Board: /trv/
"/trv/ - Travel" is 4chan's imageboard dedicated to travel and the countries of the world.
Hey voyagers,
/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 in the next post: I'm going on a trip soon to Australia and I have to buy some new clothes for summer there. Some t-shirts, some shorts, maybe a nice shirt and pants for going out to dinner in, some new shoes. But I don't even know where to start, and time is running out fast. The thought of going there and looking bad is making me so depressed. I've never looked good, never had a good outfit, but all I know is, I want to look like someone well travelled, laid back, care free. It's hard to do that with new clothes, but I don't want to buy thrifted shit. What should I do /trv/, and have you ever felt this way during or before travel? inb4 I'm a retard yes I know be helpful or move on. What should I know habibis?? why does France get so many more tourists than everyone else? Is it fit for /trv/ again?

Previous: >>2746473 how would you rate the food here besides Thailand and Vietnam? How's life in the Midwest? I'm tired of the hot stupid south and thinking of going up to Michigan/Ohio/Illinois/Wisconsin. Trans Friendly countries for vacation. I'm trying to find some trans friendly vacation spots for my wife and I. she is still visibly trans, so I want to make sure she is safe wherever we plan to go. Specifically somewhere outside the USA or Canada, but I am open to suggestions if you know of other places we could go too!. THANK YOU! Discuss everything related to Philippines travel here. 
About 10 years ago it was effortless to find study partners in Thailand using the apps. In fact, back then I found way more study partners than I ever had time to meet up with for a study session.
Today, using the exact same apps it seems impossible to find even a single decent study partner. I have tried like 4-5 different apps now with extremely disappointing results, I would say the success rate is even worse than in the west. The only study partners that have matched me are either 35+, fat or otherwise unattractive.
It looks like if I want to get any studying done at all, I have no choice but to hire a paid tutor and it is depressing.
>But you are older
Yes, but is early 30s really too old for study partners that are in their 20s?
>You are unattractive
While I am no gigachad, I am also not unattractive. Even if I say so myself, I believe I am slightly above average in looks and do not think I have become noticeably worse looking with age. I am still fit, and while I was poor 10 years ago I am now rich.
>JBW
I am white
So what is going on here, is thailand ruined for study vacations? Anyone else have the same experience? Anyone from here or has been there? Planning a backpack trip and looking to get some insight on cool spots or places, especially Romania/Bulgaria since I know nothing about those Long term travel chads how do you keep things interesting?

How do you guys keep the excitement up after a while? I've resorted to just eating out as my main reason to leave my airbnb, mostly just sit playing vidya with people who have shit ping from australia, or just sleeping. Instead of getting healthier I feel noticeably worse somehow even though asia(have been in Japan for the past 2 months) is suppose to be the healthiest people on the planet. Every time I talk to friends back home it's hard to do anything and they all seem to be having way more fun fueling depressed feelings.
What gives what am I doing wrong in travels? Do you follow any?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G13e9yCazpE Going to Iguaçu falls at the end of March, by plane. I want to get back to Rio by bus after that. How much time should I spend around Puerto/Foz de Iguaçu and what are the cool spots to stop by in the South of Brazil? Any recommandations on what to do/see? Should I move to Orange County CA? I'm in Seattle and just about done with the shit weather, ugly workaholic from home people, and wokeness. I can transfer within my company. I'm gonna be in Reading UK from April to June then in Swindon UK for a couple months after mid July. Any tips on living there or places to go? I get to pick my hotel too which is up to $90 a day. I've already been to
>BATH
>Stratford-upon-Avon
>Oxford
>Windsor Castle
>Stonehenge
>Warwick Castle
I definitely want to explore the Cotswolds and visit Snowdonia How easy is this shit for autists? I'm not going to remember any of the student's names. I'm literally just a white guy who speaks English. Is it that easy? How many consecutive times can I visa free run here, usually risk free? I'm an American and we get 2mo visa free now. If I fly out of Bangkok to KL or somewhere, should I wait a few days before returning? Is it true the border staff are more chill at DMK? Anywhere off the beaten path in Bulgaria that's worthwhile to travel to? Just got back from a 5-day trip to Kyiv. I'm gonna post a load of my photos here. Feel free to ask questions.
Itinerary: I got an early flight from my home city to Krakow, then took a train to Krakow centre. From there I picked up my sleeper train tickets from the post office, caught a second train to Przemysl and killed a few hours by getting zurek and pierogi at a small cafe. I wandered around Przemysl for an hour or so; nice town. Then I waited in line for 10 mins at the immigration building, crossed through and caught a sleeper train Never left Europe in my life
Mainly because I want to experience the jungle and nature but also because of the experience with people
Is Pic related really true? Are so many backpackers young women? White women?
Would certainly be a bonus. I'm not below 25 anymore.
Also any general tips? I always liked the vibes of college towns. The towns that are in rural areas that are mostly dominated by the colleges in them. I think I might move to one of them.
What do you guys think are the best college towns in America? I forgot a debit card in a slum ATM while being hustled and bustled today. Shaqueesha from Bank says she gonna send a new one over nomsayin'? I don't believe it. Have you ever even tried to read an Asian street address? It's so over. Do I give it a week, express.. how many attempts.. I hope she puts the hotel name on the envelope or we are so screwed. Have you ever seen police taking people from the plane? What happened? Were you afraid by the situation? Many people say that places like Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan etc. are past their prime and their golden age was X years ago.
But which places are experiencing their golden age right now? I would love to see more of those kinds of places. Or is literally the whole world just fucking deteriorating right now? How does healthcare work overseas if you end up really sick while traveling? How should I spend a few days in Burlington, Vermont? If I have two and a half weeks in Argentina to visit Patagonia in late November / early December, should I just focus on Buenos Aires and El Calafate / El Chalten, or should I add more stops?
I like the look of other places like Salta, Valdes Peninsula, Bariloche, Ushuaia. But I recognize that the country is massive and I don't want to spend too much time flying around. The air looks so polluted. I'd love to live abroad, but air quality is a big issue for me. Do any of you carry a proper camera for backpacking trips? Is it worth it?
A DSLR is out of the question due to size and weight, so I'm considering getting a smaller point-and-shoot. However, with today's smartphones, I'm not sure if the difference isn't marginal and not worth the extra weight and stress. Bros, I'm going to be expat in Singapore.
Give me some tips
>is it easy for white decent looking guy in Singapore to have some luck on Tinder or other dating apps?
I heard SG women are pretty materialistic, they expect you to pay for dinner during the date and in general they want to get married quickly instead of having casual fun
>what minimum salary it is the best to earn to get a decent living there
any other tips will be apreciated I've lived in 8 different countries now and I still don't know where I would like to settle down. I thought I'd travel around and find my "perfect place" but turns out that a perfect place doesn't actually exist, everywhere fucking sucks for different reasons.
Any Anons moved to a different country and didn't start regretting after 2-3 years?
I wouldn't even mind nomading around for the rest of my life, but it's not the same once you're in your 30s. I feel like I need a more permanent base. Specifically

>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.

>https://www.mousesteps.com I come from Eastern Europe, but now live in Western Europe. Recently I was visiting my family, and on my way back I got seated next to an old western man. He told me he was visiting his son. The son moved to Eastern Europe to get a based trad wife because in the west there's too much feminism. Yet, the old man was unhappy, because this was his son's third girlfriend in the span of two years, and their relationship wasn't looking good either. I haven't really said this to him, but my immediate thought was "have you considered the possibility that in this particular case the problem might not entirely be boiling down to western feminism?".
What do you think passport bros? Is there anywhere worth visiting in Africa? staying at my first hostel. what should i expect? want to go biking in rural china, not super far out like tibet or some 2 person/sq km mongolia place but places like szechuan and shaanxi. Want delicious food and cool landscapes. Anyone been? How hardcore are the police? Titanic is the most hilarious in your face example of hypergamy and the biggest redpill about women it’s almost like it was written this way on purpose so that you would have to find the hidden meanings behind Rose’s abhorrent behavior What’s it like travelling there? The map shown is Hans island which is bordered between Canada (Nunavut) and Greenland I've never been to California.
This is my assessment from watching youtube walkthroughs of the cities
>boring sanitized soulless shit
>absolute pure evil
Is there anything besides this? Should I even bother visiting? I dreamed of moving there as a kid. Recommend things I need to experience in Los Angeles?
Really into asian or japanese stuff so I might check Japantown Wanna travel to South America hopefully by end of year, is it worth vaxmaxxing? I got most vaccines as a kid, pero no tengo Hepatitis A, Typhoid, Yellow Fever vaccines. Is it worth getting them? Might consider rabies vaccine too. What to do in New Mexico? I am travelling to Australia this year for 3 weeks for the first time, and plan to see Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane. I have family in Brisbane I'll be staying with while I'm there.

>can move and work pretty much anywhere I want
>good-looking, I'm just just really bad at initiating

Where should I go while I'm visiting? Where should I hang out to meet interesting girls in Australia? I’m going to be in Mannheim, Germany for about 8 days in mid February, staying at a friend’s apartment.
I’ve never been to Germany (or Europe, for that matter). I wouldn’t mind taking a train a few hours out to check out other cities or nearby countries.
Any recommendations for cities or towns worth visiting? Have you ever tried to live in SE Asia (specifically Thailand, Laos, Cambodia Vietnam) on a very low budget? I’m talking living in fan rooms and having a monthly budget of under $500. Basically, just a fuck it and go kind of escape from the west. Anyone currently huffing it hardcore in SE ASIA? What’s your budget like and what do you do all day? Anyone worked in cruise ships? I'm a neet trying to land a job in one and maybe visit a couple countries for free.
I know working hours are fucked and it doesn't pay much to clean rooms and shitters but whatever. Anyone have the link to this? Lots of great travel advice to be gleaned, but I lost the link when I deleted my account. Thanks! Going down to chico town tomorrow, any advice anons? Discuss everything regarded vietnam here
Useful link to gain your visa:

You don't need a visa If you are from Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Norway, South Korea, Spain, Sweden, GB. The urge to go North calls to me again.
I drove up from York to Skye via Glencoe last year and absolutely loved it, spent a week in a cosy little hut by myself doing plenty of walks and just enjoying the relative solitude.
The Isle of Skye itself is lovely, I did the Trotternish Ridge walk among others, but I feel like I could have spent way more time on the mainland, around Glen Torridon and such. Just anywhere quiet and starkly beautiful with big hills really.
So that's what I'm asking. I spend hours at work looking on Google Maps at where might give me the same sense of awe again. But I'm talking individual car parks like the one at Loch Arkaig (you can't just leave your car on a lot of the single track roads), hills and Munros, beaches, bothies. If you have any experience up there I'm all ears. What island can i live on permanently? Do i need to buy an island or can i live in some random country's atoll like a vagrant? I was thinking of becoming 100% isolated and living off the land and water. Anyone had to deal with flights anxiety before? Idk why but the last flight I took in almost felt like I had to get off the plane during taxi. My heart was going crazy fast and my fingers tingling.. this came and went throughout the flight and now I fear going again. Has anyone taken pills to help this? Is there a place in black Africa where you can just go, like you do to most European or East Asian countries? Where you can just go outside of hotel, without constant full-alert mode to avoid being scammed and/or robbed, or where you can just go on beach without being bothered by local niggers?
I've heard people in Rwanda and Cabo Verde are more relaxed and less obtrusive than typical Africans. Is this true? Are there other African places/countries like that? Is Russia a viable destination for tourism? Has /trv/ been here?

Why is it only the most dangerous countries that make people do this? Hello anons
I am going to Zurich for NYE, then Grindelwald/Wengen/Interlaken for paragliding, mountains, bratwurst, rosti, scenic trains, cable cars, maybe skiing, chocolate and just enjoying the nature and the beautiful landscapes.
What is something you think I should do during my 3 day trip in this beautiful corner of the planet? Anything a tourist/google/extensive AI research wouldn't know that you think is cool? What's the best spot for bratwurst? 
I recently moved to Park City Utah and now I have to leave because I wasnt homosexual enough to work for Vail Resorts.

I would ask about small towns, off the bewaten path, that still have real culture and industry, but if you know of a place like that, KEEP IT A FUCKING SECRET.
Park City used to be like that and now its one of the most Jewish heinous and faggy places in the country. If you ever want to see what a town looks like after its heart and soul dies.. thats the spot to see >travel to Japan

Where the fuck do I go to drink and chat with fun people? What's going to be the meme city for 2025? Shanghai is too globalized and Chongqing is played out.

Can get a cool, cheap apartment in a city, a vacation house in inaka, and retire.
However, seems like somewhat a difficult thing to do because of visas. Unlike EU it does not seem like there is a straightforward way to buy permanent residency in Japan.
Anyone ever heard of a roundabout way to do this? A buddy told me he heard of someone working for a shell business to seem like a highly skilled worker for a couple years to get PR but search isn't bringing anything up.

the water makes you sick.
the air makes you sick. (polluted roads, traffic, mold in the AC units)
the food makes you sick.
hygiene is india tier.
i guess i'll just walk around then. (enjoy dengue fever and typhus from the mosquitoes.)
well at least i can go to gorgeous beaches...
yeah you can't play in the sand or stay barefoot or you will get hookworm.
if you go in the water (still with shoes on) you get sea lice and rashes.
scams everywhere. desperate trannies harassing you into buying them or trying to rape you. obnoxious and loud roasties and jocks. the ugliest 70 year old motherfuckers you've ever seen walking around with prostitutes and trannies.
basically people just go here to get wasted and fuck whores in the clubs. might as well do that in your country.
all this while breaking out, feeling like shit from the garbage food, and looking like shit as well, the tap water that makes your skin dull and makes all your hair fall off.
parasites are common. your gut bacteria will never be the same. people develop allergies or infections that last years after going here.
remind me again what's the point of this shithole? the literal tranny country.
an entire country turned into a theme park for foreigners. the women prostitute themselves and the men turn into women to do the same.

Apparently Detroit is consider a great place to go in 2025, what are some /trv/ approved activities in the city of niggerly love? Anyone stay here without knowing much Russian? How are the festivities? Why do they put their hands on either side of groin and wait in that position for like 20 seconds? It's like they're testing your ability to get an erection.

We're 3-4 guys in our early 30s (Europe and US) and want a guy's trip. The vibe is like pic related (banter), but most of us are in cold climates so we want somewhere warm.

Any more kino stuff? Not a huge fan of what I found so far. Find something engaging where we could have fun. Is teaching english in Asia as a means to travel worth it?
Is it true that the market is very saturated? I have watched endless travel vlogs going to India and they generally all have the same outcome. It's disgusting.
Is India away from the cities much better? I continuously see members of developing countries and Indians fuming that white men video absolute shitholes in India and state they're just showing the bad parts
Does india have any good parts? We are 6 guys from germany and are looking for a cool vacation place we could live the best 2 weeks of our life.
We will go in autumn 25 so we want it warm and thought about Greece and Coratia. It will be a road trip with 2 cars.
We want a spot where it’s not too noisy, the beach is not crowded…
A airbnb or a flat is needed.
We want to chill at the beach, go 4 a hike…
We got 500-600€ per person for everything and want to stay 1,5 weeks.
Language barrier shouldn’t be a thing because we speak german, english, spanish, turkish and russian
So do you got a rural place, a village, a town where we could live peak?
A region that is really recommendable?
Hope to hear suggestions soon
Love from germany!!! What is there to do in Tucson, Arizona? What is the alternative?
Taiwan? Korea? Viet Nam? Does /trv/ think that tourism as an industry is going to increase or decrease, and why? Will some sources of travellers become more dominant and some cities more popular while others fail? Or a global general increase or decrease?
I personally think international tourism is going to explode. People will get fed up with no change early on in the year and spend more on grass is always greener type escapism trips than ever before, from all Western nations and a few affluent Asian ones like South Korea. 
I'm moving overseas next year in February so that I can 'start a new life', it'll be the first time I moving abroad in my life (permanently anyway).
The main reason is because my family thinks it will be best for me overall and I can probably help my family out when I've settled in with money.
Everyone believes life will be better for me in the country due to better infrastructure and better job opportunities (I know how that sounds but my country isn't getting better any time soon).

>Turkey I know Panama and Costa Rica (maybe Belize?) look interesting, but what about the rest of Central America? What would there be to do in Honduras, Nicaragua, El Salvador and Guatemala? 
I am asking this question here as I have been met with kind of a tricky situation.
I currently have 2 passports. Indonesian, and a European passport. My European passport allows for dual citizenship and does not care for my Indonesian passport or if I have any other passport. Although by Indonesian law, by the age of 21 if you choose to still have the Indonesian passport, you must renounce all your other citizenships.
i would like to keep my European passport as it allows for ease of travel and other reasons. Although I would also like to keep my Indonesian Passport due to business reasons. I understand that this isn't allowed, but I am asking on this reddit to see if anyone has been able to get around this, and if so, how did they do it.
Currently I'm thinking that every time I enter, I fly to a country which is visa free for Indonesians and spend a bit of time there before flying to Indonesia. When leaving, I fly to a visa free country again and spend a bit of time there and then flying on to wherever I need to go with the another ticket bought to my end destination.
I have heard of people doing this and I remember once reading a reddit post about it although I could not find it again and I am inquiring as I would like to know how those who do it do it.
Any advice and answers based on experience of people who have been in the same situation would be really helpful:))) Why haven't you done yours yet Anon. Looking to get a new travel backpack for air travel (i only travel with 1 backpack) and wheeled luggage for road travel. Are these new vacuum backpacks a gimmick or do they actually work? What do you guys use that has been reliable and can take a beating? 
its me again whats up /trv/ its December and you know the deal every new year the plane is taking off at 23th night time so meet me at NAIAX T3 in the afternoon and return is on January 5 longer than usual anyone else at it visiting the snowy parts of asia like the Genghis khan statue in Mongolia and the Harbin ice festival winter theme park thingy so what the hell do i even do here? and yes we do have a tour guide with bus
also i learned that this place was actually a safe haven for Russians during the war and Harbinites used to have a Jewish cemetery there at one point though how do you meet IRL slavs i know you guys are hiding out here somewhere but i dunno how to "legitimately" peek and cross in the europe border maybe next 5 years i guess
since i will come in "contact" with the mainland itself lemme know some good shit to do with the great firewall of china should i try something fun like probing the censored network with a cheap rooted phone? will anything from the outside even work at all and can i even phone home to the mini PC back in my room in manila?
now out of morbid curiosity what would happen if i type the infamous tiny man square in public wifi or use my issued tourist sim inside hotel for a harmless baidu search would i actually get trouble? inb4 OP delivers im not gonna risk my entire family for this stupid stunt 4chan though
apologies for the exact duplicate my last thread >>2740097 died and NEVER got a single reply funny how /trv/ is obsessed with hidden gems but yet no one seems interested here Roadtripanon back in action. Went around the great lakes in 2024 and now heading down to Myrtle Beach this summer. Looking to fill a couple gaps in my itinerary. Basic plan is to bounce from YMCAs to NARM eligible museums to dispersed campsites and vibe throughout. Is it true that all inclusive resorts don’t want single people or really single men staying and that’s why the price for one person in the same for 2? how much time do you have to spend in a place to actually get a sense of it? What is a good destination where I can get a hair transplant as well as a nice tutoring vacation with fun stuff to do? No turkey suggestions please >plan out a trip to Thailand
>everything is booked and all
>finally go and tell my family just so they know during the holiday parties
>sister starts laughing while I'm telling them
>ask her what the issue is
>she starts joking about how she never knew I was into ladyboys
>entire family starts laughing now
>everyone fucking thinks i'm a sex tourist wanting to meet ladyboys
I fucking hate all of you perverts who ruined tourism in SEA Tell me about Myanmar.
I saw some shit about it on Instagram the other day and, at least as far as Yangon (FKA Rangoon) is concerned, it looks fairly modern and developed. However, I've never seen or heard this country being discussed anywhere, I've never met anyone that's from there or been there, and this time last week I couldn't even tell you where it was on a map. 
I am a frog living in one of the most famous country-museum in the world, tourists come by the millions to admire what my ancestors built, and the French themselves take a certain pride in it. But these buildings are just a set, the hundreds of deeply rooted cultures of France are dead and buried. Today, the men who wander around this vast theatre set are nothing more than citizens of the world, with no connection whatsoever to the culture of their ancestors.
I've been to neighbouring countries and it's the same story. I went to Japan, believing I'd found the Grail far from Europe, and the situation was similar, though a little less severe. But that was ten years ago, so it must be much worse now.
I'm not just interested in food or monuments built centuries ago, which seems to be the definition of culture today. But culture has to be something that permeates every part of society and, most importantly, culture has to be alive and lived.
I need your help anons, I want to go to places where people and their land are one. I want to see cultures that have not yet been corrupted by the modern world. If you've been on such a trip, or have any ideas, I'd love to hear from you. 
How crazy would it be to visit India as a solo almost 30 y/o western man without too much travel experience?
I'm from the US northeast, I've been around the US and Europe on my own but nothing too crazy / never in really remote places where people don't speak English or I can't use my phone to get out of a bad spot quickly. I want to have a real adventure before family and responsibility makes it impossible to leave again until I'm old and decrepit.
Prospective itinerary:
>Oct 9-10: arrive in Delhi, sightsee
>Oct 11-12: fly to Varanesi, sightsee
>Oct 13-16: fly to Dehradun, explore Uttarakhand
>Oct 17-20: fly to Srinagar, explore Kashmir
>Oct 21-24: fly to Leh, explore Ladakh
>Oct 25: go home
Unfortunately my job won't let me take more than two consecutive weeks off. Would this be too overwhelming for a first time in India / Asia or is that all reddit nonsense and an able person would be able to figure it out. Anything to add or slash? Would the weather in the mountains be okay (reading mixed things about whether the Himalayas are really nice in autumn or crazy snowfall early) i have an autistic obsession with visiting north korea, and i don't think it will ever go away. i know i shouldn't go there and most likely never will yet i still have this obsession. anyone here been? or thought about it too? just something about it is so fascinating to my retarded ass Is it worthwhile to make use of these credit card promotions?
I've only ever used a debit card, but I'm 25 now and will start to need to build credit and while I was booking I saw this popup.
Is there a smart way to make use of these kinds of promotions? I've got about 3-5k budgeted for travels. Never been out of the USA. I know a little spanish, not much else. Any suggestions on where to go? >go to japan
>go to tokyo and kyoto
>film walking the shibuya scramble
>go to temples
>eat ichiran ramen
>drink at hub
>post pictures to social media
I'm having fun and you can't stop me My wife filled out what she knew using the online form filler, left the rest blank. I went and printed everything and I'm filling out spots left blank, she left my parents information blank so I filled out mother then father because it didn't specify an order. Looked over it, and SHE checked the male female boxes- with male first. What do I do besides get everything re-printed? I keeo reading that they don't care of you strike something and rewrite it but what about boxes? Do I just strikethrough and heavily X the correct sex? I just know she's going to call me a retard for not fully reading the form to see what she checked. I have no idea if I'm actually going to be in the mood for my plans when they finally come around or if I'm just going to have spent thousands of dollars to be depressed in a beautiful place. It makes me want to cancel the plans. how friendly is this place for tourists? Any Australian’s fled? If I can’t afford a house, I don’t see the point in being here. But on the other hand, our healthcare is decent and on a global level, I can make decent money here (despite being a rent cuck).
Perhaps the grass is always greener, but I’d like some alternatives. 
travel tips for working anons
not budget tips, but some tips to make the most out of your paid time offs
this is with european laws in mind so your mileage may vary
>ask chat gpt ideal ranges to take leave dor the calendar year of 2025, and exclude December 2025, to see which dates provide the best bang for your buck. for example, in my cunt, taking leave from, say, april 15 to may 11 is the best period as you save 4 days on national holidays
>try to fly back on a monday, and take until last friday. take a sick day that monday, you've been sick for 1-3 days since you arrived, who could have known?
now here is a spicy one
>inform your team and manager of your trip as early as you can, ask for their approval etc, but dont lodge it in the system. just keep bringing it up once every week when there's a month left, and when its time, set your mail to OoO, Teams etc to Away and wish everyone well
there is a 90% chance this will work and noone will ask any questions if you dont max out your vacations everyday and/or have been working there for some time. you just had some days lying around, if you decide to keep taking 2 week holidays once every 6 months or so. moderation is key ofc
any other white collar tips anons? Why are so many asian cities just like this massive beehive with people crammed in? They can be hyper organised and clean like tokyo or japan or a cyberpunk dystopia like hongkong or mumbai. What's the driving force and how can it be fixed? This is no way to live for humans https://www.rocairport.com/nonstop
These are all of the direct flights out of my airport. Which of these cities should I visit? Central asia thread, including

Rate my planned itinerary, please. I'm considering adding the Pamir highway through Gorno Badakhshan but I'm deathly afraid of altitude sickess (lived in lowlands my whole life and never been higher than 2000kms) I'm going to Japan and I came across this
give me a reason for going to Nagoya instead of all the other cities in Japan Is there anything to do in Ireland besides drink and look at fields? Should I move here? I'm in a unique situation where I can choose where I want to live without fear of job or housing. I have disposable income and don't need to be attached to an office. I heard Seattle became a shithole in the past 20-30 years and governor Inslee is destroying the state. I see crime go completely ignored. But plenty of people live and work here and it seems worthwhile. Should I live here? What are the pros, cons, FAQs, and misconceptions? Can you see Mount Rainier from the city or do you need to be in Tacoma or further east?
>inb4 rain Do you guys have any tips on how to live abroad without having any particular skills in Digital marketing expertise, analytics, or other online jobs? I want to earn a stable income and move out to south east Asia. In particular Thailand. I’ve been there a few times and found myself, as many others very comfortable and happy there.
I have friends who are dropshipping but I don’t know if that’s a thing for me. I have a regular job as a cook and not exactly the smartest guy, 
Trying to develop a plan to travel abroad. 3 of my last attempts to travel were destroyed cuz my parents had urgent bills to pay and I had to wipe out my travel to pay them. But now I got a plan and would like it critiqued.
Background: 32/male/American/115k salary/live with parents that have PoA of my finances.
Step 1: Go on /soc/ and /int/ to befriend cute foreign girls in Europe, south America, or Japan/Korea, or Australia
Step 2: Charm Foreign girls into letting me stay at their place and to give tours of their cunt
Step 3: create cash stash so my parents can't steal my money
Step 4: build cash by flipping cars or equipment on Facebook marketplace.
Step 5: get travel credit card to obtain travel promotion
Step 6: once 5k has been accrued book flight to girls cunt preferably several 5-6 months in advance to trip.
Step 7: 1 week before departure tell my parents I'll be gone for vacation and that the tickets have already been bought by a girl in foreign country
Step 8: enjoy my vacation
is this fool proof? I want to move to Los Angeles (I'm Irish) to pursue my career of working in film and the arts. Is there any effective way of doing this short of overstaying a tourist visa? I have a degree BA in anthropology and also experience working as an archaeologist. What are the chances I can get accepted on a permanent basis using these attributes? I also want to have the option of one day returning to Ireland briefly in case a relative gets sick or for a funeral or something before returning to the US which is why overstaying a tourist visa is not a great option for me, especially since it would require I work underhand or in fast food to earn a wage. A hold your hand tefl course with job placement assistance runs about $1500. Anybody here ever done one? I really really don't want to go back to the states. I don't have a degree. What places in Colorado are worth visiting? What single language opens up the most doors for travel? Or maybe 2-3 languages Will Syria be safe for tourism in the coming months? What can I await when going to these spots (in winter as in summer).
Want to do some nice hikes and to make nice scenic landscapes for /p/ To the anon that made previous thread, I'm still around to talk Shanghai vs Taipei in a janny-approved fashion if you need.
Alternatively, /china general/ Hey guys, I live in Central Europe and there's this special program that will get me a visa, so I can go for a year or so to Australia, where I can live and work
I want to try it out because I'm young (20yo) and I can speak English well. I also always wanted to visit Australia and try to live in a different culture.
My question is, if it's hard to find a decent job in Sydney as a foreigner how do Australians view people like me? Just how life could be for someone like me in Sydney in general.
I don't want to go there all naive, I want to have some real expectations. Is there anything I should know? Anybody here have experience skiing/snowboarding in India/other Himalayan countries? Where I am (Canada) most people go to Europe or Japan for a crazy ski vacation that's outside the norm. But recently I've heard more about skiing in India, and was wondering if anyone on here has had any experience with it, how expensive it was, and would they recommend it over other ski locations.
I understand that the infrastructure there might not be the best for groomed runs, park, and apres but I really don't care about any of that desu. The only thing I would be really concerned about infrastructure wise would be ski patrol availability and avalanche testing on the mountain as well as accomodations. I've heard that a lot of the resorts recommend that skiers are experienced with the backcountry and have avalanche gear+training What's the most out of place you've ever felt while traveling? Where to go to virtually guarantee never seeing another white person for a whole year? China's smaller cities? North Koreas small cities obviously off limits Is it possible for a borderline schizoid autist (aka social retard) to teach English in DEA. Travel YouTubers go to as many places as possible and there is no places left for most of us to discovery. Can you still find novelty and excitement in traveling? Anyone here interested in teaching at international schools? I don’t mean get a TEFL certificate online and moving to Thailand, but I mean teaching at schools that are for children of diplomats and business people in foreign countries.
All I know is you need a teaching certificate from your home country (I’m working on it) and three years of experience usually (school I’m subbing at says they’ll hire me either as a permanent building sub or assistant teacher).
Only thing I’m confused about is the International Baccalaureate. Can’t find much about how to teach it or if there’s a certificate you have to get for it. I’ve seen people even say that schools try to hire people with IB experience but the only way to get that is at IB schools, so it’s a catch-22. Anyone here have answers? This thread is only for the people that know how to Truly Travel, not for those retards that don't know what real travel is
No plebs What's the best ski resort for you? I had a blast at Val d'Isère. Why do people have this obsession with travelling?
I have visited more than 30 countries before i was 18 and never thought it was fulfilling or great or anything. Hi guys first time posting here, what's the best country for a solo guy that mostly wants nice beaches and warm weather to visit?
Is Thailand worth it or are better alternatives?
Is 2000€ for 2 weeks there in January and flying from Europe unrealistic?
Thanks. Next /twg/ meetup will be held in Barcade in Taipei sometime in November. Travelling when you’re ugly
Can you have a fun travel experience if you’re ugly? I don’t want to go to a hostel just to be ignored and have to go do a bunch of generic tourist stuff alone, rather than being involved in the real reason for travelling such as partying, hooking up, etc
How does one go about this? non reddit travel advice for nyc?
going there for 5 nights
i don't want to go to times square with all the spics. im sure there's plenty of stuff to do.
i dont mind niggers as long as they're the artsy jazz or rap types and not the fent subway addicts Greetings /trv/,
I'm going to Czech Republic next March. As I already know Prague my main focus would be in other cities. My planned route:
>Prague/ Kutna Hora 2 days (one for arrival and other for a day-trip to Kutna Hora)
>Pilsen/ Karlovy Vary 3 days (weekend), being one a day-trip to Karlovy
>Czesky Krumlov/ Czeske Budekovice 3 days, being one a day-trip to Budekovice
>Prague/ Hradec Kralove/ Pradubice 4 days.
It would be the St. Patrick's weekend, so I suppose there will be some event there, right?
>Ostrava 2 days
>Olomouc 2 days
>Brno 3 days (weekend)
Is Bohemian Paradise good at that time of the year? I may scrap Ostrava for it. I also accept other suggestions. In your experience, how do motorbikes and tuktuks treat pedestrians in SEA? I've never normally noticed any major issues except here in Siem Reap. They act like monkeys and try to hit you. They'll zigzag around in the road if you're crossing to scare you. They'll yell out if you impede them at all. I've never noticed this in Thailand, Vietnam or Malaysia. I would not recommend Cambodia on this basic. Anti social people Those who have emigrated out of their home countries: How do you rationalize/cope with being separated from your family?
I'm a 24 year-old American, and I want to live somewhere else (at least for a while if not permanently), but my parents are both quite old, and obviously I couldn't drag my brother along with me.
I have a lot of family that I love very much right where I am now, and I don't know if I could bear leaving behind without just being horribly homesick and anxious. But, I also really, really desire long-term traveling ever since I got a taste for it in high school, and I also feel that eventually I would rather raise my own family somewhere that isn't the USA.
I can't do anything about it now, but I've just been thinking about it a lot and I'm having trouble resolving this cognitive dissonance Kind of dejected with the West and have lived a pretty crazy life and my dopamine receptors are fried looking for an adventure/Sabbatical/run away whatever you want to call it.
Looking for new frontiers the wild west and new experiences could be spiritual, charity work, job, or just exploring. Not looking for any digital nomad shit. I'm fairly well travelled and often in non-tourist area's so safety/comfort isn't the biggest deal for me. I also have a decent amount of money saved up.
>In be for running away wont solve your problems
yeah I know I don't care I just want some adventure.
If you where to go on a Sabbatical/adventure/running away where would you go open to all suggestions
