is this feasible for someone to do until their thirties? im 22, i have gotten to meet three so far, and i will probably meet another one toward the end of the year.
Not like it's exactly hard, the bigger question is simply why?
>>2904302Idk about that, it's probably hard to get into either Venezuela or Guyana now if a stamp is on your passport because Venezuela has been eyeing Guyana to invade for a couple decades now because of irredentist claims. Getting to Venezuela period probably isn't a cakewalk anyhow with the war and all that. It's like having an Israel stamp on your passport and trying to go to most Middle Eastern nations
>>2904304I'll obviously give Venezuela another chance another year, when things are more peaceful. After all, I still have eight years left. I’m thinking of going to Paraguay at the end of the year with a friend.
>>2904304Venezuela is fairly easy, the big problem right now is the gov change with with the massive quake they had will make it hard.>>2904305>After all, I still have eight years left. I’m thinking of going to Paraguay at the end of the year with a friend.WTF does this mean
>>2904307If I’m 22, I still have eight years to visit Venezuela if I want to make it to every south american country before my thirties. I don’t exactly need to visit NOW a country where the americans just robbed the population of all its gold/money and they are practically on the brink of civil war. There’s still, yknow, Paraguay or Suriname.
>>2904308who the fuck cares about 30
>>2904311i don't really care either. it just feels like a good goal to have. maybe when i get into my thirties i will try another continent. but for now, i don't want anything more than visiting every country in South America. the last one i went to was Uruguay and i legit had the best time of my life.
>>2904304>>2904305That ship sailed years ago.Should have gone back when it was nice and cool under Chavez and Maduro, nowadays its a total shitshow with a bunch of traitors at the wheel, the earthquake is just the beginning trust me.FPBP applies however. You are not missing out by not visiting Suriname, French Guiana, Uruguay or Paraguay those countries have nothing worth seeing or doing that you can't get somewhere else.
Although I understand back then you were an underaged b& and had no realistic way to travel there.
>>2904331>Uruguay or Paraguay those countries have nothing worth seeing or doing that you can't get somewhere else.so wrong. i had a really nice time in Uruguay on my last trip. anons will say this while /trv/ has threads about the Philippines, Thailand and Central Africa. what's the difference between those countries and Paraguay, besides the fact that some of them have sex tourism for weirdos? not my vibe. i like the culture of Latin American countries, even though they are all very different from each other.
>>2904334I'm not the world's biggest fan of SEA but you'd have to be incredibly ignorant not to understand the many pros:- Generally far, far cheaper than Uruguay/ Paraguay.- Denser populations lead to less time spent on transport and existing transport connections between cities.- Countries have distinct ethnic groups with different traditions, they aren't just slightly whiter Mestizos vs slightly browner Mestizos.- Religion is completely different from Roman Catholicism.- Cuisine is more varied and interesting.- Historically far more interesting. Uruguayan and Paraguay are totally irrelevant outside the War of the Triple Alliance. SEA has had numerous different kingdoms for thousands of years, to say nothing of recent history.- Latin American 'culture' is just pretending to be a hardcore Catholic whilst being as degenerate as possible. They're hypocrites to the H. Sure SEA has many degenerates but at least they're honest with themselves.
>>2904334Uruguay sucks, chile and Argentina are mediocre, Brazil and Columbia and Ecuador or violent shitholes, central America is an expensive poverty shithole . Trash continent
>>2904305>After all, I still have eight years leftWhat happens in 8 years? Die if AIDS?
>>2904314You're a dumb shit bro
>>2904314Post your pussy
>>2904662>>2904663Sorry for making you guys self aware that you are unc
>>2904301I want to visit Peru my first time going to south america mostly for machu pichu, is it worth it?
>>2904773No
>>2904884Why not?
>>2904903Why would it be? Let's see your costs/benefits comparison
>>2904773The Sacred Valley as a whole is kino. Machu Picchu is a racket. It costs around $200 USD for the full trip there and back from Cusco. It could easily be a rainy day as well and that can ruin the entire trip. South America has some incredible nature, but don't go mainly for Machu Picchu.
>>2904308Just make sure your personal life is settled because I was 22 backpacking, COVID hit, delayed me from advancing in life. Now I will graduate at 30... I want death
>>2904301Only missing the guyanas, Ecuador and Paraguay, what do you want to know?>>2904304That has been on ongoing issue for a 100 years, way before chavez. nothing is happening>>2904773Peru is great but dont just do it for Machu Picchu. I understand you need to do it but its such a tourist trap
>>2904773Peru is a big shithole, don't do it.Went there last year. For the first time i felt bad for people
>>2907749Compared to what, Europe? Developing South American countries have higher HDI than most developing Asian and African countries. >>2904656Wimpy faggot. All of those countries mog a genuine shithole like Cambodia.
Cultural immersion as a European descended person is doable in South America. Most people in the whiter parts of the continent don't assume I am a foreigner at first glance. Spanish is a European language which I can speak passably well. In tropical Asia I will always be a visible outsider, speaking only English (because Asian languages are quite simply unpronounceable). The barriers are higher. And with prices rising in countries like Thailand, I don't buy the premise that Southeast Asia is sooo much cheaper either. Time will tell what my upcoming Peru+ trip costs per day.
