Any based /trv experiences from dangerous countries like Iran, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Afghanistan?
All jokes aside, Mexico is more dangerous than every place on that list. Memphis, Baltimore, St Louis and Detroit have a higher murder rate than any city in any of the countries on your list too.
>>2840692The only remotely dangerous place on that list is Syria because of the war. Iraq, Iran, Lebanon and Afghanistan are safe
>>2840802How is Afghanistan safe? Maybe I won't get bombed, but I might get questioned and beheaded by taliban if I do anything remotely they don't like. Sounds about as safe as Russia right now.Also men aren't the only ones who travel
I have walked around Munich & London OP. Feel free to ask me any questions you have
>>2840744Murder/crime is severely under-reported in thirdie shitholes. Claiming they are safe because of statistics is very low iq.
>>2840802>High risk of getting arrested by the regime so they can maybe eventually trade you against some random terrorist >SafeIraq and Iran are at the top of my wishlist but I'd literally rather go to Syria right now. Lebanon should be somewhat alright, I guess.
>>2840802>Iraq, Iran, Lebanon and Afghanistan are safeThis has got to be baitDO NOT GO TO THE MIDDLE EAST UNLESS YOU ARE SUICIDALEspecially for women it's a no-go
>>2840829I don't think anyone is claiming they are safe. They're just saying that Mexico and US have cities with higher murder rates.
>>2840865There is a person literally below the post he was replying to that says they are safe >>2840802
The most dangerous place I visited was Guatemala. Almost got my rental van stolen, and got a shotgun pulled on me. It was a good time.
>>2840692i worked in beirut for a bit, a few years ago. it seemed pretty ok and safe to me, around the main parts of the city anywayof course i wouldn't want to go to the bits that are more full of looniesthere were memos from the civil war everywhere. buildings still full of bullet holes. the famous holiday inn. instead of traffic cones they use repainted tank traps. that sort of thinggreat food too. lebanon and israel have had some of the best food ever. i love that mediterranean stuffthis was before that massive explosion destroyed a large part of the city. i understand things are different now
No joke, genuinely feared for my life when I was in Trenton, NJ. And this was in the good part right next to the capitol.
>>2840692I've been to 3/5 of those countries. There is nothing in any of them worth actually going to or seeing, unless you're a huge fan of ancient civilizations (Syria/Iraq).
>>2840826>I might get questioned and beheaded by taliban if I do anything remotely they don't like. Sounds about as safe as Russia right now!kek, look at this Silly Sally
afghanistan is bizare and otherworldly. spent 12+ months there for various reasons since the tali came back, all around the country. bizare perhaps because just walking around helmand and kandahar was something i never thought i'd get to do. they assigned me a young talib as a minder for my travels in the south, he was pointing out to me all the spots he would shoot at british forces from as we drove around helmand. lots of good archaeological stuff in the south, and bamiyan is great too. taliban are mostly chill but also retarded, and getting anything done in afghanistan is impossible work-wise. the leader of AQ got drone struck by the U.S. about a km from me in 2022, i heard it early in the morning. the occasional gunshot/blast at night in kabul, but not too regular. i walk for hours in the day with no issues.spent 6 weeks in iraq in 2023, drove in through kuwait. loved it. baghdad is great if you like sufi stuff and islamic history, otherwise it's a big with some suprisingly modern and upscale areas. the two shrine cities were worthwhile also. i spent 4-5 days in mosul, which was maybe the craziest place i've ever seen, since more than half of it was still totally destroyed by ISIS. rubble everywhere. went to a church being rebuilt by UNESCO, still had ISIS grafiti on the walls. met a guy who's house had been taken over by them, and he said they cut his dad's thumb off for using a mobile phone. kurdistan is nice and feels like a different countyr (erbil and duhok).
Iran is not dangerous at all, what are you talking about?
>>2840692Central Beirut at least is pretty safe. Can't speak for the rest of Lebanon or any of the other countries.
been thinking of visiting Syria independently (this is allowed now)has anybody here been to Syria since the war ended (or while it was underway)?
>>2840884>Almost got my rental van stolen, and got a shotgun pulled on me. It was a good time.I totally believe this happened bro
>>2840826>How is Afghanistan safe?I was there a few months ago. Dont talk about that place if all you know is lies and propaganda from TV. >Also menWhat the fuck is a woman? And no, dont give me XX chromosomes or that its a "feeling/choice". Neither of those are applicable outside of huemans. Arbitrary bullshit answers are given to game the system, what majority of women do. Scam. Lie. Cheat.The most fundemental quality of a woman isnt reproductove strategy....its being morally infirm. Thats true Matriarchy. Criminals are given carte blanche to do as theycl choose..........now you know why leftists like crime. Thats what they see a woman as. A criminal.
>>2840826Oh, and I met with an interior ministery who was referred to as "His Excellency,". Ive killed dozens of Taliban. This isnt a fucking game...
>>2840826Oh, and PPS: Afghanistan is a feminist shithole.Hark, such sweet naivety!
>Show compassion for manThats not whats happening here...this is peak feminism. Literally.
>>2840692Those aren't exactly "dangerous" countries you picked for your list Anon. Iran is perfectly stable and safe. Lebanon is safe everywhere except Southern Beirut and the border with Israel. The wars in Iraq, Syria and Aghanistan are over and there are travel vlogs all over Youtube of people going there. Practically all of Africa and most of Latin America is worse off than the Middle East these days. To answer your question, I lived a year in Lebanon a while back. It's a shithole, but it wasn't dangeorus.
>>2847324>Iran is perfectly stable and safeIts stable and safe until the Amerijew glowie alliance decides to nuke it you mean
>>2847474And that's happening any time soon you think? They literally attacked Israel and it didn't devolve into a war. Even Americans aren't stupid enough to go to war with Iran.
Haven't been but I know Papua New Guinea is legitimately unsafe for foreignerst. know people whom have worked there and they conveyed stories
>>2840692I ve been to Lebanon. It wasn't getting bombed at that point in time, but the possibility was there. >The isis thing was still going next door so a couple of the roman ruins near the borders were kinda off limits. >Went to Tyr near the israel border and got stopped by a couple of Hezbollah blocks and a UN one but nothing happened. >Saw a tone of building with bullet holes from the previous war>Still had fun
>>2847505Would you be kind to elaborate more on that country?
Colombia should be most dangerous to /trv/ posters since several sex tourists have been murdered and robbed in Columbia, despite being US tourists.>U.S. Embassy Bogota is aware of eight suspicious deaths of private U.S. citizens in Medellin between November 1 and December 31, 2023. The deaths appear to involve either involuntary drugging overdose or are suspected homicides. At this time, it is not believed these deaths are linked as each involved distinct circumstances, however several of the deaths point to possible drugging, robbery, and overdose, and several involve the use of online dating applications.>According to the Tourism Observatory of the District Personnel of Medellin, the number of thefts committed against foreign visitors (excluding Venezuelans) increased 200 percent in the third trimester of 2023 compared to the previous year and violent deaths of foreign visitors increased 29 percent. Most of the 2023 violent death victims were U.S. citizens.>Criminals use dating apps to lure victims to meet in public places such as hotels, restaurants, and bars, and then later assault and rob them. Numerous U.S. citizens in Colombia have been drugged, robbed, and even killed by their Colombian dates.https://co.usembassy.gov/security-alert-risks-of-using-online-dating-applications/
>>2840744I'd be more inclined to try hitchhiking on any of those countries than in Mexico yeat. mexican
So many in fact that nobody in the post 2000 Eceleb era would even believe me. These days it's like it you don't have the social media clout you are unworthy, unqualified, couldn't have done it The world used to be so much bigger, there was so much more freedom and I fear the kids will never have those opportunities.
>>2852331For example?
