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/

Nobody ever talks about these countries. Are they shit, hidden gems, or just kind of unremarkable? A cursory glance makes me think they're good for landscape tourism and perhaps history but have shit public transport and sketchy car hire. Otherwise, unspoiled by mass tourism.

What are your experiences with this forgotten corner of the Balkans, anons?

He's a Russian and he's butthurt that they don't take Ruples in Croatia or Slovenia. You can see why when $1 in the US is 92 Ruples. Their average salary is only half the EU average and 1/3 of what Americans make. When the Russians exchange their cash, they end up spending a months salary just for a family to eat out one night in Dubrovnik.

Skip miami, disney world, and disney land, and cut down your time in Vegas. Then I’d say you’re looking fairly solid.

>>2650897
Most souless itinerary I've ever seen. You are an honorary American.
>>
I've lived on the east and west coast of the US and done all that shit a million times. Here's my take, Miami is overpriced and filled with brown people. Pick another beach. Clearwater, Destin, Palm Beach, all much nicer. Second, don't spend 3 days in Disney World. As an adult, 2 is the max. One day in the magic Kingdom and one day in Epcot. Third, I love Vegas, but it's hell in the summer. You have never experienced anything like the summer heat in Vegas. You literally cannot be outside during the day. If it were me, I would fly into Orange County California and do Newport Beach, Laguna Beach, Huntington Beach and maybe drive up to LA for one day to see the Santa Monica Pier, The Getty Museum and Griffith Park to take pics of the Hollywood sign. Don't stay in LA and don't plan on spending more than a day there.

Also, don't do Philadelphia. It's an absolute crime-ridden shithole. The people who live there are the most unfriendly pieces of human garbage you will ever meet. They have to be to survive in that cesspool.

bro shut up, we (the non-tourist trap places) don't *WANT* a bunch of tourists and immigrants, let them stay to the stereotypical places and leave the rest of us alone.

Going to travel there in July with my parents and brother for my pa's 60th birthday. Any recommendations?

Vienna is alright but the alps are the best part of Austria. Your dad is in good enough shape to hike? Go to Salzkammergut or Tirol and go check out some alms and eat traditional alpine food and drink beer in truly picturesque landscapes.

If he isn't very mobile, even just driving through the alps is amazing. Try the Großglockner Hochalpenstraße

The fact he didn't mention it was packed with Chinese people would in fact mean he himself is Chinese. Hence his gf having a weak stomach and car sick. Also being bored surrounded mountains? yeah, that's a you problem.

>>2650532
+1 for driving through the Alps and checking out villages.

>>2650690
It's definitely more expensive than Slovenia or Czech, but not as bad as Switzerland. You get really spoiled drinking giant beers in Czech for less than 2 euros. It doesn't taste as good when they cost 3 times as much in Austria or 5 times as much in Swiss.

I Live in Morocco and i'm planing to go travel to a city but i don't wanna stay at an hotel, I kind of want to just stay outdoors and sleep somewhere where people will not notice me or even thugs too. I kind of want to experience something new, Like just be away from my city, I cannot afford a cheap hotel but i can travel.
My Country is known for having thugs, criminals and robbers at night, But still I kind of want a good advice from someone who had done that or even someone from my country

no problem, I don't know if they have parks there or not, but yeah, nature is your friend, seems safer and more clean than sleeping on concrete somewhere
if it takes you a little while to get to your camp spot that's better

Hi, Texan here who's never been to the Northeast. How long should I budget for a trip to Boston?
So far, idea is to
1. Fly in on Friday evening and rent a car - sleep in Concord.
2. Saturday drive to White Mountain National Forest and hike around - sleep in Augusta. Should I do Green Mountain and drive to Montpelier instead before driving to Augusta?
3. Sunday drive along the Maine coast to Bangor and back to Boston - sleep in Boston Sunday night. What's there to see on the Maine coast? I only know about the lobster rolls but IDK if summer is their season
4. Monday drive to Cape Cod (again, any specifics to check out?) and take the ferry to Martha's Vineyard, bike around since it'll probably be super pleasant. Drive back and return the car on Monday night - again, sleep in Boston Monday night.
5. Explore Boston and Cambridge Tuesday and Wednesday all day - again, any specifics I should check out?
6. Fly back on Thursday morning.

Would appreciate any pointers whether this is even a feasible trip plan because I have zero frame of reference on distances in the Northeast.

What's there to do in Wiscasset other than the Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens? If I wanted to see flat flowerscapes, I can visit the Dallas arboretum which is probably grander. I want to see mountains and cool small towns

I know what you're seeing on Google maps right now but you're seriously underestimating traffic in New England in the summer and fall. I dunno, I've just never heard of someone doing a day trip to Acadia. A long weekend, maybe. 4 nights to a week is more common.

If you're a hiking family and want to see Acadia why not just fly right into Bar Harbor or Portland and focus on Maine? New England is small and you're coming from pretty far away, I get it, but people go to Maine for weeks at a time in order to see what the state has to offer. Massachusetts could be a whole other trip with how much there is there.
>>
>>2651109
Boston is nonnegotiable because we're visiting my brother up there this July - he's only open over the weekend hence the out of town trip over the weekend followed up by the family exploring Boston in the week

You might do better flying into MHT, often cheaper fares and that puts you 20 mins from Concord. And much less busy, short lines at security.
There's not much to see in Concord other than the capitol building, that is worth checking out.
I would go up to the white mountains on day 2. See the flume gorge, the basin, those are cool, short hikes. Then go up towards Berlin/Gorham and take route 2 into Maine.
On the way back stop in Freeport, check out the outlet stores, then on to Boston. I avoid Boston like the plague so I don't know what to do there but there must be something, Fanuiel hall or whatever.
>>
>>2651326
Also drive up Mount Washington if you can. It's pretty cool as you go from lush vegetation at the base up past the tree line into alpine climate and see everything in between. Or take the train up, but I would prefer driving it so you can set your own schedule. It's not a hard drive, I've done it in a Ford Taurus.

Do you let others or things annoy you when travelling?
Or do you just ignore it.

If not, post examples

1. Americans asking questions in a museum (it will be a moronically stupid child level question of ignorance).
2. French/Dutch accent is heard nearby
3. Queue skipping

Old people blocking the aisles of planes/ buses/ trains. When you're boarding, they'll hold 50 people up while they faff about deciding which seat is theirs, or which of the zillion identical seats will be the best to sit on. When you're leaving, they'll block everyone again while they faff around getting all their stuff together and rearranging themselves, instead of just grabbing their shit and disembarking.

>>2651263
Not hard at all. Philippines is a Catholic country and they are all over the place.

This is why the Philippines is so amazing. At least one of the many reasons.

You could easily just go up to a girl start talking to her and chances are she will be Christian to some degree

I'm planning to relocate from Bongistan to Germany in the next couple of years, but I'm struggling to pick a city. Why? Because the national autism culture of ze Germans is very comfortable and welcoming to me, the quality of food and life in general seems better, and the UK needs to be nuked off the face of the earth.

My situation:

>already have remote job with German employer who can provide my visa
>speak fluent German
>64k GBP salary (but I will get paid in yuro should I move)
>50k in savings
>don't want to live in a region with a visible neo nazi problem
>also don't want to get bent over and assfucked for rent

The cities I like the most from previous travel are Cologne, Dresden and Leipzig, Berlin is okay and I have some friends there but I hear the rent market is nightmarish. What's a humble teutaboo to do?

Also, do people buy houses in Germany? I hear it's a rent culture, but I really need to invest some of that 50k somewhere and I'm absolutely not buying property on this shithole island.

Just one word of advice, OP:
>DON'T DO IT.

>>2651230
>visible neo nazi problem
You have other issues there, unless you move to Ossidorf in Sachsen with 200 inhabitants.
>and the UK needs to be nuked off the face of the earth.
ok, you will find plenty of Germans who will say the same about Germany.
>>
>>2651248
What are the other issues? I previously lived in a small town in Thuringia for a few months which was meant to be some kind of brown shirt hotspot but I never saw shit, maybe the Germans I speak to exaggerate the issue. What are the other issues you think I should be more concerned about?
>>
>>2651259
>What are the other issues you think I should be more concerned about?
The same as in the UK. Drunk retards, or underage faggots acting though and mentally ill poor persons. But way less stabbings. Nazis are just more in the news because of the past, not because it is so prominent. You need to be more concerned of taxes.
>>
>>2651230
If I could move wherever in Germany I'd probably move to some comfy smallish city in Bavaria. Like Regensburg for example. Rent should be a lot cheaper than the big cities.
