Where can I see his work?

>>1052652
Probably that website on his shirt

>>1052673
Nevermind website is just about his jail situation now

It depends more about the person who is travelling, than the country...

But Brazil is big as a continent, where you think to go?

Protip: I`m brazilian

>>1052421

Your age, male/female?

Yes there is a visible police presence. Europe is SAFE, I'd even say it's safer than big American cities.

Rome - absolutely safe. Beautiful city, enjoy.
Florence, same.
Berlin - I live there, and you couldn't find a nicer place.
London - cool place I guess
Madrid & Barcelona - wonderful. Enjoy the amazing Spanish food.

You don't have to worry in any of these places.

>a totally keked city
I'm not sure what you mean by that, but I strongly advise you to leave any /pol/ shit at the door. Thanks

what he >>1052358 said

also, western europe is not on edge ... it is totally fine and normal in the western europe

>>1052360
at least what EU concerns ... obviously i'm not talking about countries east from the Schengen Area border

>>1051358
1) we are in a midst of a corporativist war between Uber and taxis, and the first ones were ultimately forbidden in Rio. I don't know about São Paulo
2) Stay strictly in tourist areas, don't be a gangsta and walk always with some R$ 150 in your pocket. If you are robbed, give it to the thief (you can face serious problems if you find a thief without money)

>>1051363
Even staying in the tourist areas during the day what is the likely hood of being robbed?

>>1051358
OP again. I also just remembered we're pretty much staying in Copacabana the entire few days we are there. I hear thats a more safe zone.

>Why is a culture derived from forced ass kissing and glib customer service so shit?
Because it is.

"How are you?" ≠ "Hello" know the difference

>>1050297
Well if someone says they're doing good then yeah, end of greeting. If they say "not well" or anything like that then it works as a way to push past formalities and address any issue the person has or, if you're both friendly, dive straight into conversation.

>>1050313
This exactly. Most of us do care. The ones that don't are usually really cynical about small talk.

What does the rest of the planet usually say after "hello" when they don't have any pressing matters at hand?

Best was Etihad Airways. I'd rank KLM second for me. Better than the German airlines I've flown in. American/US Air ways have been the worst. Delta most meh. Not horrible, not great.

>>1050146
Best: Turkish, KLM
Alright: Aeromexico
Worst: AA, United

>>1050146
yea my best was probably either KLM or Icelandair


KLM in flight entertainment is really good and theres so much free food and drink

Culture is a Smörgåsbord of indian, muslin and chinese, with some thai sprinkled in there. Its kinda like Canada in the sense that you're in Singapore but nothing feels Singaporean culturaly speaking.

Nightlife is shit, beers are like 14 dollars each and clubs close at like 12-1, BUT all coffee bars and food places (all of which serve alcohol) dont close till like 4 am, so getting drunk and eating is one of the better activities to do there IMO, since the food is literally out of this fucking world.

Groceries are expensive, not sure about living arrangements tho.

Country is fucking SWEET, highly recommend it.

>>1049945
Cheers on the proper smörgåsbord spelling and thanks for the reply.

14 dollar for a beer? Are we talking fancy pub or even dinner restaurant with friends kind of place?

Is there anything to do aside from beer, work and food?

I've been looking to get a new job and found a place there, but it's not finance so I expect salary to be low. What would you estimate is necessary for survival there?

Country is boring as fuck. It's one giant corporation. Enjoy the sterility.

9 out of 10 times I´m high on coke and drunk.. I don´t have that.

>>1049901

I've had this a million times. Moved to staying in hotels or airbnb instead. I stay in Hostels only when I'm not travelling on my own these days.

There is nothing beta about not talking. In fact, if you don't feel like talking the beta thing would be to talk.

If you want to mingle I suggest that you stop contemplating how, navigate yourself into the nearest company and ask: hi, where are you from?

For a natural effect pick the first person you encounter or the one that is closest. Not a random individual across the room.

A smile helps too. Good luck

I think travel-medical insurance is necessary. I buy it every time I travel and haven't had to use it yet. However if were to get sick or have an accident abroad I don't want to be paying $400,000 out of my own pocket to cover those expenses. We've all seen those astronomical medical bills from the US but many people don't know that in other countries the costs are actually similar to those it's just that medical care is free for their citizens. In Canada for example if an American was to end up in a hospital without insurance they'd be paying huge fees as well. There was a news story of a girl going to Mexico and in some accident sustained severe head trauma. Her bill was something like $80,000 to get her back home plus cover cost of hospital. Her friends were doing fundraising to collect money for her.

You can get cheap travel-medical, something like $400 a year that can even include a flight back to your home country in case you get stuck in a hospital abroad.

Other travel related insurances are up to you. I never get them. For things like lost luggage or flight cancellation, I wouldn't really bother unless you're flying with something of value that you have to check in instead of keeping with you in the airplane.

Had two major claims in my life, both when I was younger and more risk adverse. Needless to say, I could spend $200 a year for the rest of my life on travel insurance and still not get close to the insurance bill for either one the bills.

One coma and one mountain rescue makes me think travel insurance is definitely worth it.

Depends on your sort of travel I guess.

I never bought one since I always just traveled in cities or towns at worst and never in a situation where I considered really hurting myself (hiking, mountain climbing, extreme sports etc.)

I would like to go there

Yeah, its pretty neat, feels like you are on a tourist conveyor belt though, going from one spot to the next.

What is this place?

Easy. Pattaya, Thailand. Tons of older tourists there and cost of living is really cheap. Plus you can live out your days in nice warm weather banging Thai hookers.

>>1054285
don't feel like you got some two more decades in you?

>>1054285

Why are you limiting your spending if your days are numbered?
With that amount of money, do the 1970's hippie trek to the himalayas through afghanistan. Beautiful trip, and you wil eventually die along the way, probably in a peaceful blaze of opium.

Tunisia, Morocco.
There was a blast in Tunisia yesterday, so Morocco.

It's Africa, it's wild, but you're not gonna get kidnapped by a sub-saharan warlord.

Thailand. Spergs don't get stabbed only brosefs do

>>1054232
I said without getting stabbed.

There really isn't much to do there. Go see the old town, Casco Viejo and if you're into that sort of thing the original settlement in Panama Viejo. Definitely check out the canal, it's pretty interesting actually even if you don't care much about ships.

Other than that, there really isn't anything else to see. The city is quite boring to be honest. You might find some good shit away from the areas with the skyscrapers. In fact, the most interesting area I stumbled across was close to Casco Viejo, in an area where the local black population lives. It looked poorer and dingier but also more interesting to just hang out and look at everyday life there. Panama seems to lack much of a middle class so don't be surprised when you see 3rd world shit in one of the wealthiest cities in Latin America.

Thank you anon. Is there any interesting museum to visit?. Or a mall where I can find cheap prices for good products?
