Have you tried spareroom.co.uk? It's quite a good way of finding houseshares, and I used it myself when I first moved to London

Also if you don't have a job, why are you trying to move to a new country? Especially one that's currently very unhappy with the levels of immigration, hence the whole Brexit thing?

>>1154965

Don't go London my homeboy, everything's too cutthroat and expensive, luckily Brighton is honestly one of the best places to be if you're a young, carefree dude from another country, it's chill as fuck, cool party scene and just a nice looking place, the south of England is the best part (Kent bro checking in), so maybe try spareroom.com, youll struggle to just come over without being able to pay rent and bills and food and stuff, so make sure you got some P before you come over as you might not be able to get a job that quick unless you have specific skills and education at degree level.

>>1154967
Well, it's an english speaking country, that's the main reason.

I don't really feel like moving to the US since I feel like it's gonna get really bad really fast, & because getting a green card requires you to be lucky af.

>get paid

>has anyone here taken a trip to see the aurora borealis?

Yeah, went to Iceland with that in mind. Spent a week there, really enjoyed it, but had cloudy nights until the very last night we were there, then got to see a decent display.

Some of the rural hotels will agree to wake you up if a display starts, which may be true elsewhere, and there are websites that track when and where a display is likely.

Best tip I have is, if you want to take pictures, make sure you got a camera that will do well in low light and has the ability to do long exposures -- the super-zoom I had did not do either. (Pic related, does not do it justice at all) Maybe invest in a mono-pod or tripod.

Oh, and you want a dark sky -- get away from cities, and plan your trip for as close to the new moon as you can. Full moon washes out the sky something terrible.

Probably do not have to mention that during the summer, when there is little or no night at northern latitudes, may not be your best bet...

>>1154663
I have never traveled to see them ,but I have seen them many many times since I live in northern sweden. It's beautiful but I don't understand why you would travel to see it? Don't get your expectations up too much.
Also every season there is guided groups going around several weeks to find them here but they don't always see them... I don't see them every year.

But If you come to northern Sweden the landscape is more beautiful then the lights imo! :D

>>1154992
i saw a movie called brother bear when i was a kid and since then the aurora borealis has been the #1 destination in my bucket list. i just think that lights like that in the sky are something you would only find in alien planets, and then they make you realize that we are that alien planet

Everything is backpackble

>>1154647

I have to disagree. How many hostels are in the US compared to Europe?

>>1154652
Enough if you plan right, kiddo.

>>1154559
>- in what city may I see the true cutting edge of art, fashion, and creative thought? (I understand it's not Berlin.)
Yes, fuck off. Don't ever come here.

>>1154566
come on. talk me back into visiting Berlin. this board put me off with all its cynicism so far.

Dude you sound like a massive faggot aye

As a fellow 25 year old aussie, I have to tell you to relax and not overthink it. Go to a hostel, talk to people. Find out what there is to do and go do it. If you want nature then don't go to the big cities.

I like both nature and the city life, and am for example going to Mostar in Bosnia & Herzegovina to do some day trips consisting of visiting various lakes and waterfalls. But then I'll probably go to a big city and do a pub crawl getting drunk with randoms and having a mad fun time. If clubbing is not your thing then I recommend drinking a lot more than everyone else until it becomes your thing.

You didn't need to go all the way to Europe if all you wanted to do was go and rent a boat, kek

>>1154524
At your age, studying abroad is the easiest way into those countries

>>1154542
Basically what this guy said

>>1154524

Walk around the Old Town and try to find some stuff you might like at the big market in the main square.
It's mostly the same soiveneirs there, more or less, but I got a nice vyshyvanka for a good price at the main market in Lviv.

There are definitely some unique vendors there...one drunk guy (this was at maybe 10 AM) was selling a bunch of old WWII memorabilia, including a small statue of Hitler and what appeared to be a fake SS helmet
Maybe it was a real German helmet but the SS part was definitely fake.

You should also see the opera house, even if only from the outside, and go to the top of City Hall for a good view around the city.

If you are interested in history, you might like to see the statues of famous people such as Stepan Bandera and Taras Shevchenko.

If you only have a few hours, there's not much else you can do. It's a great city to just walk around.

>>1154308
Look for the "Tpaпeзнa" on Valova street. It's like a monastery restaurant that not only cheap but also quite delicious.

>>1154308
>a few hours
Why bother leaving the station?

>>1154269
>I want our kid to see a lot of the world. Even if he/she won't remember anyway.

Why?

>>1154291
seriously why the fuck travel with a kid who is not going to remember anything? Is this guy a fucking moron?

Congrats on the pregnancy, op
I would suggest waiting until your child is a little older, maybe 4-5. Babies won't remember it, they'll just wonder why they're in a sky box that makes their ears feel sad.
It's doable, though, but kids (especially babies) are very expensive.

I think you're an idiot.

A steel bike might be capable, but stay the hell away from carbon and carbon/alum alloys. Maybe get a cruiser and not a road bike. Why aren't you just googling models and seeing if they have some sort of weight limit.

I've heard stories of people blowing out their tyres and blaming it on their weight, as most tyres have a very low "safe" limit. Hell, mine claim that they're only safe up to 180lbs, but I find that pretty hard to believe.

>>1154222
Unless you're over 7 feet tall or a competitive bodybuilder, you're too fucking fat and are going to die of a heart attack, fatty. Have you ever even attempted physical exercise beyond walking to the corner store to get a bottle of coke?

Long distance cycling ain't easy, friendo

>>>/fit/

Chew a bubblegum.

>>1154113
This desu

>>1154113
/thread

Sure.

Just don't get caught and it's all good.

Plenty of times with a tent, but 95% of the time at a camping. Having to shit in the bushes is where I draw my line of minimum comfort.

>>1154108
I know here in Canada it's legal to camp anywhere on crown land for up to a month and then you have to move (you can literally move five feet though, it's just to stop people from setting up permanent dwellings.

What's funny is when I just read your first sentence I immediately thought of Thailand. Thaland is safe and comfy for same sex couples. You will no doubt notice "tomboys" (Thai slang for a boyish lesbian) and their woman. Here is a Thai movie that may interest you.

I also think there may even be lesbian bars and clubs, though you'd be fine in regular ones. Silom is the gay bar/club area of Bangkok, it's not my scene but I imagine that extends to lesbians.

Safe: any country where same-sex marriage is legal and accepted (e.g. Western Europe)

While it's also legal for example in Turkey, you will get dirty looks so not recommended.

Great honeymoon places would be Norway, Canada or Spain I guess.

>maybe have drunk sex at a public place

nowhere, fuck off

Not really

>>1154051
Stay away from the central valley, there's hardly anything to see here.
>Heredia
This is where I live, I can't really thing of anything worthwhile to do here if you are staying just a week
>San Jose
Some small museum's you around, you can see all of them in like 5h or less, they pretty close, aside from that, San Jose sucks.
>Alajuela
I think the Arenal volcano is pretty much the only thing worthwhile along with the thermals in San Carlos
>Cartago
The Irazu volcano, Sanatorio Duran, Prussia in general has a really nice surroundings
>Guanacaste
Nice beaches, dry climate. Check out Flamingo, Conchal and surrounding beaches. Santa Teresa and Montezuma are kinda cool also
>Puntarenas
Avoid Jaco, Dominical, Esterillos, Tamarindo and Puntarenas (the city, El Puerto).. Check out Manuel Antonio, Bahia Ballena
>Limon
Go to Puerto Viejo, eat a bunch of Patí, Plantintae, Rice and Beans, rent a bike and go to Manzanilla (9km straight line flat road, can't get lost) see the Cristal clear beaches with white sand, if you feel adventurous, rent a hammock in Rockin' J's for staying over the night. Check Tortuguero

Expect to pay out of your ass for anything, more so in Guanacaste and Puntarenas, try not to look stupid just a few days ago, a taxi driver charged a gringo like 70 mil colones ($140) for a trip of less than 10km that's absolutely insane, eat Chorreadas, Maduro con Queso, Gallo Pinto, Casados, Agua Dulce and I guess that's all I can think now.. I'm probably letting a bunch of stuff out but you're staying just a week so it doesn't matter.. my favorite place it's probably Puerto Viejo because I'm a pleb and its like 5 hours away

If you end up in the Central Valley, expect to see the train getting reckt by a stupid driver
ANY.FUCKING.DAY
>Pic related

>>1154051
Also, I don't now if it's just me, but just 2 days in one place does it for me. Costa Rica is pretty small and you can see a bunch of different stuff if you plan it right.
I would try:
>Irazu(one day), Arenal(one day), Puerto Viejo(2 days), Manuel Antonio, Bahia Ballena and Cahuita the rest of the days. That way you get to cover the most, in my opinion.

Also, for us, the Nicas are like the Mexicans to the Gringos, so try to avoid them, they pretty much look the same (I'm not racist or xenophobic but a gringo will hardly have a nice time dealing with a nice that barely speaks proper Spanish)
