I really want to experience more cultural sites rather than party sites so I'm planning on Paris and maybe Berlin next.
Making central asia my focus over the next 5-10 years
>>2884393I'd love to do Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. I've been to KG twice for over 1.5 months in total it's amazing
>>2884404
>>2884393>Australian been to more of Europe than me (I'm Slovakian) I'm too poor!!!!!
>>2884404Thank you for visiting my country <3 I hope you will come back soon!!!!!!
Currently working my way across Nepal at a snail's pace. Next up, more provinces of Thailand, or else Cambodia.
>>2884404KG is ace. I've only been there for a ~week and a half as part of a Central Asia trip but damn, I'm ready to come back any time. Amazing hikes.
What I'm most curious about from every map:>>2884387Is Bali worth going to?>>2884393What are Faroes like? I really really would love to go and rent a car there. Seems kino>>2884404Was going to ask about Bangladesh but then I saw Bermuda... what's Bermuda like>>2884405What's Missisippi like?>>2884413Is Uttarakhand comfy? is it like a less touristy Himachal pradesh?
Just came back from my first ever trip to China and all I can say is I'd go back there tomorrow if I couldPalestine is next, then Scotland for a work trip>Late 20s poorfag here
>>2884437Why haven't you been to San Marino? It's so close.
>>2884440Good question lmaoIt may be close, but it's not easy to reach. It's high up in the mountains and it can only be reached either by car or by bus from one specific city. Plus accommodation is quite expensive and I don't know anyone who lives in the area. There's not even anything interesting to see that couldn't be seen in any nice random italian old town, just with the added novelty of it being a sovereign state. I'll definitely go there one day, but still haven't found a good reason to do so yet
>>2884424I love KG so much. The nature is amazing and the hospitality is the best I've ever experienced. The people are so friendly and open.>>2884435Bermuda is comfy. It's a cool mix of African, British, and American (due to proximity) culture. It's really easy to see the whole island in a couple days. Some people just stay on resorts but it's totally worth a visit going around visiting the little towns and hamlets. I'm not much of a beach guy but I really loved Bermuda (been twice). It makes me want to explore more Caribbean islands. >What's Missisippi like?Amazing. I spent most of my time there in the Delta and wow it's like you're going back in time. Poorest and blackest part of the USA yet they welcomed me with open arms. Funnily enough I saw some Euro tourists but basically no Americans because of the horrible reputation the delta has. I had some amazing experiences just staying with locals in these bumfuck towns, playing pool, and eating soul food. It was awesome. >>2884437How was Chengdu? I'm about to go to China again when I leave Bangladesh and I only have 10 days since I'm an Amerifag. I'm doing Chongqing and planning to do Zunyi after but I'm wondering if I should do Chongqing, Chengdu, and Zunyi. How many days do you think are good for Chongqing? (I'm assuming you saw Chengdu and Chongqing based on your map)
>>2884443Also... how did you end up in WV as your only state? That's pretty amazing lol I love WV but it's not usually attracting foreign tourists
>>2884435Uttarakhand is chock full of Hindu spiritual tourists, including thousands of pilgrims who walk vast distances for various pilgrimage events. Yes, there are still parts of the state which are sleepy and rural, including vast areas of backcountry villages far from the principal highways that offer zero visitor services. Uttarakhand as a whole is a lot busier and more bustling than neighboring Sudarpaschim province in Nepal. The Kedernath/Badrinath area is one of the top mountain destinations in India.
>>2884495We did visit both Chengdu and Chongqing. Chengdu is really fun, especially if you like chinese history there's plenty of it there. Visiting a panda park is a must, there's a bunch of them, just pick the one you like the most (we went to the one in Dujiangyan and had a great time, most people go to the big one in Chengdu city (Wuhou shrine being important for its connection with the Three Kingdoms period for example). There's also Leshan, Emeishan and Dujiangyan/Mt. Qingcheng nearby, all of which are easy day trips via the HS railway. For Chongqing, it honestly depends. The highlights of the city itself can be seen in maybe 2 days, 3 if you want to take it slow and really soak in the atmosphere. But while you're in Chongqing you really really should also go to Wulong and Dazu. Especially Wulong. If you're in Chongqing and don't take the HS railway to go to Wulong you're genuinely missing out. Seriously, go to Wulong>>2884500I actually also went to DC in the same trip, my first and so far only one in the US. It was a work trip. I work a job which sometimes requires me to go to very specific and occasionally rather obscure places.
>>2884387Japan in September.Cruise next year.Need to figure out which US state to see next.
>>2884387I live more than I travel
>>2884620cringe
>>2884629Fag
>>2884639Enjoy your Carnival cruise, Louisiana Nigger.
>>2884435Faroes was amazing, I have actually been twice. First time I explored the whole island in a rented car and just camped all the campsites in a tent to save money on accom. Nearly every island. Second time I got into a program to repair the hiking trails for free accommodation. It is fucking beautiful and you can't take a bad photo of literally anywhere on the island.But it is super windy, out of like 17 days total I spent there I only got like 3 days rain which is pretty decent desu.>What are Faroes like? I really really would love to go and rent a car there. Seems kinogo, it is one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited, expensive but definitely worth it. Take the ferry on the way there from Scotland, I stayed in the dorms and had a whole level of the boat to myself as everyone is in a car or an old person staying in the private rooms, was kind of eerie
Virtually everything done by bicycle. Trying to complete all of Europe.
>>2884758Dude, respect. That is some serious distance
>>2884437How is West Virginia the only place in North America you've been? They don't even have an international airport. Why go there?
>>2885213I also went to DC in the same trip. See my previous post >>2884527
This year I visited parts of the Middle East and Southern Africa. I was going to follow up with a few more places in Asia like Sri Lanka, Myanmar, and Laos but I got burned out after too much traveling.Highlights of this trip:* visited Libya and Egypt* "reverted" to Islam just to visit Masjid al-Haram in Makkah & Al Masjid-e-Nabawi in Medina. I genuinely reverted. I spent hours memorizing the lore and practicing the prayers. It was a really unique experience.* tactically visiting Zambia, Botswana, Namibia, and Zimbabwe in just two days since they are all next to each other.* went on a safari in Botswana and Kenya. Luckily saw all of the big five game animals (lion, leopard, rhinoceros, elephant, and african buffalo).No more traveling for a while, flight prices are still inflated cuz of the war. There are fewer flights and I don't want to pay a 50% premium. I might visit south america this winter with my friend to check off a few places but other than that, nothing planned.
>>2885641Don't go to Burma it supports the regime.
>>2884387Just got back from a Caucasus trip, a place I def want to go back to.
>>2884387Went to Berlin to explore German (specifically Prussian) culture. Found it uninteresting, like Americas most built relatively recent, little history pre-1800s. Berlin Wall only metal poles now, free museum uninteresting. Checkpoint Charlie boring. Nightlife looked fun. Lots of drug addicts and alcoholics, comparable to NYC with less hustle (still people try to proposition you, not aggressive in my experience). Book Reichstag in advance, easy. Paris very good, can spend days in Louvre. City fun. You seem like you enjoy fun. Do you have a GF? Your map reads like someone who's girlfriend is 'adventurous' and takes him places.>>2884393Cool. Why no France? Why no Thailand? Oy oy slip a shrimp on the barbie.>>2884405Do they have Microsoft Windows in Nebraska?>>2884424Does Lithuania vary much throughout or is every town basically Wilna on a smaller scale? Is the countryside accessible?>>2885641You visited Ethiopia w/o Visa? *claps cheeks shocked* OMG!
>>2884387what are you guys using to generate this map?
>>2886164There was a thread a while ago that included a blank template. You can just fill it in with ms paintAlternatively, you can just use this website which is basically the same https://splored.com/create
>>2886167can someone post the template again?
>>2886169Definitely not the most up to date but not old, is the map autist on hiatus?
>>2886169Here's an extended legend with want to go
>>2886169And I also added a layover option
>>2886169A template for any Americans pre-filled in to get them started
And my own map. Looking forward to a work trip back south and going to see my great grandfather's farm in Norway. Does anyone else show this map to friends and fill their map out with them irl? It's pretty fun and you end up talking all about their travels together.
Japan 5 times so far, 19 prefectures hit, many more to go.France twice.Austria and Taiwan once.I just like Japan too much and keep going there instead of other places. Would like to hit up Italy, Germany, Korea, Taiwan again and plenty of others.
>>2886169Use this link. It's easier.https://splored.com/create
>>2886410We have lived in the same US states
>>2886113Just never got around to France during my EU travels as I have heard very mixed things. I am not that interested tbqh, I am sure there are nice parts. And for Thailand I just haven't made it there yet but I am sure I will eventually
>>2886421Japan is just the best. I do want to visit more rough and tumble places though. Maybe Southeast Asia with a Japanese bookend next.
Back from Taiwan with a side trip to Japan
>>2886113>Went to Berlin to explore German while Berlin in itself is a cool city to visit for a weekendit's also one of the shittiest places for pre WW2 German culture & history>(specifically Prussian) culture.KEKthere are some places like Zitadelle Spandau, Charlottenburg, and of course Unter den Linden / Brandenburger Torbut otherwise Berlin is pretty disappointing in that regardshould've left Berlinliterally just an S-Bahn ride away>Potsdam is awesome for Prussian stuff>Schloss Rheinsbergis nearby and the predecessor of Sanssouci>Brandenburg an der Havelis also extremely coolgenerally the region>Mark Brandenburgis the origin of Prussian cultureso that should've been your target
>>2884393Shame you couldn't make it to Çabër
Just left Australia for the first time about 18 months ago.Considering perhaps Indonesia (Java, Borneo, etc.) for my next trip or maybe China. In a year or 2 I plan to do a decent trip around Europe in summer, but can only really do decent travel in northern hemisphere winter atm.
>>2887851Are you Indian by any chance?
>>2887851Nah, I'm an Anglo-Germanic white with blue eyes. Closest thing to Indian in me is that my great, great, great, great grandfather was born in a musician's family in Mulhouse (France), had a professional musical career in Britain and ended up organising operas in Mumbai for the Brits in the 1840s. His children all returned to Britain after he died before my g.g.g. grandfather shipped out for Australia shortly after that.
>>2888052>Closest thing to Indian in me is that my great, great, great, great grandfather was born in a musician's familyWow he sounds Brahmin. Maybe descendent of Krishna
Just got back from the living in the Philippines for a few months in May. I have a work opportunity that'll place me in Bucharest for July and then Bratislava in August. After that I plan to go back out to Asia. I'd like to hit up Singapore and Malaysia and also hopefully Cambodia/Laos since I missed out when I had the chance last time when I was in Vietnam. I don't see myself doing too much travelling when I'm in Europe, though if anything I'll probably check out Budapest and Vienna as well. Exciting year for me! Any recommendations for Bucharest?
>>2888185>Any recommendations for BucharestDon't go there
>>2888185You do realize there's a separate color for regions visited in home country, right?
>>2888188I'm only there for a little over 3 weeks so hopefully it's not as bad as you're making it out to be.>>2888200First time noticing that
Was able to recently add Louisiana for New Orleans with my wife which was a great time. Was going to Spain for the solar eclipse this year but that's been pushed to next year for the bigger Solar Eclipse over the straight of Gibraltar. I'm kinda depressed though and between that and just being really weathered has dampened my desire to travel. I just want to be left alone for a weekend and that's where renting a cabin in Vermont where I don't really do anything but maybe hike or write might happen given it's a quick drive.
>>2884405How did Utah compare to Texas?
>>2884424Polska Gurom! I loved visiting Poland last summer
>>2884437I’m an early 20s poorfag, you got a respectable amount of travel so far. How did you like Romania?
>>2884758>Only visiting Northwest RussiaBased Novgorodmaxxer
>>2886410>going to see my great grandfather's farm in Norway.Holy shit that’s cool, you got Norwegian ancestry too? I have relatives up in Norway that my Mom visited 7 years ago. A whole farm and everything
Present /trv/ goals. I’m hoping to do a trip to Sapporo this fall then that’ll be it for a bit at least for international travel due to fuel prices. I’m open to SEA at some point if there’s places with good nature, decent English, and cool historical or /k/ related stuff. Not a fan of partying though. I’ve heard from my Mom that Budapest is better than Warsaw, any thoughts?
>>2884387>Shagaluf>Weedsterdam>Trannyland>BaliHoly lad...
>>2888361>Novgorod mentionedAre you a fellow grand strategy chad?
>>2888403Im bad at video games, I just know a bit about Eastern Euro history
>>2888207Bucharest is an ok city with decent nightlife. If you have the chance you should explore Romania, especially the rural parts. It's such a weird, unique country. One of the last places in Europe that truly feels wild at times. Bulgaria also has many great spots but at times it feels like everything you can see in Bulgaria is just the slightly worse analogue of something you can also see in the western Balkans. Romania is much more unique
Did Vietnam, Singapore, and Hong Kong in Feb/March. Will go back to Montreal in September for a long weekend. Then Greece for 3 weeks with my parents next June for our first family trip in like a decade. My work fucks me on the remote work stuff - we have a "work from anywhere" policy, but they require that you have the legal right to work in your destination country. We get 4 weeks to work abroad, so getting a whole ass digital nomad visa to do that is a pain in the ass. I think the UK may be the most practical acceptable option, but more expensive than other destinations. I want to do North Africa, mainland China, the Philippines, Chile, plus some others.
Greetings from Africa
