plan the next one

>>1241159
What if you're a doctor and the next longest real vacation you get will be months away and can only be 7 days in length? I feel like I'm getting too old now and the real world finally caught up as I discovered something I truly enjoy.

See friends and cry. There isn't much you can do besides let yourself adjust with time. Hope you feel better anon :(.

Laos you can buy opium
https://matadornetwork.com/notebook/vang-vieng-used-ridiculous-party-scene-earth-heres-happened/

Van Vieng is no longer a free-for-all but all the restaurants still have opium menus once you get inside, they just aren't openly advertised on the street anymore.

Being a junky is played out though, there's nothing cool about getting fucked up and being a bum. I suggest you go to detox because if you get on opiates in SEA you'll likely go full junky and get busted.

I don't know who you heard this from, and it may be true, but my wife's former boss lost her job for trying (and failing) to buy oxycodone from an Indian pharmacy. Cambodia and as of a few weeks ago Myanmar are pretty fast and loose, and benzodiazepines are available with few questions asked in many places in Southeast Asia. But bogus pills and arrest are never impossible in Asia.

>so lol, nightlife.
There will be Rum.

I was listening to radio.garden in this place recently, I'm intrigued.

>>1240652
>for a few days.
That's an oddball for a short visit. Are you a Newfoundlander?

Personally, just after I had turned 21.

To be honest, I know very few people that have travelled solo, its not really that common of a thing. Out of all my friends only maybe 2-3 have, maybe a few others have gone on group tours before knowing anyone beforehand, but that's it.

>>1240550
I started my first trip around Europe just before turning 19.

>>1240550
15.
Told parents I was going camping innawoods during school holidays (was in the Scouts so they didn't question it). Instead I hitchiked to the south coast, got the Newhaven - Dieppe ferry and started heading down through France.

My folks fucking freaked when I phoned them to say I was in Biarritz, and my old man shredded my passport when I got back.
>Highly recommended trip nonetheless.

Yes! The beaches and the night life are superb! I do have to say though that this is the strangest spelling of the word "Thailand" that I have ever seen. Is it the British spelling or something?

>>1240398

If you can get over the fact that his advice is geared toward middle age, middle class Americans, he has a lot of useful information.

Definitely one of the go-to writers for Euro travelling.

His TV shows are okay, but his books have more information.

Smoke weed everyday.

Nothing, don't know who this literal who is.

Depends on my length of stay honestly. If I am staying a week or a less I usually just put things in a backpack. Those vaccum backs you can use with your hands are amazing.

If doing connecting flights and staying somewhere over a week without access to a washing machine then usually I'll get a wheeled backpack

don't do it lad

I have before and don't really like it. I prefer a backpack or duffle bag.

They all have good nightlife, Rome has an ice bar and a couple other cool bars
But Rome is shit

I've been planning a trip there with my girlfriend for about a year. I'm trying to cheap out as much as possible, especially with the supplies.

I wanted these Rick Steves books for while I was in Italy and Switzerland and I ended up finding them online for free from a pain in the ass source.

I have not read over them yet, and I don't know if they will be of any use to you as far as night life goes, but I hope you can find some use for them.

I hope you have a great time anon.

Are these guidebooks about the named cities? I'm not OP, but am also going to all of them with my gf soon

Where are you from? If western you should be fine. Flights to Europe are easy (esp. Geneva, Zurich, Frankfurt, others) and you could always fly there and transfer.

>>1238478
I lived in Kenya for a while.. you can go by bus from tanzania to Nairobi.. it takes like 20 hours.

coach buses are good though, with leather seats and airco, television screens and things like that. very modern.

depends where you come from.. if you are from a western country you can simply buy a visa (basically a stamp in your passport) for around 50 dollar at the Kenyan border.

>>1239172
I'm addition. If you are not from some shithole country the only thing you need to get in and out of Kenya is a stamp in your passport..

When I was in kenya I went to Uganda and Tanzania and had no problems at all going in and out of kenya.

yes there might be some crooked border guards that want 10 or 20 dollar extra but that's nothing.

>I want to move to Paris
do it if thats what you want
>but I'm so scared of the terrorist attacks that have been targeted at France.
they happen now, you are aware of that, but in my own opinion, if your goal in life is to truly move to Paris, then it is better to accomplish your goal and die for it in the prime of living your dream rather than to be a coward: live safe, die old, never accomplish your goal, and a life of regret. Maybe you truly dont want to move to Paris then, otherwise why let it stop you?

“A coward dies a thousand times before his death, but the valiant taste of death but once. It seems to me most strange that men should fear, seeing that death, a necessary end, will come when it will come.”

make sure to be aware, strong, and smart.

Funnily enough you just stated exactly my thoughts. It's near to impossible for me to be able to study law in Finland as the school only takes the top of the top to enjoy the phenomenal Finnish school system. I have two options left for myself: either I stay in safe, good old Finland and study some subject I have absolutely no interest of whatsoever or I take whatever my destiny beholds for me in Paris. I believe I should follow my intuition on this, the bad thing is I have no idea what it's trying to tell me.

Great quote, is it Hemingway?

As a french citizen, young student in Paris btw, my first reaction is to support you coming here and assure you that we all feel safe (take the example of the european football cup, or COP21, Olympics in 2024...).
I perfectly understand your point of view, but if it's your dream and desire to move to Paris then don't let them take your future down.
Hope to see you around !

Okay, I lose. It was stupid of me to take this thread seriously.

bump, also interested in this

The In Your Pocket website has good, up to date guides to cities in Central and Eastern Europe, including restaurants and nightclubs.

It should be in the sticky when it gets its once-a-decade update.
