I went there three times with my family. Having never been abroad elsewhere it was cool then (I was 12-15 I think).

Not sure what to tell you exactly. The beach on the right side of the castle or whatever was better iirc. Prepare to die in the heat.

Antalya (100km further West) is a bit better but nevertheless the experience wil lbe similar. The islamic doctirne is almost non existent for tourists and they are quite used to tourists so you must not be scared about any behavoir tabus.

As a turk, i can only say that lt is the best part of the turkey right now. There arent any islamic shit. You can do whatever you want without any problem. The weather is may little b a problem but it is ok you will get used to it.

If you're from an English speaking country, consider teaching english abroad. If you're American there is also the Peace Corps or you could sell yourself for money

>>1136367
You don't.

Not sure where you are from but the US has a lot of opportunities working seasonally in beautiful places that provide housing. Lodges, camp stores, ski resorts. Pretty much any national or state park you can think of has them. The work sucks of course but the days off make it worth it. I know even NZ has the same opportunities. Would definitely recommend.

y tho

Why what? I had never seen most of the country so I wanted to see all the different types of people and landscapes.

Where did you camp, and was it free camp or paid? Why did you select this route? How horrible were the great plains? How many hours a day did you drive? What gear did you use? What did you eat?

My impression is you didn't plan the route based on cool shit, just the shortest road.

impossible m8, get a car for a day

Bolzano is your best bet to be based in

Which one is it? There is roughly hundred churches of st. Johann in Italy.

>>1136192
nevermind, found it. It's the one near Vilnöß?
There is train station/stop called "Villnösser Haltestelle" between Bozen and Brixen, but I can find a railway connection to it.
Its only 10km from Brixen (but with mountains in between!), so, try to hike there? The landscape is way to fantastic to only go around by car.

You probably won't be able to take the rented car to the Palestinian side.

Hi, Israeli here

You shouldn't skip Tel-Aviv, Haifa and Acre. Bare in mind that parking inside Tel-Aviv can be pretty expensive (about 5$ an hour) so you should park it in your hotel (which I assume you'll be at since you're renting a car) and using public transport which is pretty good. Just notice that it pretty much shuts downs from Friday evening to Sunday morning.

I don't think there's going to be much problem for you to go to the west bank, but there are several areas, especially areas A & B, that you shouldn't enter.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_C_(West_Bank)

I'm available to any question you'll have.

Dead Sea is incredible and climbing massage while the sun rises was great. Of the time I spent in Israel that was the most worthwhile experiences. Jerusalem was cool but had scam prices and was a bit uncomfortable. Tel-Aviv was just a city.

Daily bump

I worked in South Dakota last summer and that was probably my favorite place. Small town in the middle of no where was fantastic. Even more specific was the open gun Range outside of the town. In the middle of the night I would go out there and just lay down and look at the stars. Still one my favorite memories.

Not to be too RealTraveler (TM),/old fucker, but my favorite places are mostly spots in Thailand from when I lived there as a young person, starting in the late 1980s. Nong Khai, on the Mekhong/Lao border, when NE Thailand got few tourists and Laos got none, will always be magical to me. Nong Khai is still charming, in my opinion, dreadlocked Israelis in Singha or Beerlao wife beaters notwithstanding.

>inb4 the currency conversion rate. they charged me 321 pounds and it came out to 430 usd on my credit card statement. US sites wanted about 560 usd for same booking

Can you drive stick? All cars in Europe are manual. Also where are you going?

>>1135681
Not all. It's slowly but gradually changing.

Make a conscious effort not to socialize with other Chinese students, or Chinese locals. I know this takes you out of your comfort zone -- a big thing when in a new, strange place -- but it's essential if you want to meet non-Chinese people. Not all of these locals, or even many of them, are big partiers and drinkers, so you also need to put your prejudices and preconceptions aside. You're from Singapore, so your English is OK -- talk to people, other students, etc., join clubs, participate in sports, in general be friendly and open. You should have no problem fitting in as long as you're willing to put in the effort to find people with interests similar to yours.

I'm a Canadian who just recently studied abroad in Singapore, and I can say that you'll notice a huge difference in how people think about drinking and partying (as you sort of alluded to). Don't feel pressured to turn into a borderline alcoholic like plenty of the local kids, but also don't be afraid to have a drink every now and then. A lot of people here like going out for a few drinks, or having friends over to play drinking games and this is how a lot of people bond with one another/have a good time.That being said, there will still be a good chunk of people that don't drink, so you'll be fine if you choose not to as well.

Like the person above me said, try to avoid spending all of your time with other Chinese students. Most Asian local/exchange students tend to mainly hangout with each other, so you don't want to fall into that trap. Are you really coming all the way to Canada to just eat Chinese food while watching Chinese tv shows with Chinese friends? It'll be good to have some friends like this, especially if you ever feel homesick, but try to branch out.

As long as your open to meeting new people, people will be open to hanging out with you, and I'm sure you'll have a great time.

Pretty much this, I have a Malaysian friend who said this exactly when he came over to America. He's a really nice guy but very strange, you could be that guy.

>>1134594

>>1134007
are moon pies any different than space cakes?
>>1134000
yeah but what drugs specifically, and where

I don't really have anything to add, but have never seen a Japn general this early and thought I'd post second.

Ask me about Ninja Restaurant in Tokyo, I guess. It was kitschy fun.

What are the best certificates to get to teach in Japan?

>>1133270
Did he do Ninja Magic for you too?
