i surely know the lakes Balaton and Velencei can be cycled around.
>>2901407>try some Cockta in one of the ex-Yugoslav countries.I have, and it's an interesting flavor profile. But it's not even remotely close to being as good as Kofola. To be fair, you'd have to be a huge faggot to enjoy a drink called COCKta.
Going to Italy for a week. What's the best food to get
>>2899569Risotto or cotoletta orecchio di elefante
>>2898050I've always assumed the dislike for authentic Italian pizza steers from americans getting short-circuited from not eating bloated McPizzas.I've tried italian style pizzas in a lot of places and I've always considered them to be amazing.Thin, minimalistic ingredients so you can taste them in full, with freshly cut tomatoes and a slight taste of charcoal. It actually feels like having a healthy meal which you can eat all by yourself.What's not to love?
>>2898045>>2898050>>2901479>Thread about food in Italy>Retards can't stop thinking about AmericaWhy is this so common?
>>2901479>Thin, minimalistic ingredients so you can taste them in full, with freshly cut tomatoes and a slight taste of charcoal. It actually feels like having a healthy meal which you can eat all by yourself.I can make that at home for a fraction of the price. And sometimes I do and it still tastes better than what Italy is doing. "Muh fresh ingredients" is a meme because you can get fresh ingredients in any country that has a farmer's market, or any first world country with a proper non-Walmart/non-Lidl/non-Aldi supermarket.Traveling to eat a plain tomato on bread is boring. I want something that'll impress me and that I can't get elsewhere.
>>2901533Because the truth that no one wants to admit is that American pizza tastes better than Italian pizza
How many of you travel alone?Do you make casual social contact with strangers on your trips, at airports, bars, streets?Share stories and tips
>>2901721Best I could manage is meeting a couple lads in a hostel to go to a bar/club with. It's fun on its own, but you need to be a genuine prime Chad if you think you have any chance to meet women
>>2901721>Solo traveled to Ukraine>Made tinder account>Got laidThat's the only worthy thing to do while traveling alone tbqh>>2901731also thismet some nice fellas when i was homeless for 3 months (living in hostels)
>>2901721I don’t because I’m a loser who just wants to be a loser in peace and I don’t want to be judged for it.
>>2901725>>2901731>>2901753I'm interested in actual stories, can be greentext. How was contact initiated? How did it go? How did it end?
