paTTTaya general 3: the last great American TTT chad edition. What will happen to TTT bro in his last few weeks in Thailand and possibly Earth?
>>2129308WHAT IS THE NAME OF THE SCHOOL Thanks
>>2129322>fuck tattooed whores and then we cuddle while my creampie settles in their pussy :3>turn 40 and can't drink a soda without getting dizzy because of muh convenience.Only children drink soda. I mean if I have a mixed drink yea, but I don’t just sit at home and go “yea I’ll drink some coke.” Water only
imagine caring this much about some dude cooming his savings away in thailand, lmaovaxxcattle are going INSANE
>>2129174plz dox yourself, we are interested why u are running a months long smear and hate campaign against an experienced coomer who doesn't have any political, social, or economic significance. What are u and your group gaining out of your months of hate work? are u a leftard? tranny? muzzi? kike? police?
>>2129482He’s a grumbler on his last legs. He used to leave these attempts at a scathing excoriation of my larping but then the proof came out and his edge became blunted. He resorted to a low-energy criticism of me not knowing what I’m talking about ect and hence he was dubbed the grumbler. I think there’s more than one but they have a distinct posting style
>>2129436>easyMaybe, all the Foreign friends I have are people I've met in circumstance, 99% of them I really didn't get along with. Local friends I'm still friends with are pure chance>>2129430Being a drinker really helps, I have a small group of local friends I met by pure chance lost in a forest in Hiep Binh Phuoc who invited me to drink. The problem I found with finding people to hang out with in VN is there is such a huge gap between very straight edge - drinkers/card player types - scum of the earth.
>>2129461Gamblers in Vietnam are trouble and should be avoided at all costs. If that's what you mean buy card players.
>>2129494They bet on lucky numbers and than get sucked into a bunch a debt they owe to the mob.
>>2129494Gamblers are trouble but a perfect middle ground. Card players are the same people who beat heroin addicts who try to scum up their street while still being accepted by the locals.>>2129495There are two Gils?
>>2129376>not picking up what I'm laying down>ngmi>ywnbaw
How do I cope with the fact that I loved growing up in this place but it's been ruined by big tech and progressive politicians? There's nowhere else to go like it. Portland has always sucked in my opinion - and has the same stuff going on, Spokane is being flooded with Californians like Idaho is and also has had a massive CoL spike.I went to the Midwest years ago for work, intending to return to the PNW when I could, but it seems to be a lost cause now. At least I can afford a house out here, but I feel homesick all the time.
this is what reality has been for every major US urban area since the 80s. globalization reached Cascadia last, but everyone else has already seen their city centers go to shit and soulless remote tech jobs take over. you can't expect a prosperous coastal city to stay nice and underpopulated forever, especially being that close to hispanic territory.
Northwest Montana, if you don’t mind being one of those people. I think PNWers would also like New England and the Great Lakes. As for how to cope, I don’t really know what to tell you. It’s not just Seattle. Every city in the United States is significantly worse than it used to be in some respect and there are very few decent cities left.
I'm glad I grew up in small town USA, I can always return to this shithole or go stay in another shithole that's not mine
I just found out I have to move to either Pittsburgh or Phoenix at the end of the year. Which one should I choose?>26 >Male>Single>Work remotely>Into cycling, mountain biking and tennis>Don’t drink >Lean conservative>Open to day trips, local traveling, etc >Prefer to live in a walkable area if possibleBudget is about $1300/mo. Which would you recommend?
>>2127281You're choosing between freezing cold where you can only bike maybe 4 months of the year, or burning hot where you can only bike at night. Both places are more expensive than $1300 a month unless you're living in the literal ghettoest part of the city, and probably with a roommate.
>>2129311You can easily bike 7-8 months a year in Pittsburgh you fucking gaping vag
If you can deal with 4ish months out of the year of heat, PHX is fine to bike in.
>>2127281Phoenix, no question about.
>>2129325This doesn’t account for how many days or rain or snow, which there are many in Pittsburgh. You definitely do not get 8 months per year. 6 maybe.
>>2129281don't only look for places - look for special times of year.holy week can be impressive in many places, spain looks cool
Vashon Island, Washington for the Eastern Orthodox church there.Bridgetown Church, Portland OregonTacoma has a lot of churches.
>>2129281Lourdes in the south of france is a place of pilgrimage, and Medjugorje in bosnia is one too. Look up famous pilgrimage sites, they basically become consumed with pretty devout religous 'tourists' and the local economy and people becomes orientated around religous people. Those are christain places, though I guess places like mecca and varanassi are examples of more famous, non-christian places.
you could live laugh love as you celebrate Holi in India
I’ve always wanted to go to Tibet.
hello /trv/,I have seen many threads over the past months about English speakers in places like the USA/UK/AUS/NZ/IE looking to emigrate from their country (and still make a living). An option often discussed is TEFL, or teaching english as a foreign language. I, too, am looking at getting TEFL-certified and teaching abroad.This will be the thread about all things TEFL. Share stories, advice, questions, anecdotes, corona-era info, drunken escapades, anything. Let's centralize all current discussion on this complex topic in one thread for the sake of convenience.
Low key how easy is it to bang your students if teaching in thailand
>>2129365How do you save $80K in Korea over two years? Don't they all get paid like $30k a year?
>>2129440If you're asking this, its hard as shit and you're never going to get a crumb of pussy anywhere you go
>>2129440I wait until they graduate, they add me on fb while still in high school and after they graduate either they start trying to be my "friend" or I start messaging them in the guise of being interested in their future prospects. It's not for the inexperienced as thai girls love to screenshot conversations, so you really have to test the waters first and be aware that whatever you type could be shared, so I always try to get to physical meetings quickly if they are biting. I've also straight up had some asking me.to help them with "college tuition" or "helping buy books" or "private english lesson" and for those my response is "we can talk about it over some lunch" which usually ends with them on my bed. For kicks and giggles I sometimes have them wear their old uniforms while banging them. I know some guys and local thai teachers that have secret relationships going on with girls during school, but to me its not worth the risk.Pic related a former student that now works at some night club for rich koreans.But I got her for the price of a dinner.
>>2129297>EU (as their are already substantial populations of English speakers, strict EU hiring and education requirements, etc.)So how do Americans get teaching jobs in the EU? I know it happens and they don’t have English degrees.
How likely is this stat dec to get me an exemption on the basis that I want to be away for more than 3 months? I'll submit all the paperwork to prove the things I have mentioned, too.Not having the voooooxine so don't suggest that.
>>2129449>paying hundreds of bucks because you are scared to death of something free and safe

>>2129471The virgin antivaxxer from /pol/ got lost again. This board is only for people who leave their basements.
>>2129473been riding around thailand all year with my /biz/made 6 figures, but keep projecting tranny LOL
>>2129460go back to facebook with your boomer memes faggot
>Negates the need to ever go travelling again
Yeah MSFS is amazing. I spent the money I would have used on my last vacation on a new gaming PC that plays this game at max settings and it was well worth it. Doesn't exactly negate the need to ever travel, but, it actually opens up a whole new aspect that you usually can't see in real traveling.
>>2127630you probably alsp believe porn negates the need to have sex. everything about your life is cope.
According to the World Bank's International Comparison Program (2017), Egypt is the cheapest country in the world regarding Actual Individual Consumption, at 25% of the world average.It's also the cheapest for Food and Non-alcoholic Beverages, at 50%; for Transport, at 32%; and for Restaurant and Hotels, at 26%. Ukraine is the second cheapest country in the world btw, at 32% Actual Individual Consumption. It's the cheapest country in the world when it comes to Alcoholic Beverages, Tobacco and Narcotics, at 31%.The other countries that make up the top 10 are Kyrgyzstan, Sudan, Azerbaijan, Tajikistan, Myanmar, Sierra Leone, Belarus and Nepal. The next 10 countries on the Restaurant and Hotels ranking are Sudan, Nepal, Tanzania, Ukraine, Madagascar, Ethiopia, Guinea, Bhutan, Algeria and Vietnam.https://www.worldbank.org/en/news/slideshow/2020/10/20/pli-chart2Do these metrics surprise you? What are your experiences traveling to these places? Is Egypt really the ultimate cheap traveling destination?
>>2127726Here's housing in Asia. Korea surprisingly below the world's average. Fun-fact: in Egypt (the cheapest) you'd spend 3,75% as much in Housing and Bills when compared to Switzerland (the most expensive).
I moved to Ukraine from America and yes, it is basically next to free to live here in smaller villages. Kyiv is a bit more expensive with an average local income of $630/month. Any anons who want to contact me about moving to Ukraine are welcome to do so. Kek#8796 on Discord. I have helped a bunch of anons from /soc/ and /pol/ move here.
>>2129324>from /soc/ and /pol/literally 4cheddit
>>2129324Is Odessa very expensive? And is the weather bearable? Are you fucked job-wise if you don't have remote work? How much would it cost to open a KFC franchise or something like that? Do ukrainians even like that shit or can afford it?
>>2129324I sent you a pm but you gotta add me as a friend
based gents...every aussie expat i have. met has been based and so much more pleasant and NON BRAINWASHED unlike regular aussiesi see two ways we go when we are older gentsA- Expat or B- stay in australia>>option a ) fellas when i was in kuala lumpur before the coof you could see men in their 30s-60s with their foreign wives/gfs eating and shopping peacefullycombine this with cheaper living expenses, status boost of being an expat and that is the way I reckon i'll be going when i'm older,vs.>>Option b) when u see the alternative of being a typical 40s+ normie in australia in peak time traffic for an hour to work for shekelstein in order to pay a mortgage for a subruban overpriced home with a fat ex-hoe wife and a bastard brat kekits a no brainer if you are a smart young man accomualte funds and assets in australia then make the permanent move out of the nanny state shithole that hates men
Feeling so massively anxious and nervous about my december trip to the UK. Just worried all of a sudden aus/uk will just say "lockdown again sorry :)"Probably being a little too anxious but that feeling won't be gone until the moment I pass through customs at heathrow
>>2129357ill get out of here as soon as i see a way to get out unvaxxed fuck this shithole
>>2129031based, tell us about your experience cobba,im setting my affairs up to go next year
>>2129474Missus is from Sweden, got a residence permit late last year but had to tie up loose ends to leave in Feb. Literally haven't thought about COVID at all while I've been here and considering how much people make fun of Sweden, it's way less cucked than Aus.
>>2122022Literally blackshirts
As my country is real shit for dating in a traditional manner, acquiring a foreign wife peaked my interest. I'm a 182cm average-looking European man (German) in my early 20s and would like to find a wife that is:>preferably Christian (or easily convertable) >loyal, not a whore>White or White-adjacent (fair-skinned MENAs/Latinos) or East Asian (no jungle monkeys please)>a VirginI'm absolutely open to extensively learn a language beforehand. Are there any countries with women that would fulfill this criteria and may be open to marry a Westerner?
>>2121883>a virginyou completely fucked your entire wishlist, good luck
>>2122225It's a shame I've seen less of that ever since the "anti racism" faggotry become a thing, during Trumps years but even more-so after george floyd. They probably still deny blacks, but less post no black men just to avoid being painted as racist
>>2126024>make one with a cisgendered female.You mean: a normal woman.
>>2129458No I mean cisgendered female faggot.
>>2129458Yes that's what I mean but I'm half pc half racist, apparently. The whole LGBT black lives matter shit is literally the cartel doing it. The same groups run in heavy drug circles. You don't see trannies in rural areas, just in high population areas with large adult and drug scenes. I see it infiltrate social media for teens all the time. There was a shitload of it on Tumblr and back in the Myspace days. Nobody was trans but online everyone was, but they were also super anti-racist which pretty much meant white guilt and black supremacists.
I like Greek history and writers a lot and really wish to visit. Especially keen to see historic sites but I want to see a variety of its beauties. Want to visit Cyprus as well since the culture is similar I imagine and it looks beautiful from what I've seen. Any Greek bros know any lesser known things to do/see? Any other tips? I'm a white 24 yr old male for reference.
BTW i see a lot of amerifat tourists here lately, couldn't you faggots come all at once in the summer so we won't have to bear with your fatness? Why are you so fucking fat geez and it's all dudes, zero latinas so far
>>2129146I am dreaming of one day escaping Australia to Greece, Italy, albania, somewhere like that, maybe even georgia or something. Not only do I really like that part of the world for it's history and culture, but it's so fucking cheap in comparison. Every single thing I read just keeps telling me there is literally no reason to not emigrate there. I still got a few years before I can even think about doing it, really, but it's crazy that even Americans notice the same thing. Quality of life improved, but the cost stayed low in so many countries...
Oh neat. Planning on going this May. Also obserbing thread.
Which island/city is best to live in for burgers or foreigners in general?
>>2127972Just check where the ferrys go from and book accomadation on the next island the day before. A lot of the islands have different feels to them and you might enjoy a couple of days at a quiet one before a couple of days at a busy one.My favourite place has been Sifnos, but I also want to get to Serifos and Siros next time
If you are an average and fit white guy you’ll definitely kill in Thailand. There are so many ugly dudes(fat, old, balding, and ugly) here and your competition is none, yeah they are richer than you but all Americans are rich in Thailand.
>>2129444not him but that's how it goes in korea
>>2129469>”all the white guys I saw in Korea got so mad when they saw me, a 6ft Korean, out with sexy white girls”>”sorry, but I think the days of just showing up and being white are over guys. You had your day in the sun but kpop and the “Oppas” are taking over>”I’ll be enjoying those hot white girls that come to Korea and you can seethe”
>>2129447Two reasons1. White guys aren't used to female attention or being treated nicely from females, because white western women are such bitches. Therefore its easy for them to get tricked into thinking they've found a lovely amazing reasonably cute girl (who they couldnt get in the west) but really its just the first korean girl to like them and being korean or asian they are sweeter to men2. The hot asian women don't go for foreigners because they already have enough attention from asian men. Typically people only date outside their group or race if things aren't going too well for them, so its average asian women who chase foreigners.Also, whats hot in Asia isnt always whats hot to white guys, only if you stay there too long will your standards adjust to like the local taste, but when you arrive you probably like square jawed stock thicc girls rather than the pointy faced slim girls the locals like.
>>2128514>I know what my problem is. I still like teen/early twenties women and I'm slowly approaching 40.dude my dad is 70 and still likes women in their 20s. It never changes. Just get an asian women whose into all the beauty crap and will look young and fresh until her menopause, hopefully by then you're too old and spent to care
>>2128514>I know what my problem is. I still like teen/early twenties women and I'm slowly approaching 40Like literally every guy everPeak fertile women are physically attractive, while barren unfertile women are not. That's just how it works. The other way around nature is less harsh because guys can conceive children well into their 60's
Digital Nomad general.Let's talk about things you can do to drop out of the rat race, live the simple life, and ideal locations for it.Locations with fairly low CoL ideal for working at home:>Bangkok, Thailand>Chiang Mai, Thailand>Philippines>Saigon/HCMC, Vietnam>CambodiaWays to earn passive income, or be your own boss:>freelance writingComment too long.

>>2129290>assaulted by mobs of private security for being on the same block as them and then robbed/raped by a homeless personI can see that, unlike me, you have never actually lived in either Fort Lee of Edgewater. The crime rate is very low because you have to have money to live there. For that other guy, $180k will allow you to live very comfortably, especially if you're a shut-in, but you'd also have the city close by if you ever wanted to go there.You must be thinking that every city in NJ is the same thing. Homeless people? I lived there for years and never saw any homeless. I mean, they might have been there, but I just never saw them in the street.
>>2129301I used to work in Newark and Egg Harbor Township. It's nothing like the rest of America. You might not notice the homeless there but I do because they're easy to spot for me. Yeah, there's some rich areas there but there's a ton of ghetto if you go closer to the industrial areas. Maybe you're a shut-in living downtown somewhere and are clueless to the reality around you, but it's there.
Ukraine. Ukraine. Ukraine. 2nd lowest cost of living in the world. White easy women. Some English is spoken by most people under 30. Great internet. This place is fucking paradise. I have been helping /soc/ and /pol/ move here for months now. Many guys have come already and more keep coming. Anyone interested or with questions should contact me on Discord Kek#8796 or Telegram @kingofkyiv
Can you go to a country with very strict residency permits, but low cost of living, like for instance Argentina, taking a 3 month visa.... and then once you are there you become online trader freelancer... and tadaaa you are now a working resident? Does that work, or they kick you out for not working for a local company?Asking for a friend
>>2129306>Newark Newark is garbage compared to Fort Lee and Edgewater. I'm saying that the guy should live in a nice, upscale place. Go compare the median income for residents between those cities and you'll see what I mean.It sounds like you've been living in the worst parts of New Jersey and now you believe that the entire state is like Newark. There are better cities out there in this state. You just have to look for them. I'm not saying Fort Lee in particular is all pristine, but it's way better than Newark.Also, there are no "industrial" areas of Fort Lee and Edgewater. Most of the industrial buildings that used to exist long ago were torn down to build high rise condos.
