Finished bachelors and got 4k as a gift from my parents.
21 years old planning to use the money for a november trip in Southeast Asia.
Went to Japan last year and had a fun time. It was actually pretty easy to pick up girls
Taiwan is on my list but people have said it's boring and the girls are skittish
Thailand seemed cool to party at and meet girls, but from research i only see trashy euros chasing prostitutes that are 30 plus
Cambodia and Philippines look like third world countries. I'd rather travel smoothly
Malaysia and Indonesia seem too muslim to have fun
>>
>>2895611
what about vietnam? or myanmar
>>
Kazakhstan is very nice!
>>
>>2895611
Bangladesh is the hot new destination
>>
>>2895611
The younger you are when you visit thailand the better. And cambodia isn't a shithole, it just isn't as good as thailand.

>>2895651
>Myanmar
Disregard this idiot, Burma is in a civil war currently.
>>
>>2895652
not sure if Borat joke or serious. It does seem like a cool country, but I'd like to party during this month and think about more serious things later. Not sure if Kazakhstan fits that criterium
>>2895779
Why isn't it as good when you're older?
>>
>>2895611
>people have said it's boring and the girls are skittish
poorfags, getting a monthly rental sucks though, accommodation is shit, everything else about the country is good
if you are white you can pick up easily in TW
>Thailand seemed cool to party at and meet girls
Whores you mean, amusingly I do incredibly well with jaded white women in Bangkok, these women wouldn't even look at me back home, its funny
>Malaysia and Indonesia seem too muslim to have fun
Correct, unless you want to fuck smelly western hippies in Bali. Otherwise both the countries suck balls.
>>2895779
>cambodia isn't a shithole
lmao
it's peak shithole

>>2895819
I was thinking of staying in different places and not just a month in Taipei.
Taiwan really has my preference since it seems like a functioning country and the girls look cute
I know this comes over as shallow but after the trip I have lots of serious things to work on so I'm really looking forward party, hike and screw round
>>
>>2895825
I've spent a lot of time in the country, Taiwan has amazing /out/ stuff, it's world class for such a small island. The mountain trails are comfy as fuck. There's multiday hikes but you need to go in the right season, otherwise stick to day hikes.
Eastern side of the island is empty and really nice.
The accommodation value is perfectly fine outside of Taipei too but all the coolest shit is there so it's a prisoners dilemma type thing. That would be my only criticism of the place, in winter I've frozen my ass off in 4 star hotels, asked cleaning staff for another blanket and they just replaced my sheet so I still was freezing lol
Dating is easy, not sure where you heard this from, sure if if you're only there for 3 days maybe expect women to not give the slightest shit about you, but for a month, simple as.
>>
>>2895825
Do NOT go to Taiwan. I lived there for years and it's a 3rd world hell hole. The people are 2 faced soulless lying bastards, all the food is bland and tastes like shit, it's inconvenient as fuck and 100 years behind the modern world technology wise, and it's an ugly as fuck dump, filthy and polluted.

The girls are all stuck up absolute fucking cunts who think they're God's gift when they're really bottom of the barrel cheap knock off wannabe Japanese bitches, and every single fucking guy there is a massive literal faggot. Taiwan is the Congo of Asia.

Don't go.

>>2895611
There is a very large, obvious choice country missing from your list

This guy is either making a futile attempt at gatekeeping or is a genuine retard. Ignore

I’m also looking to go to SEA in September-December does anyone know if the super el nino is gonna fuck anything up?

>>2895611
How did you finish your Bachelor’s at 21? Congrats man
>>
>>2895947
More than likely without any internships.
>>
>>2895947
If you start at age 18 and just hammer through it's not that hard. Just get at it and summer classes too.
I had a roommate who did his two year associate's degree in one year.
>>
>>2895611
Cambodia is pretty good anon, the woman are very hospitable and kind. Recommend, just avoid the poor areas
>>
>>2895611
Go to China, loads to see, great food and super cheap, I went in Jan and spent around $1200 USD for 25 days
>>
>>2895955
>super cheap
>spent around $1200 USD for 25 days
kwab
>>
>>2895958
Is that a lot of money for you?
>>
>>2895975
my rent in China was about $120/month. I stayed almost 4x longer than you and still spent less
>>
>>2895977
OP is asking about a holiday not living there. Sounds like you agree with me that China is cheap?
>>
>>2895981
yeah but i'm saying it's even cheaper than you advertised. Even when I travelled to Chengdu I got a shitty room for $60 for 14 days
>>
>>2895985
I was travelling with my wife and we both had a good year so I wasn't too concerned about saving a couple dollars, most expensive things were the train tickets, closely followed by hotels. If I was on my own I'd do it cheaper but in the scheme of things I just wanted to take it easy and be comfortable
>>
>>2895611
I went to South Korea last year with GF.
We spent three weeks between Seoul, Busan, and Gyeongju (recommended if you want to see some history and not just Hongdae and Itaewon).
Koreans are polite, but be prepared to see people rushing on the subway or vomiting outside bars during the week.
Oh, and don't think of it as a K-drama: there's still a barrier between foreigners and Koreans. Just like in Japan.
Please: be careful with spicy food and do NOT use Google Maps (because commies could use it to invade the country) or Google Translate.
Use KakaoMaps and Papago.

grow up

>arrive in Chengdu
>look up hotel on baidu ditu
>it's like $3 for a hostel bunk
>go there
>sorry no foreigner
>look up next hotel
>like $3 for a capsule
>wechat the guy
>hey u take or foreigner or no? how much is it?
>yes we take cost is $20
>send him the screenshot of the chinese listing for $3
>he sends me a chinese flag emoji with a yellow fist as if trying to scam foreigners is a patriotic statement
Grow up and get cucked? At least the place I chose didn't rip me off. I wouldn't have even minded paying $20 for the capsule if that was the real price.
>>
>>2896085
Good for you but $1200 for a month of travel in a non third world location is in fact objectively cheap and doesn't warrant childish nitpicking oneupsmanship
>>
>>2895611
>Malaysia and Indonesia seem too muslim to have fun
Malaysia is boring and you're absolutely right. Many islands and regions in Indonesia are Christian and incredible. Sulawesi is a good starter. If you're quick you can see Ma'Nene in Toraja. It's when they bring out the corpses and put cigarettes in their mouths and change their clothes. It was an incredible, beautiful and surprisingly touching experience.

>>2896089
>it's a 3rd world hell hole
lmao wut
Taipei is peak 1st world city
Smelling some cyber army mainlander up in here

Is Busan good Sir Trips of Wisdom?
I've had a few people tell me they liked it
>>
>>2895611
Just go to Thailand, it is the number 1 tourist destination in southeast asia.
>>
>>2895611
>but from research i only see trashy euros chasing prostitutes that are 30 plus

Fuck off you little shit. There’s so many 18-25 year olds
>pick up girls in Japan
Did you fuck them? Or just take them out for some small finger food
>>
>>2895611
You already went to the only good Asian country
>>
>>2895947
I'm a Dutchie, finished 6th year of secondary education at 17
Uni bachelors takes three years here
>>2895955
It just seems to daunting. Don't know where to start and my mandarin is super basic and mostly restaurant jargon since i worked in a chinese restaurant for years
>>2895841
You convinced me, thank you.I'm thinking of doing one week of hiking and then spending the rest of the time in Taipei
>>2895843
mate i grew up in the Netherlands. Comfy country, but food culture here is dead bar Amsterdam
The most mid Asians here get laid a lot because they're rare. I experienced the same with myself in Japan lol
>>
>>2896129
As Americans, GF and I had a great time.
Also in Busan don't use Google or Apple Maps.
Use Naver Maps; you can easily download it from the Play/Apple Store.
It'll be easier to ask for directions with Naver.
For buses (recommended), you can use T-Money Go.
Or if you want a taxi, there's K.Ride; it lets you pay and set your destination even if the driver doesn't speak English.
For food, I recommend Milmyeon (if you want something other than fried chicken).
>>
>>2895611
i would pick Vietnam. Northern parts. best mont i had in asia...
>>
>>2895903
I had sex with 70 women in Taiwan.
>>
>>2895890
Again, 70 women.

Fine, don't listen to me. Go to Taiwan and don't get laid. Report your experience here.

>>2895851
You are a fool.

>>2896249
