Hey voyagers,

The sticky probably needs to be updated, I'll keep the thread open for suggestions:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

/trv/ is a slow board, so don't expect immediate responses. CHECK THE CATALOG – you might find threads already discussing topics you're interested in.

Before asking for suggestions, tell /trv/ about your:
>Budget
>Interests
>Level of understanding of the local language(s)
This makes it easier to give quality advice. Of course, keep your posts travel related.

For all other matters:
General culture questions >>>/int/
Politics discussion >>>/pol/
Transportation discussion >>>/n/
Outdoors-related discussion >>>/out/

For more information about safety, planning and other miscellaneous topics, check out the pastebin:

>Last Thread: >>2774597

>What is this thread? Why are there two generals?
/rcg/ was initially created as a way for the roller coaster enthusiasts on here to discuss all things roller coasters and theme parks. While roller coasters are the main focus of these threads (and the title of the general) there is also discussion on other theme parks, their rides, as well as the parks themselves and trip planning too. That's where /tpg/ comes in.
>Can I talk about Disney/Universal parks in this thread?
Absolutely! Disney discussion of all sorts including rides/resorts/dining/trip planning is OK.

Thread Pro Tip: Talk about roller coasters!

Never left the USA
south-america-map
I have never left the USA and my friends often ask why. But the reality is that I am just not thrilled about other places that much and the places I want to go to are fucking weird in certain ways that make me not want to go. Like I am never going to Korea or anywhere where the toilets aren't like the USA toilets. I primarily want to visit Mexico and Argentina but I hear that you can't drink the tap water there or you will get sick. What kind of shit is that? Literally can't brush your teeth with the water either. Then some places are very VERY close to third world-esque situations. Like I wanted to go to Puerto Rico or The Dominican Republic but I hear you basically have to stay on the resorts which if you are on a resort, you are basically just in Miami from what I hear. So what do you guys think? Is traveling really a good and useful experience or is it mostly ass? not to mention, I hate transit. I hate waiting / getting fucked over by flights etc.

Wanting to try out a vagrant vacation and hoping you all know of some good abandoned places to explore. I know lots of industrial areas to check out in the cities, but any other good shit to check out as well, tourist or otherwise? Countryside abandoned or cool stuff to see outside the cities? Oh and any good pizza joints recommendations are always a plus.

Anybody from a third-world country ever (legally) travel to the US?
US-visa-1366x768-2187306852
Is it really as hard as it seems? My friend in Colombia is trying to visit the US but it seems unreasonably hard to get a tourist visa. Do they really require an in-person interview at the US embassy in Bogota? He doesn't live anywhere near Bogota, how is that reasonable to expect him to travel all the way to Bogota ? Is there any way around that or can he do the interview over the phone? He's just trying to get a tourist visa, not become an immigrant, so why make him pay for a flight and take extra days off work just for a tourist visa?

And how long does it actually take to get a tourist visa approved? How long in advance does he need to plan the trip?

2nd trip to mexico city
IMG_0930
Thinking about going to CDMX for a second time, a week in June. I've been to most of the major sights (anthropology museum, zocalo, teotihuacan pyramids, chapultec castle, Museo Soumaya). Do you think a week is too long given that I've seen a lot of the city? Mostly I just like the food and I didn't get to try a lot last time because everything was so crowded during xmas. I had amazing tacos that also gave me food poisoning. I have not been to the megabiblioteca, the frida museum, or the museum of modern art. Anything else worth exploring?

Honestly not sure I'm that cut out for traveling. I get kinda burned out on museums and reading placards all day. I hooked up with a mexican girl via tinder and that was the highlight of the trip, hope to meet more qt's down there too.

Partying solo in Europe w/o hostels
Screenshot 2025-04-25 at 5.57.36 PM
Going on a trip around the Baltics soon. I aged out of hostels (in my 30s) but still enjoy a night out, for which company tends to be required.

This isn't an issue in places Asia like Japan, the Philippines, etc - just go to an expat bar and you're immediately around other solos who want to chat and go out on the town. In Europe, however, everything is less segregated, which is generally good but also leaves me at a loss on how to meet others.

Thoughts? Also I'm gay and my dick is small if that matters.

Welcome back, 4channers!

I'm in the process of booking a trip to Kenya. Flying into Nairobi, spending a few days visiting national parks & museums, then I'll fly to Mombasa to do the same. Considering another few days in Zanzibar.

I had initially considered Ethiopia, but the vast distances and poor infrastructure made me think Kenya will be better equipped.

Any suggestions/tips would be appreciated. Where to stay, what to be cautious of, how much I can expect to spend. 10-14 days in total.

Favorite part of the US?
I have become obsessed with this area in recent years. Most years, I do one international trip, one US trip outside this, and then one trip to this area for 1-2 months during the summer. The food, the sunbathing, the beaches, the ferries to the islands, the stereotypical New England coastal towns, the special summer events; I love it. Negative marks for parts of New Haven and Providence, and Newport is a nightmare during the peak season.

Can I rent a car in the US with my US license as a non-resident?
istockphoto-469779054-612x612
I used to live in the US and got a US driver’s license while I was there. I'm European and have since moved back to Europe, but the license is still valid.

I’m planning a roadtrip in the US and was wondering: can I still rent a car there using my US license, even though I no longer live in the country? Has anyone done this before? Any issues at the rental agency?
I also have a point of contact that I can reach at my old residence listed on my license if that means anything.

Redpill me on moving to Paris
paris
I have to decide which city I'm going to live in for the next two years. I'm male, in my late twenties and I have a small dog. I have been accepted to two major masters programmes, one in Paris and the other in Zurich.

Zurich seems to be the best option, safe and clean, best quality of life, good countryside and outdoor activities. But I have also heard that it is a boring city for young people (I am not that into the nightlife, but I also don't want to isolate myself).

I have mixed feelings about Paris and I'd like to hear more about your experiences there. My main concern is finding an apartment because I don't want to live in a 9mts walk-in closet with no bathroom. I would also like to know if it is easy to integrate or find work afterwards. What is it like to live there as a student/non-turist?

Is Paris worth it to turn down a life in Zurich?

Would wanaka be a better choice or are there other ski areas I'm overlooking?

Korea
Screenshot 2025-02-28 at 10.54.54 PM
I'm currently in Japan and looking to go to Korea for a week or so after. I traveled there before for a month and stayed in an Airbnb which was like $45-50 a night for a 3 bedroom. Now looking for a single bedroom I can't seem to find a good deal for AirBnb's (Some decent ones around $40) and hotels don't seem that well priced either (Around $40 too). Now $40 for a hotel for me is fine, but I'm currently in Japan I can stay at a good hotel in Kyoto for like $30 a night (I'll admit I probably got a good price). For those that travel to Korea, where did you stay, how much did you spend, and how nice was it? It just seems interesting to me that Seoul would be more expensive than Kyoto/Osaka (I know seoul is the capital and the other two aren't but sitll). Also, personally not interested in any share house/hostel types of arrangements. Thank you =)

I have had a pretty bad accident overseas recently. Just wanted to remind you of the importance of a good insurance and preparation before you go overseas (which might be even as close as another EU country).

Make sure you have a policy that covers a private clinic because public hospitals might be too badly equipped or too full to have a surgery on time. It should also cover transportation by helicopter if you go hiking. One time not paying attention where you are going or badly calculating the grip of the ground is enough. Dogs, tics etc can also give you rabies and other diseases or venoms and time is of essence here. For this reason, also always make sure to have some kind of connection if you go alone. Relying on free Wifi is not enough.

The hiking was just an example, I have had my accident in the middle of the city. Just because you lived 20 or 30 years in a city yourself without an accident, doesn't mean it cannot happen when you go on a trip. Especially in a new environment where you feel distracted/insecure and don't know the local (unwritten) traffic laws.

Except for getting the insurance, it makes sense to search in advance to write down some emergency numbers. For example, insurances typically have some hotline for foreign incidents where you can get a second opinion from a home country doctor. Local embassy, english speaking lawyer etc depending on what you are doing etc

Also, have at least someone on good terms who can come to help you with stuff; ideally do not travel on your own.

On the verge of completing my Computer Science degree in Canada. For the life of me, I can not even land an internship or even get an interview here, given every job has 100+ applicants at minimum. In general, even a position for a part-time dishwasher job will get 500+ applications making even min wage jobs impossibly hard to get. I have dual citizenship and looking things up on OpenRent there are quite a few flats for about 600-800 in Newcastle, which is way cheaper than anything in this country. How is the tech market in Newcastle? Is it chavvy? If I'm going to the UK I'd rather avoid anything to do with the city of London.

Is it just me, or are most Japanese cities boring?
IMG_7739
Hear me out, weebs. Besides the big three (Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto), I’m under the impression most large Japanese cities are quite boring.

They almost completely lack historical sights, which is a given, as the country was built from scratch recently. But in contrast to Tokyo, they also lack their Shibuya / Harajuju / Akihibara, Shinjuku (that’s probably just the tip of the iceberg): non-historical areas that still brim with life. They don’t even have it at a smaller scale, it just isn’t there.

An average Euro town of this size (1+ mln) will have TONS of historical areas, an old town, dedicated areas for going out. And I don’t mean capitals, look at Valencia, at Lille, at Hamburg. Packed with landmarks and uniqueness.

In comparison, what is there to see or do in Sendai, specifically? Or in Kawasaki? Or in Fukuoka? Or Saitama? I know these cities don’t cater to tourists, but how do they even cater to locals? I watch videos from these cities and there’s just … nothing there, like most of the screen time is spent in some generic underground mall and everything above the ground is samey.

I know Japan in general is a good country for eating out. But that’s really it. There are no sights, no exciting urbanism, just featureless, drab, extremely samey (however clean and safe they may be) concrete jungles.

How do you pack, /trv/? Do you pack as little as you can? Or do you pack more? I'm planning a trip to Europe soon and am curious about your packing strategies. Also curious about luggage too; backpack or suitcase? Brands, sizes, etc.

How do people travel Italy?
2
I want to see Italy this summer for three weeks. Thought I'd go through all the major cities but then I realized you'd need a lot more than that to see everything it has to offer, so I decided to just do a couple of places like Rome, Florence, Venice, etc, but be thorough and get a real sense of these places together with all the history they contain. Guess I'll have to come back another time to see the rest.
But then I searched for lodging in Booking and the lowest hotel around the city centre is 290$ A NIGHT. I don't want to spend 6-7k on hotel rooms nor do I want to stay in hostels or in some remote apartments in the outskirts of the city and take the metro or walk every morning to see the sights.
The obvious solution is to rent a car which you can get at 1-1.5k for the entire trip and sleep in it, but then I read they have these "ZTL" zones at the tourist areas where all the interesting stuff are and you get heavily fined for entering them.
So how to go about this trip? And what cities should I visit during three weeks?

TEFL
1740720131191785
I just signed up to learn a 120 hour TEFL course. Being a retard, I didn't realise you need a Bachelor's degree to legally teach in pretty much every country. I watched and read numerous videos and articles/blogs and genuinely not one mentioned this.

The company isn't offering a refund.

Does anyone have experience of illegally teaching, or workarounds without a degree?

Alternatively, one of the few countries that does accept people without degrees is Cambodia. Is this worth teaching in? I've read the pay is terrible and you basically have to go around handing out your CV begging for a job.

Short term odd-jobbs while travelling
istockphoto-1711427615-612x612
I would like to maximize my time travelling, does anyone have any experiences working/volounteering in exchange for an accomodation?

I would like to travel for a few months but I don't want to waste all my money bumming about for so long. How feasible it is in your experience to get a free accomodation (or at least regular hot meals) in exchange for some odd-jobs? I've checked the major volounteering sites and they all look like scams, are there any good ones? Do I just email random hostels/churches/soup kitchens? I'm thinking about the americas (brasil, colombia, mexico, the us) because the language barrier wouldn't be too high but I'm considering some asian countries like Korea and Malaysia too. I did some bartending and landscaping back in the days.

Genoa?
IMG_2066
Hey, /trv/,

Is Genova a nice place to visit? I’ve been to a lot of other parts of Italy, but I’ve only driven past it. Heading to the Cinque Terre this summer, but don’t want to spend a whole week in a tiny, picturesque tourist trap, so thinking about adding a few days in the city.

What are some must-sees/do’s/eats? How many days does it deserve?

If you think Genoa sucks, where in NW Italy would you suggest instead?

Traveling as a family of four (two adults, two middle schoolers), by train. We’re into history, art and architecture, scenic views, food, and cafés. Kids are into gelato/bakeries, archaeology/ancient sites, overpriced sneakers, and rolling their eyes at us while staring into their phones. My wife and I both speak slightly-better-than-basic Italian and we’re not traveling on a budget.

Sicilian cat unrelated.

Grazie!

Hitchhiking Greece to China
Greece to China
Hello /trv/,
I am planning on hitchhiking to Western China from Greece at the end of this month and was hoping some anons could offer some advice. I am mostly interested in knowing:
>Information about border crossings
>What to expect in terms of climate
>Places to visit
>General tips/advice from anons who have done similar journeys

Also if there are any books that you may reccommend that I can read as I have no required end date, I intend on taking my time to learn about each country. I am specifically interested in learning about the religions like the various christian sects, islam and the folk religions along of course with any history.

Since I have no strict time constraints I mostly want to move place to place in acordance with the climate as I understand the lowlands of central asia are extremely hot yet the mountains are temperate, any advice on that would be extremely helpful.

Help me decide where to go tomorrow?
Screenshot 2025-04-07 at 1.35.58 PM
Life has provided me a chance to travel for just a bit over 2 weeks. I'm departing from Western Canada, and considering my options.

Join me in this thread while I research my options and share my findings.

I will leave anytime Wednesday or late Tuesday. Budget ideally $3k including flights, will consider more for the right ideas.

Obviously this is really last minute...

I am late 20s man, barebones French and Spanish.

Primarily, I wish to get out of the Western Hemisphere for a bit. I've been depressed but coming out of it, enjoying the idea of getting some new stimulation to see what I enjoy. I like old sites, food, and a chance to chill and party with some locals. Beach sounds excellent, hiking I'd consider but not a priority this trip as my knee is a bit funky. Museums and shit are cool but not a priority, Thinking Bourdain esque adventure although realizing without much planning my options are limited.

Don't need a lot of luxury, will stay in hostels.

Late this September I have a week off between a work obligation in Zurich and visiting a friend in Berlin. Bavaria is a natural mid way point between the two I can spend 4-5 days in. The problem is I have no clue what to do.

Oktoberfest is in full swing in Munich and hotels/Airbnb prices are already outrageous. I've been to Munich before and would honestly like to avoid the crowds and chaos of Oktoberfest Munich since I'll be alone. Im looking for a small(ish) town with close proximity to nature/hiking but still will enough amenities and typical tourist shit to do. I know there are some cool medieval towns up north away from the mountains like Wurzburg, Rothenburg and Bamberg but I'm afraid I'd have trouble filling 4 days with just looking at old buildings.

I'm not looking for much beyond a nice hike, mountain views, medieval shit and maybe reading a book in a quite beer garden. Landshut is on the short list but would love more advice/suggestions.
