Essentially, I’ve come to realise that Irish patriotism is a thin veneer, that when stripped away reveals a blackened, migrant filled remnant of its former glory. An idea that culture is only dialect, instead of race. Oh how their forefathers must grieve and writhe in irate wracked frustration at the struggles which happened for nowt.

And that’s omitting the Irish themselves. I have been to approximately 20 – 40 towns and villages of varying sizes, and from what I can discern it is a rarity to find an attractive Irishman. Many of them are overweight, bearing pudgy countenances and shambling gaits, on spindly legs that can barely support their overbearing, hulking frames. And the privileged few who actually are genuinely attractive, likely being descended from Viking, Anglo or Scottish settlers, constitute about five to ten percent of the population. A paltry sum for a white nation, where over half of the youth should be conventionally attractive.
The unfortunate truth about the Irish phenotype is doubly apparent, when considering that I’ve just came from Finland, the whitest and blondest nation I have ever graced my eyes upon. While I’m aware that many deluded and gullible poofs believe that the Finnish phenotype is Asiatic and Mongolian in nature, it is in fact the opposite. The vast majority of native Finns are objectively beautiful, especially when placed in contrast to the many ghastly abominations that reside in the Irish bogs and towns, existing for no other conceivable purpose than to traumatise tourists and ward off rapists from even stumbling upon the mere notion of laying with such fickle beasts.

Beowulf killed Grendel, who I have come to believe was and is an Irishman, and for good fucking reason.
And in spite of all of this you can’t even get a moment of solace away from it all. Everywhere is filled with these people, clamouring together, driving, constantly walking. There’s no peace and quiet, no serenity. It’s constant hustle and bustle. And they aren’t even funny Leprechaun midgets who talk a lot, they just walk aimlessly, barely talking, being bereft of any joy or humanity, like bleak, vapid, banal automatons. I’ve been travelling to the most backwater, regional areas, and even away from broader civilisation, surrounded by paddocks and wildlife, it’s still filled with cars, or towns of 2000 people absolutely chocka block full.
There’s a reason why so many Irishmen emigrated away from this gaudy land, it’s because the prospect of the New World is a land of bliss to these people. They would rather stave off crocodiles and live in a desert, than trek through another bog ridden wasteland, while having a Yank throw quarters at them for a photo.

There are positives though. The Churches are quite lovely, the nature is nice, if diminished by the creeping sensation of modernisation and I do appreciate the quaint little shops. To clarify, I have been avoiding major cities, such as Dublin, to attempt to get a genuine country feel, albeit to no avail, as every area seems to be a major tourist attraction.

Overall, Gerald of Wales was right.

Hello /trv/
I'm planning a trip to Carcasonne in France with a pal.
Thinking it might be better to also visit Toulouse while in the area. Maybe fly in and out of Toulouse, doing a night there at the beginning and end and getting a train to Carcasonne in the middle of the trip or something.
Anyone know anything about either destination?
How about nightlife in the area - which one is better to be in at the weekend?
Also interested in medieval history an shiet, read a bit about the Cathars and shit like that but already been to Avignon and Arles so a bit further West this time - any good tourism pointers in the area appreciated.

And in general - how does he keep getting away with it?

Whatever your opinion on Bald is you have to admit the mad lad has some balls.
The crazy bloke gives zero fucks, pulling out a camera and filming in front of a million spics who could stab and rob him at any time.
He even talks to them like they're buddies or something, WTF. Extraverts have it so easy.
I honestly envy his nonchalant attitude, I would never try this shit in my life.

Think about it, if you're a husky white able-bodied gringo with a UK passport, you'd probably be seen as wealthy and thus have the resources to help people get to the destination. If you prove yourself to be an asset and not a liability, then no one is going to fuck with you. The only sketchy part was him continuing to film people who clearly did not want to be filmed, but I think it wouldn't matter I guess, as long as he doesn't record the trafficking gang's operations. Also, it benefits the migrants in a way optically to be shown in a documentary of sorts showcasing the hardships of illegal immigration, so it can gain sympathy for the migrants and be a real tear-jerker for people up north. He probably paid off some shady guys in order to do this, which probably wasn't much for Bald as it is for the migrants. The traffickers usually also take the migrants passports too and basically have to comply with whatever they want because they know they are desperate. And if you don't, you will end up stranded/dead. Bald can just pay the fees and move on. Those who can't pay will have to do quid pro quos and get themselves entangled with gang shit. The Darién Gap is also a wild west for criminals so just think about all the miscreants that are lurking in those woods.

>>2645300
Do you know what projection is? It's when you presume someone is as insecure about something as you are. Clearly Bald is not insecure about it, as it's his moniker. You clearly are and desperately trying to fight off your thinning hairline like an anxious tranny taking finasteride and becoming chemically castrated in the process. God forbid you ever lose your hair. Grow the fuck up.

I recommend taking the route through TN then north on I-81. Much more scenic overall. I'd stop by the Smokeys for a day hike. The nearby town of Gatlinburg, TN is quite popular for tourism. Not my thing, but you might enjoy it. You could later stop by the hiker town of Damascus, VA and rent a cheap bike/shuttle and cycle the Virginia Creeper trail (almost entirely a gentle downhill coast, not physically demanding at all). I know a lot about outdoor recreation in Southern Appalachia. Feel free to ask any questions.

My buddy and I are planning a 1.5 week holiday to visit Oslo, Stockholm, Copenhagen, and Reykjavik this summer, thinking about spending 3 days in the first two, 2 days in Copenhagen, and then an afternoon and overnight in Reykjavik. We're both interested in history and cool museums. I'm suggesting that we stay in hostels, since they're cheap and pretty friendly from my experience in the Benelux. Any recommendations for places to go, stay, or eat at?
>Oslo
Viking Ship Museum, Akershus Fortress, Frognerseteren, Kon-tiki and Fram Museums
>Stockholm
Djurgarden + Museums, all the stuff in Gamla Stan, the Hornstulls Strand
>Copenhavn
Rosenborg Castle, Kastellet, Christiansborg Slot, Stroget Street
>Reykjavik
Viking Settlement Exhibit, and the downtown walking area, not enough time for a driving tour

On that topic, which language has the most cognates across the group?

I almost spit my coffee out when I read Hornstulls strand. Do not go there unless it's a really nice day and you want to go for a swim nearby.

I literally live on that street and it's nothing to see or visit. Some shitty food trucks and a few tables of garbage being sold. Insanely underwhelming if you've ever been to any type of market anywhere in the world.

Take a stroll around and in Södermalm though. It's nice in the summer. Långholmen is pretty. Rent a kayak there and see the city from the water. Pass by the market if you want but do not make it your destination.

>>2643541
You shouldn't stay in the big cities
Use the extensive public transport and get a hotel near nature somwhere
>>
>>2645006
Also if it's 1.5 weeks you should focus on one country instead of all of them, unless you're planning on being somewhere close to the borders.
Choose a specific region, for example Western Northern, then create a route of hotels and places to visit instead of jumping from city-to-city that way

just do norway and iceland. get the fuck out of the cities what the fuck are you doing

>the Hornstulls Strand
yep, same. it's comfy definitely but something to go on a if you're a local and are bored on a weekend day. or if you're staying longer than a couple of days.
>eating
i'm happy to help if you want to be more specific? local? cheap/expensive?
>museums
if you still want to visit some there's Stockholm City museum near Slussen and the Nobel Prize museum in Gamla Stan. The city museum is relatively small but good if you're interesting more of the history of Stockholm and its inhabitants through the years. I haven't been to the Nobel prize museum.

Congrats - that's really about it. Been 3/4 times; it's chill enough when you go outside of the busy times (Mardi Gras, Voodoo Fest, etc.), but really it's the best the first couple of times. Overall, you've hit all the culinary points - in my opinion, New Orleans food sucks anyway. But Willie Mae's is awesome, however it is temporarily closed because of a fire, so you're out of luck there. Honestly, by the end of the trip I just end up haning out a Harrah's and gambling.

I did NOLA recently - if you have time, hit Frenchman at night, Royal + maybe Tulane's campus, which is very beautiful. Definitely hit City Park if the weather is nice, it's amazing and well worth the drive or bicycle. A ferry ride to Algiers is pretty cool too, try to hit an actual voodoo shop too, there's some good ones outside of the Quarter. Wanted to do the wwii museum but ran out of time, not sure if it's worth it.

I was underwhelmed with the food too and found prices even at "cheap" places to be ridiculous. Anything outside of bourbon + a shrimp poboy is my rec. I was underwhelmed with the rest of the good.

I studied abroad in Korea for a semester and, while I had a great time and made a ton of good friends, it was more in spite of the location rather than because of it. It really is just a much smaller and shittier japan filled with too many vapid, insecure people. If you're into nightlife the clubs are pretty shit and if you're more into nature and architecture there's practically nothing worthwhile. Only thing I'd recommend is a temple stay, 내소사 is in some mountains by the sea and is really beautiful. 20 days sounds like way too many, you can get to anywhere in the country in under three hours so you could easily see every single worthwhile thing in under a week.

I never understood why people get annoyed by tourist or feel like some countries get 'invaded' by tourist until I went to Ubud in Bali. For such a small town in the middle of the rainforest, there were so many fucking white people (and I'm white). So many people that you couldn't even walk on the sidewalk. Or find a place to eat. Or drive. And because it's cheap, you get the worst tourists (AKA bums and idiots) mixed in. I would never go back.

Do you bring family photos with you on your travels? I would be beyond uncomfortable with this.

I live in Cheyenne but I'm moving to bigger cities soon. Wind, snow, cold, and "bad" weather are great filters that keep The Elements out of here. I'm guessing state income tax is fixed to your employer so that won't matter here. This town is also a capital but not really a city (64k), and is 10 mi from the CO border and 100 mi from Denver international. I think this would be a great FI/RE and semi retirement place to live in, but it's not for me who never scored a telework opportunity at all, and has to PCS for better grades.

I just got back from Boulder last night and I was definitely given the strange eye by more than 2 people there, despite being clean shaven, simply dressed, and white. Some of the mountain resort, expensive towns are unfriendly but have more going on for their jail bait kids.
