Is Milwaukee a nice city to visit for a day or two? I'm going to the Midwest for the first time in a few weeks and am interested in that place far more than Minneapolis.
>>2890181Milwaukee has some decent things>Zoo (Very large by land area, excellent Zoo train, Elephant habitat, cure Dairy zone too)>Museum (closing Jan 2027)>Art Museum>The Safe House>Cheap Baseball>Mitchell Park Domes>Art Museum>Harley-Davidson MuseumYou could do a few days there.Usingers, Sprecher, Miller, Pabst have decent tours for all your beer and sausage needs.July 4 fireworks have historically been pretty decent too.
>>2891665>Mitchell Park DomesEvery since seeing those on Joe Pera’s show I’ve been wanting to see them
>>2890181I visited it.It depends on what you're looking for.

My well-intentioned boomer dad wants to do a two-week Spanish immersion course in Spain. He's trying to decide between somewhere in Andalusia, Salamanca, Madrid, and Tenerife. I suggested going to Salamanca for the medieval history, but most of all I'm concerned about all the law-abiding astronauts and lawyers pouring into Spain, especially since hearing the news that half a million of them got legalized. It would be too bad if my dad was dreaming of castles, tapas, and Cervantes and then got disillusioned by third-world undesirables (including fat british pub lads)How is the situation over there? I assume the situation in Andalusia and the Canaries is worse than in Salamanca or Madrid? Do you have any suggestions for where he should go?
>>2889134>go and visit them in their own countriesBut I do, you weird larper that can't read complete sentences>not terrible depending on their background
>>2885501Spain is back to being Moorish.
>>2889172>weird larperWhat? Have you never seen a latam mugging? They happen in Latin America all the time, and in Spain too even if not as oftenEither way who the FUCK defends spics for no reason?
Stuck between booking Barcelona or looking at Portugal. Is it really that bad, even if we live outside the city, at a resort?
>>2885501i hope your fag dad gets mugged and raped by refugees
If you had a guaranteed retirement income of $9,000 a month for the rest of your life starting at age 55, where would you retire? Would you stay in one place, or move around? What countries are good for US expats?
>>2893179Where's hot weather and a beach, so South America or South East Asia like everyone else. Avoid Gayrope at all costs. Don't become the stereotypical white limp dick boomer to avoid trouble.
>>2893179if my dick still worked i'd move around, if not i'd buy a small house in europe. dont know what i'd need $9k for. seems way too excessive
>>2893180I like the beach, and I'd be up for impregnating 100's of local Asian girls in some place like Thailand, but I hate humidity and I don't want to live in some third world Asian shithole where it rains for 6 months out of the year and is 100 degrees for the other 6 months. I'd prefer to do some short trips to Asia instead since I would have some disposable income. I'm considering southern Spain for the first year. And then moving around to a few different countries if possible. I also really like the coast in Croatia.
Do European countries arrest foreign tourists for offensive social media posts? I am American, and as an American, we have free speech. I use my freedom of speech to say things on X, on an account that is not linked to my real name, that would be considered by some to be offensive. I say things that are anti-immigrant and occasionally racist. It's my right to feel that way and to say how I feel. However, I know that freedom of speech does not exist in Europe. I am planning a trip that starts in the Netherlands and ends in Germany before flying back. I have never been outside of America before. I am worried that they'll be able to detect my app on my phone, read my posts, and try to punish me for my posts.How do I avoid this? Should I never open X at all while I'm over there? Should I delete the app from my phone before I fly over? Are people in those countries allowed to use 4chan? I don't know how to navigate in a country without the first amendment. I don't plan to say anything offensive in public, I just want to have a good time.

Imagine you win a lottery with the following price: 6 weeks vacation in Greece for every year of your life until death, fully paid.The catch: You have to pick a single region and can only spend your vacation thereWhich region of Greece you choose for every future vacation?
>>2886565anon please don't get scammed into a timeshare
>>2886617I haven't been here long but I feel the exact opposite is true. Every thread on or about Greece I've seen has had a very vocal group/anon absolutely shitting on every aspect of the country. Lived in Greece from 2008-2010, +/-1 year in Athens and +/-1 year in Patra. Lived on 4 continents throughout my life and 7 countries, visited well over 30 including almost all of Europe. I honestly can't see what everyone's problem seems to be with Greece that can't be said about 200 other places people seem to have no problems with. It's a very beautiful country, prices are terrible nowadays but most of Europe is like that, you've always really had to go to the developing world to get good prices anyway. Countryside has spectacular views, great beaches, hot tourists, islands are nice although they do get boring, great archeological sites and lots of history tours. It's not "zomg the best", but it's fine. Definitely worth a vacation or 2, and 4 or more if you know where to go. >>2886565C, easy, know it well plus I'm going to abuse the crap out of: >fully paid.I'm going to do so much non-vacation shit.
>6 weeks vacationi can tell you've never left your bedroom
>>2886565Crete for sureIt's got all the best parts of Greece combinedWould miss my Mt Olympus hikes though
>>2892093>can't see what everyone's problem isIt's the Balkans, you learn real quick not to say anything good about neighboring countries because they all hate each other with gusto.It's the same online.
Looking for location recommendations for my first trip with my gfShe's going on a 3-week trip to Japan next year with friends, which is totally perfect for her as she's hyper organised and concerned about safety and cleanliness. Plus likes anime and Disney.I want to have a trip with her before, for her first ever international trip, but struggling to think of a better destination.>South Korea seems like a lesser version of Japan. >SEA countries are probably too chaotic and dirty for her, although the adventure could be fun. How's Thailand?>She also likes Paris, and it has a Disney World like Tokyo, but it's also dirty and Europe is expensive (we're in Australia). And we may go on a bigger Europe trip at some point.>Something tropical like Fiji or Hawaii might be romantic and safe, but also boring?>Said straight up no to Africa
>>2888098>Her friends were planning it already and she asked to tag alongafter or before getting into a relationship with you?>I haven't outright asked but I think she doesn't want to bother themmost people in relationships actually like their partner... and WANT to spend time with themso asking something this simple should not be a nuisance>when it wasn't her thing to begin with, if that makes sense?no.either they're renting out an apartment, in which case she shouldn't goor they all have their own (hotel) room, in which case you coming with them would be super easylast (optimistic) interpretation is that her friend group just doesn't like you and doesn't want you thereComment too long.

>>2888237>>2888237>after or before getting into a relationship with you?The trip was planned before, but she joined after our relationship I think it's been drilled into her that she should not be dependent on me, so she's always had a rich social lifeThey're renting an apartment. Is that too intimate?It's possible they don't like me, although only one has actually met meThanks, yeah I'll have to bring it up. Just don't want it to come iff as insecure. I genuinely am mostly worried about missing out on her first trip, and all the memories she'll be making with other people
>>2888237>>2888237The bull invited her only after she got into a relationship with me.She has a rich social life with many big buff studs.The bull is renting an apartment with her. Isn't that hot?It's possible all of them don't like me, but only the bull has met me.I'm worried to be called insecure, but I don't want her missing out on making memories. In bed. With other men.

Long story short I'm making about £500k a year from trading stocks and crypto in my late twenties, hoping to pack this in entirely in a few years because the stress is just off the charts. Only thing is I'm not sure wtf to do next. I am a medical doctor but don't practice anymore and can't think of anything I'm particularly passionate about.I do like travelling so was thinking of just doing this for a while but I feel like it could get boring or you might go nutty fairly quick. Plus of course this would be financially beneficial as would be easy to legally avoid capital gains tax, though I already live in a tax haven so legally don't pay any. I don't have any close family members so this is not a concern, although of course I will miss my friends. Is anyone here doing this?
>>2885870Im off and on neet and wage, periods of 2-4y normaly, Im in my late 30.I dont have yearly incone as you, but i have some properties and background income that lets me live happily and travel.I travel 3-4times a year, its not that i dont have cash for more, but my wife dont have enough time (she works normaly) and still, I find that travelling more is kindda to much if I dont want it to get slate.I dont know how much you are sincere because it lowkey sounds like you do brag a little bit, but travelling isnt a hobby in itself, well at least its not a "good hobby". You travel to expirience things, you probably want to have some direction/purpose, for example you want to expirience culture in some form. Traveling to some place just because you havent been there just because youre bored sounds like a waste of time and money.
Any tips for trading? Tech is probably the best right now(?) like AI related stuff but i am not sure. Where do you find out about the news for decision making? I save up around 1k€ per month
Trading and traveling to not mix well. You'll be stressed and internet is not guaranteed. Park ur money in some dividend stocks if ur going to travel.Otherwise, the best advice is to just go somewhere and wander around w/o expecting too much. Gems and hidden places tend to pop up when your expectations are low.
For the last 8 years I have been living between a converted van in the USA and a backpack internationally. In the last 2 years I have not even gone back to the USA but it only costs me $3/day to keep the van registered/insured and a cell phone plan. Not a NEET by definition since I am technically full-time employed remote, I work for about 4 hours a week and autohotkey does the other 36.It is a very weird existence I can't relate to 99% of people because I have no debt, burdens, responsibility or stress. Anyway, I saved 70-80% of my salary simply by not paying american rent and use that to sell .1-.3 delta 28dte CSPs. The generated premium has recently surpassed my salary and takes a few hours a month to stay on trend. So now I am not even worried about the job, but I'll continue doing the bare minimum to stay employed for healthcare. Every month I just have more and more money for doing basically nothing. Boomers are retarded to think they need millions to not work.
>I'm making about £500k a year from trading stocksif that was actually true you would have rented a rocket to go to the moon already
What's it like to visit/live in? I normally wouldn't consider doing any of those things, but a company in the metro wants to hire me and their price may be right.
>>2888209Better than Pittsburgh? Also how would you rank the cities in Ohio? You can keep it to Cincy, Columbus, and Cleveland if you want.
>>2886391I know im going to hell for this, but consult the racial dot map. Do not live or visit any of the African American plurality areas in yellow. Plenty of nice suburbs as you go farther east
>>2886391It's an hour from Cedar Point which is cool if you like coasters
>>2888210It pains me to say it, but Pittsburgh is probably a better place to live than Cleveland, if only for the topography. Hills beats flat any day. Of course that comes with its own problems, but worth it for me. So unless you are really going to take advantage of Lake Erie, I can't say Cleveland beats Pittsburgh.
>>2886391let me guess, it's the quitessential merican place
Family is planning a 4 day trip to Milan and Como Lake. What is there to do there? Not sure if i wanna tag along. From what i've seen and what we discussed boat rides interest me the most. Don't really care for cuisine and the architecture.

i'm going in September to visit my gf, any advice? how's the food?. Is it expensive?
>>2885786Oh the horror. I will definitely not go there to avoid temptation, thank you.
>>2883019If you’re not sex videocalling every night and draining her, it’s over.
Its a retarded shithole with Aspen prices
>>2886416>You can usually get a nice dinner for less than $20 USDLMFAO? What the fuck why would anyone go to a third world shithole with such insane prices? You can get a nice dinner for like 1/3 of that in Japan or for 1/2 of that in Italy.
>how's the food?why do retards always mention that. you can find good restaurants everywhere
>travel abroad>forgot deodorant>okay I'll pick some up at the 711>NOPE>okay I'll go to a health store>only see this >alright I guess that's what they use out here probably better than the american stuff>80F and doing a hike, absolutely not helping at all>spending 4-6 hours out and about seeing sites it gives up maybe 1-2 hours in>actual fucking dogshit that doesn't even workWhat the fuck is this shit? I even went to look at the most western stores/western isles of things. Does nowhere sell just good proper sticks of deodorant?
>>2888999They have a foreskin, the tip of their dick never touches the fabric of the pants.
>>2889007>They have a foreskinOnly in countries where abrahamic religions are the minority.
>>2889007lmao, you know, I wouldn't even be surprised if this is an actual thing and underwear actually is less common there for this reason. I know that's one reason why I won't go commando, I even thought about it when I realized I forgot to pack boxers.
I've been using this in Thailand, not this specific brand though. They sell these stones in the fresh market for around 30 baht or IDK maybe 75 cents. They work really good plus there's no strong deodorant smell.
>>2886738yeah, bring from home next time
How do you feel about VR travel videos? Does it compare to actual travel? Is it worth buying a VR headset just for this as opposed to spending way more on flights, hotels etc for a similar experience?
>>2886146Where do you even find VR travel videos? I only found a few free ones and some websites that sell them for a few hundred bucks each. I like the ones I found, but 8k resolution isn't enough for 360° videos imo. It's not as bad for 180° videos, but still not good enough for me. Unfortunately, camera equipment that can record 360° with more than 8k resolution barely exists. Or at least that was the case when I checked 2 years ago. The best one I found was 360° 12k and costs 17k€.
>>2886142>Does it compare to actual travel?Yes. It does. Now buy one and stay home.
>>2886146Shut the FUCK UP and STAY HOME.
>>2886142It's not the same obviously. I watched the Apple Immersive MLB show. Apple Immersive has some of the highest quality optics/video you can get in VR. Basically the quality is close to photorealistic, but since the crowds aren't actually there, the experience is like being in a ghost town that's crowded with ghosts.Then I watched the Slice of Life video for New York. But the guy who makes them is a little less experienced and some of the interactions he had with other people are awkward. Like he tells some girls that he's making a video for VR and they go like "...oh. bye VR!" in that "I just heard some incel shit" tone.
>Does it compare to actual travellollmao evenseeing a place without going was never a substitute of travelling
I got a HGH prescription in the US. I can't afford the fucking $3000/month for treatment. I can fly to Mexico and get an entire year's worth of meds for like 7 grand. Anyone ever done this shit? How do I do it and not end up getting thrown in jail, stabbed by a cartel, or scammed with fake bullshit from the clinic?
>>2885622Nobody is taking steroids intravenously. Steroids have a carrier oil, IV use doesn't work and can cause you to immediately die if the dose is high enough due to the oil.You have absolutely no fucking clue what you're talking about either; 99.99% of steroid use is low dose, consistent, and decades long with occasional high dose periods.Finally, Growth Hormone isn't something you take for acute benefits; you take it at a low but supraphysiological dose consistently for years and gain real benefits. Nobody goes to a clinic for a few weeks or month for HGH treatment, that's not how it works.I do agree that teenagers shouldn't be using steroids, but pretty much everything else you said is simply wrong. I've been on gear for a while now and if you keep the doses moderate your health improves. Just gotta keep lipids, BP, etc under control.

Which of the following seats would you pick? 2 pax, spouse and self.
>>2886943Post your Erewhon receipt.
As a solo traveler, I would pick any of the B's, D's, or F's. More specifically, I would pick 10D from your chart.Since you're traveling with a spouse, if you have to sit together, I would pick one of the following combinations:>10D & 10E>10E & 10F>11D & 11E>12B & 12D>12D & 12E>12E & 12FIf 25A is available, I would pick that if I'm wearing a Burger King crown.
>>2886925That's fine, I don't sleep on planes after my last incident where I woke up to a woman rubbing my knee.>also please hand me my bag from the overhead when it's time to deplaneNot my problem, you can do it yourself when you get up after i get off.
>>2887295>>10D & 10E>>10E & 10FThese two seat combinations are the only acceptable answers.
>>2886854none because no window, which is the only thing that matters of course
Hotels stopped automatically cleaning rooms because the pandemic let them pause daily service, and the industry kept the change because it saves money and they’re still short on staff — even though many guests say they do want daily cleaning back. Chains now frame reduced housekeeping as “guest preference” or “eco‑friendly,” but surveys show most travelers disagree and feel they’re paying more for fewer services. As a result, most hotels only clean every few days unless you request it.HOW TO MAKE SURE YOU GET HOUSEKEEPING SERVICES At check‑in:“Can you please schedule daily housekeeping for my room? I prefer full service each day.”On the phone:“Hi, I’m in room ___ and I’d like housekeeping today. Could you add me to the list?”If they say they only clean every 3 days:“I understand the policy — but I’d like to opt in for daily service. Is that possible
>>2887313Even if you do you use the stick and scrub it, you don't call someone in to look at your Poo. Weirdly though the place I stayed in last month didn't have a Brush. First place I've been to in my life to not have one. So I had no choice. How embarrassing
>>2887316Why do you go out with WoW women? Kek. The bints I've been with are immaculate
>>2887352Fridge, sink, and microwave. ESSENTIAL. I can never go back, I don't know how I ever stayed in places without either
>>2887391I would never ever ever ever ever use a Hotel towel. Imagine using a used towel, and not just someone's one towel but a World communal tower kek, the idea just blows my mind. It sounds like something Archaic you read in a Horrible histories book. But it's the first world today
