I had a dream that I was in the Nunavut province of Canada and it felt strange. I haven't been to Canada in like 18 years so I have no connection to it, nor have I been to Alaska
>>2869636if you really want to go Canada for some reason you can drive to Yukon and go see Dawson City but apart from that there isn't much to see
>>2869624theres a basic no frills ferry that goes from washington to alaska. i wanna take that some day. no internet, seems chill.
There’s a Canadian train that goes to Hudson Bay that I’ve always wanted to ride.
Baffin Island is so ridiculously huge. Most of it looks like impassable tundra swamp, but if you fly into Iqaluit you can take a few hikes. Overall the Far North is so inaccessible and hyper expensive that only the wealthiest people visit it as a tourist destination. I've heard Yellowknife is an okay kind of place to spend the summer if you like endless daylight and mild temperatures.>>2869670The Alaska Panhandle is not geographically part of the Far North. It is heavily forested and sees surprisingly mild winters.
>>2869712What made you go there?
Planning on doing a week-long vacation on my gap year. I've wanted to travel to Europe for a long time and I've pinpointed two locations I most want to go to. I've picked either The Netherlands or Britain for my vacation. I've been interested in both countries for a while now and I can't decide on which one to go to.Britain is a very tempting choice. I have a lot of British ancestry so I've got a connection to the land and it has a lot of places I'd like to visit, like the Tower of London, the Natural History Museum, the National Portrait Gallery and the London Eye but I'm also curious about visiting Nottingham, as I've heard it's got good nightlife and has a bunch of interesting pubs like the "Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem" which I hear is one of the oldest pubs in the UK. A British pub is the number one thing I want to experience the most.The Netherlands also struck me as a good travel destination as it's very similar to the UK but just on a budget. The Netherlands also has some good destinations such as the Rijksmuseum, the Ton Smits Huis and the Anne Frank house but with that said, Amsterdam has a pretty bad reputation with drugs and prostitution so if I did visit, I'd probably stay in Rotterdam or Eindhoven.Any thoughts?
>>2867523>>2868667Went to Podgorica to transfer to Albania and milled around for some hours. Its easily the most boring city I've visited, there's quite literally nothing to do there AT ALL. But it can be used as a base to the more scenic parts of the country, to what I gather. I saw some of the generic coastal cities in Croatia (Dubrovnik, Split, Trogir) but aside from the communist museum in the former, there's not much to say about Yugoslav ruins. Of my brother's travels the coolest thing I saw was the Mostar bridge which was destroyed during the wars and rebuilt, though I'm not sure if you'd find it interesting. I believe Kosovo is meant to be really cheap from what he said but this was years ago and such may not be the case... I'm also not sure if it would be Podgorica 2.0. I would recommend Germany, note the north-south divide. The south is more catholic which tends to lead to more aesthetics and prettier stuff, the area near Austria is max. comfy. Austrian Tyrol and Switzerland have imo the best landscapes in Europe, though I haven't been to Zakopane or most of Spain. I do find the architecture in the north of Germany to be a bit more restrained and similar to the UK and low countries (with more glimpses of flashiness so to speak). Again, Germany is no more expensive than the UK/ Low Countries. What I will warn is the the train network is confusing as fuck for someone who doesn't live there and you absolutely want to use the Deutsche Bahn (DB) app to use them. Since some trains are regional (regional bahn RB or something like that), for the whole country (iirc?) and intercontinental (ICE) you get different sorts of tickets for different ranges and its a fucking hassle when you've lived on an island and know of no such thing.
>>2867523>Baltics>super cheapNot anymore. They are highly developed First World countries with First World prices for everything except booze. Tourist services like lodging are very limited outside the larger towns, so your wanderings will be quite limited. Topography is generally dull. Summer temps are cool to balmy. Most tourists stay in the biggest cities, which have plenty of street life. Polish girls are prettier than Baltic girls. Poland is also cheaper, but less friendly to English/Russian speakers than their Eurozone neighbors.
Lithuania was basically a zero service country.>self check in hotels>self check out supermarkets>app purchased railway ticketsI spent more money per day than any other country I've been to, but felt like I was getting less than anywhere else as well. The mix of soulless modern construction and dilapidated Soviet era infrastructure was the main interesting thing about the country. Everyone is moving to the prosperous cities; the countryside is quaint but lifeless.
>>2867092>I'd like to visit, like the Tower of London, the Natural History Museum, the National Portrait Gallery Nothing can replace them. Amazing. You can easily add another 20 iconic things to do in London.>and the London Eyewell, this is new, might enjoy a dinner cruise on the Thames for the same hassle of waiting and lines.>spring breakVisit gardens, nothing like them!
>>2868665>Eindhoven... whyI'm going to a festival in Ysselsteyn in June and that's the nearest city. The village looks nice as well so I will explore that a bit if I can.
Would you travel this route?
>>2863117nah, too easy
>>2863117>>2863787i met some guy in mexico that claimed to have done it all by bicycle

>>2869784There's no shame in that on a slow board
Name a place in Sub-Saharan Africa where you could spend rest of your life:>Must be in continental Sub-Saharan Africa (none of that ocean island tropical paradise like Mauritius)>You are allowed to spend any money you got on your new house/apartment/shack, car etc.>You are subject to local laws just like everyone else>You can leave the country for few weeks per year to meet family, for vacation etc, like usually people do>You expect to spend rest of your life in there, living through whatever local economy/politics/society brings in incoming decadesWhat countries/regions/cities/towns goes to your mind?Easy mode: you have annual passive income of 100k (inflation adjusted).
>>2869326>Brazilyou truly cant suffer in that shithole huh
>>2869326...so Angola?
>>2869611any major subsaharan african city will have these kind of girls in clubs and bars, but be careful because they are gold diggers and will probably scam you
>>2869277Coastal Kenya, down to Tanzania (zanzibar).Thats a mixed race African but you can find lots of women with that body type on the coast around tourist areas.
Also above is correct. Any African woman on a dating app or in a club is a gold digger/scammer. I spent several months in the region and im not exaggerating, every other woman I met tried to scam me somehow, eventually. Even the woman I spent most of my time with eventually tried to cash out, when she got the feeling I was leaving soon.Remember this: if she's not employed and not living with her family doing chores and taking care of kids, she's sustaining her lifestyle by being paid by men.

Based on my two weeks observation, indian men travel to Thailand in order to pay thai men (ladyboys) to suck their cocks and fuck them in the ass.
>>2870579I love fat women though. Especially fat Asian women.
>>2870685Would you date a fatty? I've got one that I actually really like spending time with, she fucks good, had huge tits and ass but I'm still a bit embarrassed to be seen with her.
>>2870723Yeah I have and would again. They make great gfs, or at least they did in the west before social media yasssss slay queen shit. You're probably still cool in SEA. Just own that shit nigga nobody who matters cares.
>>2870723>I'm still a bit embarrassed to be seen with her.If people can tell your embarrassed then you look like a bitch. If you have an aura of confidence and just act like a regular guy with his gf, nobody is likely to think twice.
I'm going to go to Cambridge tomorrow by car for career reasons.Which car parks are reasonably priced and what can I do for a day trip there?
>>2869595Is it really so hard to just google "things to do Cambridge"?
>>2869595>college boy doesn't know how to use GoogleAll that fancy education for nothing I guess.
Harvard is pretty interesting to see but honestly you might as well just take the red line and go to Boston proper

>>2865403Anyone have some of the best recommendations for hair transplant clinics where they use my own hair to fill in the bald spots on the back of my head?
>>2865403yes
>>2865970I am thinking about gaziantep :)
>>2865403There are a lot of affordable Christian sites from before the Muzzies genocided them.
bumpAny adult entertainment options in Istanbul? Been trawling the internets and so far it seems pretty miserable
Previous thread: >>2847685Come and visit the ultimate normie-filter travel destination. Dive in and get to experience what they are missing out on.
>>2869483You can find them in the most random parts of the country. A couple days ago some villagers were showing me hospitality and their cute teenage daughter came up to try out her English. She was wearing a knee-length dress, but unlike the norm for Indian women, she wasn't wearing anything underneath, and she was being quite bold as well, leaning close to talk to me and brushing my leg with her hand when giving me tea. The sexual tension was growing, but then her two brothers suddenly materialized to glower at me rather unwelcomingly, and she shyly retreated into the background of the living room (which had a floor carved out of the hillside rock). The bro only relaxed when his dad had him bring me back to town on their motorbike, which he gladly did.Extremely strong & protective family structures make it difficult to be a Mr. John Conquest taking virginities left and right in even the poorest villages here. In an anarchic society like India, punishment for misbehavior comes not from law enforcement, but from the people all around you. Yeah, they may seem passive and weak when viewed individually, but when they get enraged by a breach of hospitality, like sexual impropriety with a female of the household as a guest, the tables can turn within a few seconds. Most foreigners visiting India prefer to respect the culture and live in harmony with the inhabitants.
India is running out of propane very quickly. Tonight the Chinese place refused to cook me anything due to LPG shortage....but then changed their mind, evidently after hefting the tank and determining that there was still enough gas to fulfil my order. Once things properly run out, many restaurants will have to shut down completely. Charcoal fires and induction cooktops will be the only viable cooking methods. People here are not happy with the USA fucking up their LPG supply, but they don't blame me for the actions of my government, to which I pay as few tax dollars as I possibly can.
>>2865999>Bangalore anon scored a good dealThat was exactly that, on google maps it let me chose several options to book and if I did it on agora the price was way lower. Normally the room was 3000 but it got down to 1200 or something I don't remember anymore now.I'm now in Tiruvannamalai in an airbnb who has a 25% reduction for a weekly stay so I have something very good for 1900 a night.I just arrived at 2pm so can't tell but the city itself looks way too touristy, didn't expect that. At least 99% of tourist are Indians but it's a weird vibe. Gonna do a few day trips from there anyway.
>>2869483If you just want to look then anywhere. The souther the browner.If you want to touch then big cities and use Tinder to filter the 99.9% who'd never date or fuck a foreigner. But that's still a huge amount of girls who'll come to your hotel 1 hour after you matched.Or just go to London.
>>2869505How much time did it take you to go from "I'll play it safe" to just drop in villages, take a shitty no ac hotel with bedbugs and eat in shady places?I'm not scared about the people and walking alone for hours in hills and stuff, but I really don't want to get ultra sick in some village and stuck here until I recover getting bit all night by weird bugs.
one day I’m gonna go to venice and see the sixteen chapels.
>>2868571Then what? You've walked the same route a million other tourists have walked, seen the same shit they've seen, and paid a bunch of money to do so. Are you even Catholic? Why would the chapels mean anything to you?
>>2869547So you can experience it for yourself? What kinda stupid take is this? Billions of people have eaten the same yummy foods, or had sex, or had the same feeling or sensation. Doesn't mean it's not worth trying for yourself. In fact you won't know it at all unless you do it for yourself
>>2869550The "experience" of staring at an old building in the city center and taking selfies with it. Hah. Lame. You only want to do it because so many other people have done it. If it was not popular, it wouldn't have any appeal to you.
>>2869552You know there are other things to do while traveling, right?No one flies to another country just for 1 selfie then flies back, then hang around for a week or so doing other fun things. Theres a reason travel is popular
Wtf happens here?! >huge country>absolutely beautiful>same part of world as Thailand and Vietnam kino>ancient history >probably cheap as fuckIs it an Islamic hellhole, or an untapped resource? There must be some amazing experiences lurking in the 10million islands*apart from Bali
>>2834644>works it out in the first sentence
>>2867993Why do you need to research a country before you visit? It's completely unnecessary. Bahasa Indonesia uses Roman lettering, so you can read and pronounce it easily. Spend a couple days in your arrival city to get cash and a SIM card, then board a bus for any place that suits your fancy. It's fun to go bus shopping at the bus station, looking up each destination on your phone before making your decision. >>2866922You're gonna be another one of those "Vietnam is awesome and every other Asian country sucks" posters, who is somehow unable to specify exactly why he finds this to be the case.
>>2867993they will be fine as long as they get out of Jakarta as quick as possible and do not get caught in the trap of the """"hotels""""" around town.
>>2868013VN will be my 10th country in the last 5 months. I've already been there before and of course it's great. Other countries are great too. Why are you super-imposing your pessism onto a completely random stranger on 4chan lmao.
>>2859882>but I'd hope with all the sudden competition from ladies that would have been too afraid to do it before>too afraid to do it beforeahhhhhhhhhh yaaa... all those girls too scared to follow their dream of being paid a third of what they get for free for existing from a solid 3rd of the population, to get std and fuck angry chuds who think women should be killed.
I want to do a tour of the Pyrenees. Starting in the Basque country or maybe even farther west in Portugal/Galicia, make my way into the mountains and visit the massive world class spa in Andorra, do some hiking, come down into Catalonia, and finish with southern France and maybe an afternoon in Monaco to say I went. Anything I should see/avoid along this itinerary?
>>2859536I have only been on the Spanish side but Basque country should not be missed. Bilbao is a nice enough city but the countryside out there is unreal, enjoy the food
Monaco isnt that great but you should stop by Eze and Menton which are near.While you are in the Pyrenees I suggest you try canyoning, lots of great spots there both side of the border
>>2859536that's not the Pyrenees, that's a bath tub
>>2867223Caldea is the best bathtub on the planet
>>2859536Lots of European travelers shitting up the board lately, even though it's still meteorological winter. Where are all the Asia travelers at?
whats your favourite country that offers a 90 day visa free entry for your passport? for me its probably south africa
For me, it’s Taiwan. I’ve never been to SA, what do you like about it?
Japan
Hi all, I'm looking to travel to the UK for winter, which I think I just missed so probably end of this year. I'm probably planning on spending a week or 2 in England, spending a week in Ireland, and then a week In Scotland.I don't have a budget in mind currently but since I'll probably be flying there in maybe November/December I should be good, but just in case what would be a good budget for 3-4 weeks traveling around the UK?I'm interested in brutalist architecture, and also would love to go hiking on some nice trails/mountains. I also wanna see snow which is why I'm going in winter. would be a nice break from the shitty Australian heat. I would also love to see some castles, medieval times are really interesting to me!I'll of course see the usual stuff in england, Big Ben, london eye, etc but I'm not too sure what to see in scotland or ireland, or if I should even bother going to them and just spend all my time in england.Any suggestions would be awesome, I only really have this general plan for now. would be my first overseas trip and would love to make the most of it. if it all goes well i might even move there lmao
>>2865666Nice trips Satan.Do consider the Norf. You could slash half of the two whole ass weeks you're planning to spend in London and use them better up north before continuing to Scotland. Outside of the major cities, the North is extremely kino and basically a different country compared to London. But do avoid Birmingham, Manchester, Newcastle, Blackpool etc. and Mohammedan strongholds like Bradford.
>>2865667yeah i feel like im spending too much time in london, i probably only wanna spend like a day in london at the end to just decompress and do some fun before the flight back...
>>2864707go ahead and enjoy yourself
>>2864707The UK is miserable in the winter, constant grey skies, short days, it isn't cold, there's now snow, it's not a nice time of year to visit.
>>2864757>Portsmouth would be worth a visit for the historic dockyard but not much else (there is also a castle just outside the cityThe walls of the castle, Portchester, are some of the best-preserved Roman remains in England (though the keep and church are obviously later, being mediaeval)
>check out pic related - lonely planet japan> its just recommendation of restaurants and coffees with some shitty overpaid workshops added for good measure>no mention of specific nature places like mountains, beaches, no deeper cultural context in temple descriptions. No mentions on music festivals. Or it is but burried under diarea of tourist traps recommendationsI want to travel to see something beautiful, not to just consoom
>>2868917Demonic pagan temples are not going to give me peace.
>>2867453>it hallucinated Blue Guide Japankill yourself nigger and stop shitting up the board
>>2869077Then stay home or visit great christian countries like the Central African Republic. You can even join in on some circumcisions and suck a baby dick, rabbi.
>>2867441>>2865629Enough weeb threads
The Japanese from villages far from civilization are very racist and despise foreigners at least thats what i have heard
