The Stephan Audel memorial museum inside the biggest christmas tree in Germany (or the world), in Wermelskirchen. He was a hero.

>>1262056
We have the holocaust Museum here in Berlin. Hilarious stuff

>>1262056
Icelandic Phallological Museum in Reykjavík. A penis museum.

Galveston down the road is way more legit history-wise. Don't walk outside the tourist areas at night, though.

Galveston Pleasure Pier
An oil derrick museum accessible by land via a pedestrian bridge
the very old downtown
Also, if you like ghost tours, this place has 'em. Pirates, Civil War soldiers, dead bodies floating in space inside buildings from the 1900 Hurricane that killed like 9,000 people, etc.

>>1261856

I'm not big into ghost tours, but a "very old downtown" sounds pretty dope. I'll check out the oil derrick museum.

No one else has any tips on Houston?

I usually get this the day after I get back.

On the last day of the trip I'm too stressed out worrying about packing and making my flight on time.

You're back into the hamster wheel.

Play the game, but don't forget it is a game.

One day you might break free from it. Trust me THAT is scary.

>>1268185
How to break free from the game cryptic anon?

The trainline website is better, and National Express or Megabus buses are much cheaper.

Over 20 quid mate. But why the fuck would you want to go to slum-by-sea Anyway? It's hippie central.

Daily bump

The age limit thing is true for the expensive adult places, there's always places for youths as well, though obviously they tend to be a bit shittier.
I was never big on the club scene in Stockholm (always just tagged along since my friends knew all the "cool" places) but I remember liking Fasching (kind of upscale jazzy livre-music place), trädgården (they do have the age limit sometimes, you have to check), and maskineriet (free entry! No wardrobe a bit undergroundy place right next to Central station)

Dunno about lunch beat anymore

>>1266352
Many times the doormen/security guards will overlook your age deficiency and let you in if you're a non-Swede with a passport as foreigners can give the club more panache. Of course, this doesn't apply if you're brown/muzzie.

Because weed and hookers? Certainly freedom means more than that?

>>1268594
Well sure it does but ok for example?

Portugal legalized all drugs but is that country really more free than Nevada?

>>1268598
Define "free"

Americans are "free" to go bankrupt from medical bills but i don't think that sounds very free to me

Depends what you're into.

For local girls:

Philippines > Indonesia > Thailand > Vietnam > Malaysia > Singapore > Cambodia > Laos > Burma

For hookers:
Thailand > Philippines > Indonesia > Cambodia > Malaysia > Vietnam > Burma > Laos

For backpacker meme stuff:

Thailand > Vietnam > Laos > Burma > Cambodia > Indonesia > Philippines > Malaysia > Singapore

>>1268438
Depends what you want to do.

Myanmar is my favourite but it's very different to the rest of SEA. Much of it feels more Indian than anything.

>>1268472
why do you rate Burma so low? I've been itching to go there for a while now

>>1268196
go to a black person and ask them then smoke it your room

>>1268204
cant i just buy it in a store in california, colorado, oregon, etc?

>>1268205
Yes. In a state that has legalized recreational use, you can buy it at a weed store if yiu can show ID that you are 21. It doesn't have to be a US ID, the point is your age. It's like buying a case of beer.

>>1267666

Nope, generally still hang out with a beer or two and relax. Don't really go to the same hostel all the time so never use to the same story over and over. Worst is I just have some local beers and chill on the sofa.

Do it anyways, OP

I feel the same when I go at parties, the idea of meeting people that are always the same, wear the same clothes, with the same haircut, talking always about the same things really bores me (inb4 i'm an edgy prick). But if I spend the night at home watching netflix and smoking weed, the day after I feel like I've wasted my time and that maybe, going out the night after would have been super fun.

By experience, I can tell you that a couple of beers makes every conversation funnier and more interesting

Why not bring up novel topics yourself if others aren't doing it?

>fight with skinheads

Elaborate please lad, I didn't see any skins when I went there last month.

Also, I only went to drunkenly bond with locals and eat zurek desu, so I can't help much

>>1267595
Some skinhead said he hated Anglo's, then he butted me hahah so we all had a jolly old tussal.
What's Zurek?

>>1267598
Traditional Polish soup
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sour_rye_soup

Pros: supet beautiful, amazing atmosphere and the birthplace of jesus
Cons: the whole city and region is under the strict ontrol of the israeli army, and it is very hot during the day

>funding the extermination of the palestinians

>>1267371
And what about the cons?

noice, thanks OP

but is it worth it? How is the website, does it have a decent amount of users or it's a desert?

As you can see in pic related, there's quite a lot of activity in central Europe. The trend stretches up until the middle east. There's tons of people active in Turkey which is surprising.
Asia and Australia are a bit lonely with 6 blobs of about 10-15 people here and there. Same with South America and parts of the US.

I'd say if you're traveling EU, East Coast US and North Africa to definitely sign up and participate.

It's a nice little site tbqh and simple to navigate and find who ever it is you're looking for. Lots of hosts too

>>1267082
OP what do you mean send the link to 5 throwaway emails? like do i have to own these emails and use them to register with the link another 5 accounts?

>>1266446
yeah, sure.
regular law still applies, but your apperance isn't enough to trigger it anyhow. Sleeping on the streets may be a different thing, but they'll just shoo you away, like they always do
also, hitchhiking is well developed

>>1266446
Idk about the other countries but hitchhiking in Germany is illegal and I hardly see hitchhikers here, that being said it is not impossible and I remember my brother and me once giving a hitchhiker a ride. But it isn´t exactly common

>>1266569
>hitchhiking in Germany is illegal
absolute bullshit, unless something changed during the last year

Thoughts on Nikko in mid November? Kinda want to go to a proper onsen but I'm restricted by price and distance from Tokyo. I am only in Japan for a week but was thinking of doing an overnight trip. Any other places spring to mind brehs?

is $4,000 enough for two weeks there?
I want to haul back a bunch of weeb shit and see tourist destinations, and have no problem staying in hostels.

>>1266151
Yes, you could stay quite comfortably for that amount of money.

As for the weeb shit, that is subjective. You could spend 100k on weeb shit.

>>1266049
Dunno, but it stay there.

>>1266049
