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/

Thai vendors are called "food on order," which means you can order the vendor or the cook to use pig fat oil and not put MSG, or sugar, into your food. If you are so autistic about seed oil, carbs, or any healthy things, you can buy a cheap Thai brand of air fryer and buy only certified organic veggies at a Lotus or Big C mall. And those are still a lot cheaper than US farm products.
>>2632189
You can watch honest reviews from channels like Small Brained American; basically, avoid deep-fried vendors. Though I think Springroll vendors are quite safe,.

Looking for tips.

I'm from Wyoming, US, and I want to go to Russia and see how their things are. I speak English, obviously, and I can speak/read Russian at a childish level.

I want to go to Russia and look around. See how they do it. Not planning on moving there, I've saved up enough money to go there and back, but I've never been on a trip like this so I'm looking for advice.

Where to? Moscow? St. Petersburg? Somewhere else?

I want to spend a few weeks, maybe a few months there. No specific goals. Things are already in motion, it's happening soon.

Anything in particular I should know? Never traveled internationally before. Never traveled internationally before. I went to Canada on accident one time, but that's it.

Why do autistic, neckbeard Thaiboos feel the need to correct every single little thing about their scammy tourist trap of a country? And they sound so proud while they do it too.

Why can't Chinese people function in grocery stores? I've noticed it's generally the older folks and the younger changs understand personal space and social norms. But these older Chinese my GOD they send me into a rage. Block the whole fucking isle. Walk and then just STOP, zero fucking awareness of who or what is around them. Ohh I'm just an old lady tee hee silly me I don't know what's going on!!! And then they sneakily try and push in the queue KNOWING EXACTLY what they're doing. What the fuck is wrong with them? Are they racist? Do they act like this in China? They are so fucking rude!
>>
>>2632204
Yeah it’s infuriating. Especially at airports. They’ll block the walking escalator so no one can pass them. Also have experience them trying to cut in line as well. It’s not just Chinese but boomer behavior on these trips are also infuriating. Clueless boomers holding up plane boarding because they can’t fit their overlarge carry on in the overhead bins. Also when people try to cut in front of people as everyone is unboarding the plane makes me seethe. Retard families who put their kids in the wrong seat and act surprised when confronted.

Anyone else do this? Just booked a month long trip and I'm already thinking about the next trip I'm going to take after that. Feels like I can't stay in the moment and am always looking forward to the next trip, as if the planning process is part of the fun
>>
>>2632203
good for you. i struggle at the planning part

So I was thinking on visiting Taiwan later this year, I'm researching but to be honest apart from Taipei I'm struggling to find anything interesting.

It looks a bit soulless, which it shouldn't, but that's the feeling I'm getting.

For the record I've already been to some other SEA countries (Thailand, Cambodia and Myanmar) and to Japan. Those countries seem much more appealing to me.

Maybe I'm just and idiot, but I'd like to know your thoughts and experiences of the country.

If you live in Taipei you can make a day trip out of basically anywhere on the island. It's really not that big.

I'm looking to do a daytrip to Beitoujiao trail , then Jufen and Shifen. Is this feasible in one day? what is the best combination of busses or trains to i take? want to leave from taipei early like 6am
>>
>>2632059
Objectively, it's a good destination because it's probably 85% as nice as Japan but twice as affordable. I can see how if you've spent time in Japan/Korea then many of Taiwan's charms would be dulled. The neomodern kitsch on display everywhere (in Tainan in particular) might fall flat. But it's worth appreciating the island for what it is, not in comparison to somewhere else. Personally, I'm an incurable Sinaboo, and found delights around every corner. I don't think you could call it 'soulless' by any reasonable standard.
What makes it stand out for me is the outdoor opportunities; I've never had my ass kicked so hard by a hike or felt so isolated in pristine nature; hard to believe anywhere in east Asia still has that feeling. Top-tier snorkeling, too.

>>2632131
Honestly you couldn't do better than a comfy neighborhood of Taipei. I also fell in love with a little town called Yuli on the eastern side. Idyllic location with a good cat cafe.

>>2632173
You can rent them in most cities. I think I read in the big western cities they want to see a motorbike endorsement on your IDP but other places no one cares. Driving a scooter up Taroku was probably in my top 3 travel experiences ever.

going to bali soon with three pinay chicks
didn't wanna make a new thread but
we're there for 11 days, and my main chick thinks it'd be a good idea to switch airbnb half way through to "see more things"
but it's bali lmao, and then we're going to have to lug our shit through the city and do they check in dance again. I'm thinking we just stay at a nice villa and do day trips

otherwise, we could stay 7 nights at an airbnb and three at a hotel or something.
any thoughts?

You could’ve brought them to Boracay for much cheaper
>>
>>2632162
Have they left the country before successfully? I take it you're fully aware of the 'offloading of pinay' risk?, if not, read up on it, and as the other anon said, go to Boracay.

How do young people travel constantly? Some of them aren't from a rich family so how?

I'm an accountant making $80k working fully remotely, I can technically take as many days off as I want as long as I reach a pretty reasonable number of billable hours for the year (1400).

I would say Chicago for late summer as someone who lived there; the beaches, the river, the parks are all beautiful and it’s great weather along with a great music scene. Underrated areas are Northerly Island Park, Free 4th floor deck at Willis Tower, Chicago Botanical Garden (outside the city), and the free yoga at Navy Pier on Tuesdays and fireworks on Saturdays

Fall; go to Boston can get a day trip and watch the leaves turn, plus much more history

DC is a pretty cool city to visit.
>Good food scene
>Decent nightlife if you're into that
>Lots of neat museums that are (mostly) free.
Smithsonian museums are all free and you can easily eat up a couple days on just those. Spy Museum costs money but still worth a visit.
Just avoid the green line on the metro (subway) at night and you'll be fine.

Redpill me on Flushing Chinatown in Queens, NYC

I want to travel but not go to far. I live in upstate NY so I wouldn’t even be leaving the state.

All I know is that it’s the biggest Chinatown in the US now. And street view on Google Maps make it look comfy.

I’ve seen people that are worried it’s being gentrified by rich Chinese nationals. A lot of rich people in China are scared of getting prosecuted by the CCP and so they get real estate in other countries as a place to store their money and a getaway.

It’s a huge problem in Canada.

Your looks aren’t really in jeopardy at 30 unless you’re significantly balding (and do nothing about it), are a fat sack of shit, and/or you eat goyslop constantly and let the sun cook you alive. However
>jaded and globohomo
That is realistic
>stunted career prospects
Travel first then go to college, and I mean do it for at least 1-2 years. By that time you should be good to go. Your career prospects are only stunted if you’re doing something like international finance

I’ve never had a career so idgaf about fucking off for a year at a time
