>>2879013>Once you start understanding/learning some Japanese99% of DJT retards never do.That's why they don't understand what you're talking about.They're also just desperate for Japanese pussy so they'll put up with anything.
>>2879013>Not induling in your sexpat ""conquest"" fantasy involving mentally ill prostitutes is a melty.You're not impressing anyone on an anonymous image board, especially in a country where you can order highly skilled sexual service providers to your bed easier than lunch through uber eats.If you were a casanova you'd probably have more fun and success at a happening bar instead of being shocked that women wearing the official, universally recognized uniform of a BPD schizophrenic prostitute acting the part.
>>2876047I just got back from an 8-night stay in Tokyo. It was magical. My first time over from the States. I knew zero Japanese, and I had practically no itinerary.I used Bumble to meet up with five different Japanese women. They showed me around the city. I kissed all five, had sex with three. I enjoyed great food and sights. My hotel in Shibuya was really nice.I’d like to go back and see Osaka and Kyoto. I could have gone on a date with a new woman every single night if I wanted to, but I wanted to actually enjoy different things in the city and I can only get off so much in my 30s.Everyone was super polite, considerate, and accommodating. I appreciated it as I’m probably too polite back home, but it was normal here. I didn’t visit any weeb shit. No Akihabara in my trip.
>>2879324This is viral marketing.
>>2879333I wish I got paid for it, but what I posted isn’t going to be believed by people on here anyway.That’s why it’s true. It’s not repeatable by everyone, however.
Bought a ticket to Valencia, Spain for three weeks in June. I have been there one other time 10 years ago but I was in Basque country. I am going alone and it's my first time travelling alone. My plan is to visit 3 different small coastal towns and just hang out for 1 week each and to just hang out at the beach, walk around, read, do a bit of work (research), and eat good food. I have no desire for partying or doing dumb touristy shit. I'm pretty autistic and don't drink so meeting people is probably not going to happen.What should I expect?
>>2872270I wouldn't recommend going to the beach alone if you like to swim, because you might get robbed when you're swimming. Sorry mate.
>>2876187Even if I just bring a towel and a book? I'm staying close to the beach in my airbnbs so won't bring any valuables except a few euros for a drink or something.
>>2876366Brownoids can't read, your book will be safe. Don't bring a fancy towel, they might want to keep it.
>>2876366Then obviously not, but don't bring them in a wallet, that's what I mean.
>>2873763>figuring out how to live alone in a strange placeNigga do you think Europe does not have grocery stores and Uber and Google maps and everything else you could possibly need to function? It's not like OP is going to Mongolia where you have to wipe your ass with a rock and sleep in a yurt.

>>2877892I had completely forgotten about bumper boats! I used to ride them all the time growing up at my local park. They got taken out a LONG time ago. Did it have to do with accidental drownings or something? Ours were actually set up in a real lake next to an alligator exhibit (separated only by a hidden net underneath a boardwalk) so it created the illusion of the boats operating in alligator infested waters as you couldn’t tell the alligators couldn’t swim where the bumper boats were
>>2879264>>2879265The destiny of these three chains is all intertwined because of SeaWorld Ohio. Seriously though, it's not what either chain needs, however, SF and CF also shouldn't have merged. SW/United is more like SF than Disney except for Discovery Cove and some aspects of SWO. In some areas they're even worse. Food quality is worse, food and drinks and merch cost more, operations suck, they sell quick queue but rarely station somebody for it. Service fees. Etc.
>>2879298I can at least see the end result of SF/CF. I don’t know if that was their intention all along but I see it. After the final loadoff of parks they are going to end up with the top seasonal parks and the ones with greatest growth potential that can lead to increased profits after investment, meanwhile they are working to get quality of operations maintenance, better food quality and park upkeep going at the remaining parks (the Six Flags parks they want to keep especially) and using the rest (and their former operating costs) to pay off the debt. If you see it as a play for Cedar Fair to get the biggest Six Flags parks and then pay off the debt it is logicalUnited Parks merging with them and dealing with their private equity owners is the worse thing they could do and also against what they are trying to do with their chain. We are right back at the too many mouths to feed and too much debt issue. They will really decline if the resources now have to go to these Seaworld parks too

I don't see a lot of threads about south America, Africa on /trv/.Brazil dominates the continent, is it geographically isolated or can you go through Brazil in transit back and forth? Does anyone transit Guyana through the Brazil land border? How far can you actually get up the Amazon and is that a viable route?When it's the tourist season, which places to normie Americans ruin?How's the place doing currency wise, is Venezuela back on the itinerary?

What are the best cities in China to visit? where can i find cheap apartments? what are Chinese women like? is it true that they have their own internet living in a world separate from ours? is it easy to learn the language? is it difficult to live there?
>>2873895>Best cities in China to visitBeijing, Xi'an, Nanjing, Hangzhou, Chongqing, Kunming>cheap apartmentsany small city or far out from the city centre. As a foreigner you can't own property, you will have to rent or partner with a local to buy it. Also good luck staying there.>what are Chinese women like95% of them are incredibly vapid and boring but you can probably fuck them with ease>their own internet separate from oursyes but everything filters over there eventually>easy to learn the languagenot very easy but also not super hard once you learn how to learn it, if that makes sense>is it difficult to live thereif you don't speak Chinese: yesif you do speak Chinese: not very difficult
>>2873932Theres entire cat torture rings based out of china doing just that. Sadly china has really taken over discourse on here so their reputation is WAY better than it should be.
>>2873895Beijing, Chongqing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou. Beijing is a must for first timers. Though not mainland, avoid Hong Kong. Too much like New York

What's a good 'out of the way' city or country to visit or is on your bucket list as a rare gem to go to? Bonus points if you've actually gone there.Example, I've always wanted to visit the Russian city of Yekaterinburg to go to the point where Europe meets Asia. Not sure if I can get there now though :(
>>2876212Never heard of that, will definitely look into that, thanks>>2876239I know you can
>>2876212>up there with VeniceExcept it's not the seat of a trading empire that was once fabulously wealthy...it's merely a random dusty town with a fort, marooned on a vast plain of hideous desolation (thanks to centuries of overgrazing). BTW India has hundreds of spectacular forts, many of them in amazing natural settings. This is only one of them.
>>2876189>I've always wanted to visit the Russian city of Yekaterinburg to go to the point where Europe meets AsiaI was there several years ago during covid, although I didn't visit the "Europe meets Asia" stele (it's outside the city and probably not worth visiting). If you really want, you can see a similar one in Uralsk (Kazakhstan).
>>2876191Appalachian here. Don't. It's a shithole. I don't mean this in the fuck off we're full sense, I'm completely serious. There's beautiful scenery, sure. But the people are the scum of the fucking earth. They will steal anything not nailed down to fuel meth and heroin addictions, and the ones who aren't drug addicts are the kind of rednecks that are the reasons for all the worst redneck stereotypes. Don't do it.
>>2876717people visit all sorts of dangerous and unsafe countriesappalachia is much safer than the average diverse large american city
I'm an American and I work for a small American company. My job is totally remote. I can work from anywhere for the most part, so I'm thinking about working remotely in Europe. However, I can only go to Europe for one to two months at a time, so it doesn't make sense for me to go through a whole visa process. Technically, you're supposed to either not work while you're visiting as a tourist or your supposed to get whatever visa is required to work remotely in that particular country, a nomad visa. But like I said, I don't want to do that. Has anyone tried working remote in Europe (especially Switzerland) for an extended length of time? Did you have any problems with the authorities? Am I over thinking this?

Simply don't tell people you're doing it and no one will care, laws have changed but specifically in europe some are okay with it so long as you aren't actively competing against local businesses.

When I was a kid all I dreamed about was traveling. Then after a while of doing it I felt like I was just doing it as a hobby and it wasn't anything special. But now I've come to realize it does make me more well-rounded, packs so many amazing stories into one day of travel compared to weeks of normal life. I learn things about myself and others and I have endless things to talk about with people. I also get along great with people from obscure countries I travelled to because they're happy somebody knows so much about their country.
Only my travel dreams are exciting. The world's landscape is completely different from real life. There's all kinds of characters who are part of my life. Sometimes very unpleasant characters though. Last night some fat, sleazy Italian restaurant owner in an unknown Third World country - North Africa or Sicily or some place like that - tried to overcharge me something like 20 USD for a shitty little piece of lasagna, then had his assistants chase me down when I ran away in a panic feeling something was very wrong. I returned unwillingly with them, but he had drugged me and before I knew it I was in the back of the restaurant on a sofa, and my pants were gone. I ALT+F4'd that dream in a hurry before it got worse.
>>2874863Only real travel makes you interesting. You're probably a redditor that is psyched because his instagram post of the eiffel tower got a few likes.
>>2874878I don't have any social media at all besides whatsapp for necessity and I have the same pfp from 10 years ago
i like to go to a new city, check out grocery store, take a two hour walk. then spend the rest of the time in hotel bed fapping to computer porn
>>2874863Living in different places / meeting different sorts of people / doing cool stuff makes you interesting.Travel can fall under cool stuff, for sure. Can even meet people.But just going on vacation, like to some beach resort, does not make you interesting. In fact, that makes you boring af if it's the only time you've gone anywhere.
I am going to Istanbul for a week. Any tips on what to do or see?
>>2876600I just went into any random restaurant that had shisha when I was hungry lol. Lahmacun (Turkish pizza), pide, börek and kebab (the real kebab, with meat on sticks) are all very tasty and available everywhere. There's a street vendor every 10 meters selling simit, a type of bread. It's very cheap, but kinda dry. Seafood is abundant, but I don't really like seafood, so you'll have to figure that one out on your own I'm afraid. Turkish cuisine is overall really fucking tasty, I can't really say I ate something that I wouldn't recommend. Just be wary of empty restaurants with very pushy vendors trying to get you to eat at their place.
I'm thinking of lying about being Muslim to get into the Hagia Sophia for free. How can I achieve this? How do they test you?
>>2876606thats Johnny Somali mindset, dont do it
>>2876587Not with that attitude
I visited recently, tomtom kebap is super good for dinner near istikal street and sinop manti is pretty yummy if you find yourself in the asian side! Public transport is great and the people are friendly just near hagia sofia there's lots of annoying tour guide people trying to sell you things.The ferry across the strait is great on a sunny day to see the city and also Topkapi is incredible.
According to ChatGPT the most beautiful / must see cities in America are>New YorkI already saw it and I loved it. The city is beautiful and very impressive. As a French, it's mind blowing to see this forest of tall skyscrapers. I think it was my favorite journey after Egypt.>San Francisco>New Orleans>Chicago>Miami>Seattle>Boston>Las Vegas>CharlestonFor my next journey, I hesitate between New Orleans, Miami and San Francisco
>>2876296New Orleans is beautiful, but it's also one of the most dangerous shitholes in the country, especially because the pattern of development means you can get into rough areas quickly. There's a reason there's an informal rule of "Don't go past the gay pride flag on Bourbon"

Boston, Chicago, or DC should be your next city.
>>2876296I've been to all of the cities on your list, but I guess I'll just highlight the two I lived in for multiple years>BostonIt is beautiful, but incredibly expensive. There really is not a whole lot to do unless you want to walk through college campuses and see some museums. The best in my opinion is the Harvard Museum (the one with the glass roses and the animal bones), as well as the MIT Museum. I'd say that the best thing you can do in Boston is rent a car and drive up to Salem, walk around, then go up to Vermont (Stowe is beautiful, or the town with the Ben & Jerry's factory), or drive along the Maine Coast up to Bar Harbor. Alternatively drive down to Cape Cod, and from the Cape take a boat to Nantucket (or even better) Martha's Vineyard. That is pico New England, where there is wealth, class, and it is just honestly beautiful. Get a lobster roll, and see more of it. Boston has been going downhill IMO, especially with the legalization of weed and increase in violent niggers in East Boston. Everytime I go to the Common all I can smell is weed, but I also find it easy to see the negatives sometimes (everyone does I think when you live somewhere for so long). China Town is really cool and there is a great soup dumpling place. I would highly recommend Boston and driving to the Cape, or to Vermont, or along the Maine Coast.>New OrleansLived in New Orleans for a few years. It is a shithole. I went all around the city for work, and it just is not nice. The most beautiful parts of the city are Uptown / the Garden District and then City Park. East of Bourbon Street the chance of getting robbed/raped increases with n^ likelihood. The DA (head Parish prosecutor) recently got carjacked while visiting his elderly mother. It is a truly black city, which is to say it is corrupt, at any point in time there is at least one fire hydrant broken and flooding a major street. The infrastructure is terrible, there was at least one boil water advisory a month. 1/2
>>2876638And not the mention every single road feels like you are on a rollercoaster. If something were to happen the police will not help you. I worked EMS and we had people who died on the wall of the hospital because it was understaffed, and the staff who did show up to work were retarded niggers. The white people in that city are trash, in all honesty. It is a beautiful city in some regards, but it far more akin to something you'd find in Africa or the shittier parts of the Carribean than America. Bourbon Street is just tacky.>butIt is important to note this is all after Katrina, where pretty much everyone good left the city, and all the FEMA immigrants looking for handouts came in. In the US they just give you money if you move to a disaster zone because the people in charge of disbursing funds are corrupt and retarded, so you have like refugees coming in after for government handouts to repopulate the city. Katrina still dominates the culture, and anyone over 30 will mention it at least once in your conversation. Many traditional establishments are still shuttered as a result of this, the West Bank is ruined, and the city just has not recovered. If you do go, walk through the graveyards in Uptown or the Garden District, see the WWII museum. Tulane's campus is pretty and the women are easy. You can rent a car and go down to Venice or Lafitte if you want to see the small inbred Mississippi communities that fish and have fucked eachother for generations. Just be safe, and understand you are paying more for a city that is used by boomers to reclaim memories of their youth when they were a different person, and New Orleans was a different city.
