What is your question? I'm dutch, this trip looks good.

>>1253927
I hope you'll visit ALL the breweries.

>>1253927
I wouldn't agree with the 2 days in Brussel limit. If you like beer and nice places to drink it, you won't be bored in that city. Good museums too, and the cathedral is one of my favorites.

Otherwise, perhaps a bit too much time in Holland, but great plan, senpai.

They're basically the same city

London easily. Lots of flights that go everywhere and they are way cheaper than flights from Paris. Only downside is you need to go to faraway airports like Gatwick whilst cdg is easier to get to from Paris.

t. Someone who has lived in both cities.

An oversize black dildo to strap against the shower wall to fuck yourself with, because you are obviously a degenerate faggot.

No.

Unless you speak Greek, or have some exceptional skill, you won't find work. Even then it is very difficult. Maybe you could get some work in one of the really really touristy destinations on Corfu or Rhodes, but that would only be a few months a year, the pay would be _awful_ and it serving cheap drinks to 18 year old Brits is nobody's idea of fun.

Where/why do you want to move there?

>Unless you speak Greek
I speak some Greek, but just the basic stuff. I'm confident I can learn the language because it's similar to Spanish which I also speak.

That's fine. If I can get any kind of work, it's all okay. I just want to BE there.

>Where/why do you want to move there?
Athens maybe. What do you advise? I want to live there because I love the place and the people and I want to help the country in any way I can.

No, it's terrible.

>>1252524
You seem to know very little about a place you love.
You can't help them. You can't even help yourself right now.

>it's similar to Spanish
Should've stopped reading here.
Mate, just answer me this: are you from California?

You're expected to tip everybody who provides a service. From waiters to hairdressers.

Most restaurants now suggest an amount to tip on the bill.

Every restaurant with waiters will expect a tip of at least 15% or so every time no matter how shit the service. Other food places have started badgering you for tips too even if it's just a place where you order standing up, personally I don't enable that shit but I get nasty looks for it and lots of people will tip pretty much everywhere.

At worst if they get upset with you for not tripping just say some goofy stuff in your most exaggerated accent. Us burgers love funny English accents.

>>1252472

I'm American and I usually tip between 5-15% on restaurant bills, depending on the quality of service and total.

Apparently that makes me cheap, and you're 'supposed' to tip 18-25% nowadays. Fuck that.

Only interactions I have on a regular basis which necessitate tips are eating out, getting my hair cut, and ordering food for delivery. I don't tip for carry-out or Uber.

You are going to hk for a month?

>>1248164

That's my plan, give or take a few days. But naturally I was wondering how I could find a way to stay longer.

>>1248163
I take medication for epilepsy but my blood tests are 6 months apart to check the effect on my liver and medicine levels. I'm going to Japan in a few days. It shouldn't be much of a problem. Sometimes I don't get my blood test on time but my levels are fine.

I'd say just take the blood test the day before or so and maybe get a few extra pills on hand just in case, and then take a blood test as soon as you're back home.

>>1243562
Where in the country are you going? Its like saying youre going to america or europe.

Unless youre going to small villages, you really dont need to learn any indian languages. You will be able to get around with just english. India isnt really a place you need to be scared, the worst thing that can happen to you is getting your stuff stolen while you arent paying attention or getting ripped off.

I would honestly suggest south india, goa & kerala arent the in your face image you see of india and there arent idiots trying to sell you stuff all the time at tourist destinations like they do in the north. Again it all depends on what you want to see and do. If you want dirty hippies and dead bodies in the river then do the typical backpacker shit in india.

I was hoping to just kinda travel all over India for a bit, maybe spend a couple weeks to a month in certain places and then move on.


What is the typical backpacker shit?

>>1243630

I was just there, typical backpacker shit is Rishikesh, Manali,, Pavarti Valley Gokarna..India is the best. My favourite cities were Varanasi, Mumbai, Kolkata,Jaipur

Fucking chill, nobody cares

I was adjudicated guilty of several felonies when I was fifteen years old.

My record won't be sealed until I turn 30.

Between dozens of countries, the only time it has ever come up was when I was trying to cross into Canada - a country which is notoriously stringent with its entry requirements, even for American citizens.

When I was sent to secondary screening, an Immigration and Customs officer printed off the entire charge sheet that had been drawn up against me - which looks very bad - and said, "Holy moly, man."

I explained how old I was and that the offenses took place almost a decade ago. I also told him I was a graduate student and have worked and volunteered extensively. The fact that all that happened when I was a juvenile seemed to work, since he stamped a piece of paper that let me enter the country.

To relate my experience to your situation: I sincerely doubt that your issue will ever come up, especially considering that you're not obligated to answer "yes" to questions about convictions (again, out of dozens of countries, Canada is the only one that ever even asked).

No, your "history" will not show up when your passport is scanned - that'd be preposterous.

Some countries, like Canada, can receive information about U.S. criminal histories quickly upon request, since they have information sharing programs in place with America. Nevertheless, they still have to send off a request for approval and cannot access records just by looking at your passport.

>>1255308
What about the US/Canada/Australia/NZ?

Thailand, flight is the only expensive part about the trip.

Budapest, Hungary if you want to go to Europe, incredibly cheap to stay there but you may get bored as budapest is pretty much the best place in Hungary.

>>1254876
how much is accommodation and internet in thailand? im just starting out so I want to live within my means

>>1254879
depends on what class of accommodation you want mate

>>1253313
Bullshit

>>1253315
did you even read the papper bro, u think im making this shit up?

Phone signals just fuck with the radio the pilot can still manually fly the plane

>>1251835
You can't. I saved you the trouble and looked myself and I can say they don't exist.

Oh, you found a tuition free school? That's nice. Have fun paying 20.000€ in rent, fees, etc. You also need visas and registrations and a bunch of other shit and need 8.000€ capital up front to prove you won't go homeless after 2 weeks. You also need Abitur and a bunch of other German related education requirements which aren't offered everywhere in the world. High school diploma? Not good enough? 3rd world education? Try again. Just don't bother. German universities are already flooded with ignorant foreigners looking for "free" shit.

And judging by the way you write, I can instantly tell you're from a 3rd world shit hole looking for handouts and gibmedats like everyone else who comes to Germany.

>>1251846
Friend of mine was 18 when he came here from some African country, went thr same class as me. Was 24 when he finished school. Not Abitur, just the normal education most germans have. Meaning he went from middle school esque schools to "Berufsschulen" which are high schools centered around economics or othet topics. He now studies in University at age 25.

>>1251835
My friends doing this as an 'Erasmus' student. Might be worth googling.

Wether she's paying or not I don't know. I gather it's an exchange student thing.

Pretty sure the classes are in German though as you would expect.

Petty loser.

I'd watch these video series on youtube:
ADVChina
Laowhy86
SerpentZA

>>1249558
Wow, thats alot of videos. Will check them out! Basicly i don't want to be "that" tourist who has no understanding of the culture im visiting and acting disrespectful without realizing.

>>1249564
Yeah, allot if content. Just pick n choose based on the title of the video that's relevant to what answers/questions you're looking for.

Also what i'm looking at is Minneapolis and Boston

I live in Seattle so I'm slightly biased but I love it. Come in the summer, though. We have something for everyone: mountains and great nature nearby, pretty nice beer (at least for the states), a fantastic clubbing and bar scene, great food from tons of cultures, and tons of things to do.

You may find the people slightly unfriendly, there's a phenomenon called the "Seattle freeze" which is definitely a thing. In general people, outside of a few sets of scenarios, deeply prefer to be left alone. I don't think people are really rude, if you ask them a question they'll be happy to answer, but it would be very hard to strike up a conversation.

I don't know much about Minneapolis, I've only been there once and I was young. The mall of America was pretty cool but I don't know what else is even there, I don't have a very high opinion of the Midwest in general. Haven't been to Boston but you'll probably get pretty polarized responses, might be fun to visit.

>>1247407
Seattle sounds nice. I'll probably choose there anyway

Going to Poland next week for un-autistic reasons. I'm planning to stop somewhere between Krakow and Berlin, I'm thinking Wroclaw but does anyone know a nice small town I can hang out in for a couple of days? Also any food recommendations?
