Who cares? Do you pay taxes? Do you realize you create a new email and put in a random country?

>>1260348
The DS11 PDF I found doesn't ask for salary. Make a new gmail for the application and just write "no current plans" for travel.

>>1260348
Just make a new email account. There's a reason they want it. They might have a question processing your application, which is probably important to you.

Southern Portugal is gorgeous but very touristy. Northern Spain is also incredible and got nice cities like Bilbao and Santiago de Compostela. Whichever route you pick will satisfy you im sure.

I'm moving to Marbella soon and I've been looking at what's good nearby. While you're near Malaga check out Ronda for stunning landscapes (Hemmingway was fond of it) and near that is Caminto Del Rey which is an astounding hiking trail. Puerto Banus near Marbella is good for a night out. Gibraltar is impressive from a distance but the high street is shit although it's tax free so you can get super cheap ciggies/cigars fyi.

>>1260827
Sounds quite good actually, thinks it beats cities like Santiago de Compostela and Porto?

sample all the ports. it's actually free

Go up to the Duoro Valley wineries area. There's also some ancient heritage sites around there. If you want to try an awesome restaurant, go to Majestic Café on Rua de Santa Catarina (for lunch if you're short on cash).

>>1260646
second this. fat barrels and full glasses of port for days.

Holy Ship

Noice man

Looking at a New Caledonia cruise, but I want to get one that's not full of oldfags
I'm in VIC btw and the cruises I've been looking at so far are roughly $1,500 if you go with two people

There's a lot of YouTube videos of people who did similar trips, watch them for the advice they give

Read up on what the visa requirements are for a person from your country for each country you plan to visit.

Vietnam is great but watch some videos about what traffic in the city looks like. Motorcycling in major cities is pants shitting terrifying. Not nearly as bad in Cambodia from what I saw.

Prepare for 90f+ heat with 100% humidity. Dont go during their summer, even the local people dont want to go outside. Bring twice as much water as you think you need and be wary of buying bottled water with broken seal. I saw some gooks refilling plastic bottles in a big tub of tap water.

Everyone I interacted with in southern Vietnam was super nice to white boy me. Learn to love soup and fish sauce.

If its not out of your way, hit up the marble mountains in Da Nang. Theres one mountain theyll let visitors go up. Theres a buddhist hideout up there which is absolutely breathtaking.

I dont have much to say about Cambodia. After we saw Angkor Wat I gave in to some flu I caught and shut myself in the hotel until it was time to leave.

I assume you've looked up the drug policies.
>The statute's penal provisions are draconian by most nations' standards, providing for long terms of imprisonment, caning, and capital punishment.
>The law [...] creates a presumption that a person possesses drugs if he possesses the keys to a premises containing the drugs
>Any person found in or escaping from any place or premises which is proved or presumed to be used for the purpose of smoking or administering a controlled drug shall, until the contrary is proved, be presumed to have been smoking or administering a controlled drug in that place or premises.
>Thus, one runs the risk of arrest for drug use by simply being in the company of drug users.

I was only there for a few days about a month ago but holy balls it's hot, even after having lived in Hong Kong the previous few months. Hopefully you're more adjusted to the heat and humidity than I am, it was kind of hard to explore when it felt like I was melting after like 15 minutes.

Aside from that, lots of amazing, cheap local food at the hawker centers. Recommending any is kind of a moot point because they're literally everywhere.

>>1260458
Nice, too bad that will never happen in the US. Both the left and right seem intent on more lax drug laws now days, at least they agree on something.

>>1260063
Roll tightly around a pencil, remove pencil, tighten more, tape, wrap in plastics, lube up the wad of cash, push it into your rectum.

Make sure you go to the bathroom first.

>>1260066
That's actually a pretty good idea

Wear a jacket or vest with inner pockets.

Well if anyone is interested, sharing my experience so far. French people are not rude and they dont stink, streets smell like piss, too many historical buildings to cover and found a neat hotel for 35€ could find a cheaper one but I dont wanna take a bus to the city and dont wanna get crabs/HIV or whatever

It is otherworldly and beautiful. It looks like that sometimes, but only for parts of Jan-Mar, when it rains on occasion. The rest of the year is dry. In the winter it can be severely cold and windy. I was there in June, and it was a sunny, windy moonscape, quite pleasant if lip-chopping by day, with temperatures well below freezing at night in the town of Uyuni. Pic related.

I recommend doing a trip to the salar(es) combined with something else in Bolivia--Potosi and mines, greater La Paz, or both--while I found the salt flats quite cool, I can't imagine spending more than 48 hours out there, and the region is quite desolate and remote.

Train graveyard at the edge of Uyuni.

>no budget limit
Just grab 'em by the pussy.

>>1259373
I mean, I do have a limit, but I'm not trying to scrounge.

I'm still pissed that you posted this shit on /sp/ and we're taking advice from children that watch sports and have never travelled further than their kitchen.

Anyways..I'll help you.

I spent a week a couple of years ago in Madeira.

1. Pico de Arieiro is a fun hike. The views on top are some of the best in Europe. However can get busy. Also make sure you're not a fat fuck and can actually hike for 5 hours. It isn't really a beginner's climb (nor expert). Anyway there is a café on top and it's a nice spot to chill.

2. Ponta de Sao Lourenco. Another Jon challenging hike with some beautiful views. You get to see both sides of the ocean one which is insanely crazy and one calm. Not a beginner's hike either
...takes 4 hours. Don't be fat.

3. Monte cable car. Some great views of Madeira.

Didn't go to the ronaldo museum (was it even a thing 2 years ago?)

Overall. The hikes are nice but get very busy unless you're alpha and go at 5 -6 am ish in the AM. The food is good..nothing special.

Yeah, Nork activities are at an unusual high. stay in Tokyo. It's a better city anyway.

I was in Seoul about two weeks ago and aside from the odd soldier there was really no way to tell anything was going on, at this point it's just not something that the locals spend much time thinking about.

>>1259272
Was there in december when all the protest where going on https://youtu.be/8g__bdejP0w

But even then, it concentrated mainly on some specific areas. You could go to all the touristic sites without problems

I recommend the royal palace https://youtu.be/Y3DwuEq9mRo
and the namsan park https://youtu.be/08-IwNShbfY

Plus: The tower was surprisingly not crowded https://youtu.be/IZVd-Bc-T4I

Thanks for telling us which region and city, the north is different from the south and the east from the west, if you want the best Germany experience definitely go to Bavaria or the Black Forest

The north is German just not like the Germany you expect

>>1259243
That's right, there are no lederhosen, pretzels or joy in the north. People are more like Nordics, calm and autistic.

>>1259243
>>1259243
Sorry, I didn't mean to restrict my travel in a specific area, I'm willing to drive the whole country desu, I grew up in Bavaria so I've been their plenty of times.

>>1259252
Sounds like my kind of place

>>1259205
Airbnb fucking retard, no one is gonna let you do it for free

Have a heart, friend?

I got a tent outside of Amsterdam. You could come spoon and cuddle me.

Visit Leabanon first, then take the bus over to Israel.

Carry a golden sabre with you to all your destinations, my friend.

Stay 2 months in jerusalem at the austrian hospice. Meet religious people. There's nothig really interesting in Israel except religious stuff, and it's really captivating. Even if you're not religious yourself it's worth doing that

>>1259116
Pls be serious

>>1259176
Isnt hospice where people who are nearly dead live?
