Is Montreal the best place to go in Canada ? What are some things to do there? Is it a nice place to visit if going with family?

>Is Montreal the best place to go in Canada ?
Depends where you are coming from, and what you want. I could certainly see it being the best city in Canada to visit. Toronto might have more stuff, and Vancouver has better outdoors, but Montreal has it's own charm that I think the others lack.
>What are some things to do there?
If you're younger and like to go out at night, it's good for that. There's 3 large universities in the...

I'm taking a trip and looking for suggestions
>Leaving for Bangkok on JAN 22nd
>Phuket by the 26th
>Back in Bangkok by the 11th.
I don't wanna go home. Should I skip to Europe, or visit Vietnam? Looking for the most fun and cheapest option. After the 11th I'll be travelling alone.

interested.. going to Thailand in March too.
I want suggestions for best accomodations and clubs to go

>clubs
Check out RCA, a few good clubs on that strip.
Enjoyed the fuck out of Vietnam. Cambodia is well worth a visit as well.
What sort of stuff are you interested in seeing/doing?
I want to go to one of these cities with my girlfriend for a week in February but I'm having trouble choosing. We're on a rather tight budget and we'd stick to sleeping in a cheap hostel or airbnb room and mainly eating cheap stuff from supermarkets. We plan on eating out somewhere not too expensive a few times and getting coffee at cafes.

Bonus question: Is Athens actually much cheaper than Spain/Portugal or is it comparable? I haven't actually checked the prices in Greece I just assume with the crisis and stuff it's a cheaper country.

I am actually heading to Lisbon in february with my girlfriend.
I chose that city, because it is well known that Lisbon is a beautiful city.
A few years ago we have been in the south of Portugal and we did not regret it! Really nice coast!
But I think tourist spots are always expensive.. in the west.
Hello /trv/.
I am thinking of visiting Beirut, but I was wondering if the conflicts that happened in the past years are still going on. How safe would the city be?
Also, how does visa-on-arrival work? Is there anything I should be aware of other than what the name implies?
And lastly, is there any other cities worth visiting in Lebanon? Would crossing to Jordan be worth it? How much would that cost me in addition?
oh, one question I forgot: If there is a Israel stamp on your passport, you can't enter Lebanon. So I was wondering if the opposite is enforced too. Would I still be able to travel to Israel some time later with a Lebanon stamp?
"You cannot enter Lebanon with a passport bearing an Israeli stamp even expired.
You cannot enter Lebanon with a passport showing that you enteredIsraelfrom Jordan orEgyptor showing that you left Israel to Leabnon via Jordan or Egypt." - Gaby85
"Most people visitIsraelafter visiting Lebanon. You can enter Israel with the same passport you entered into Lebanon." -Gaby85
Hey /trv/, I just won $5 mil in a local lottery, and I want to spend big chunk of it on lottery.
First, I'm looking for must-visit places in Germany, Austria and Canada.
I like mountains and nature, more or less, I hate tourist sigths. But I also like big cities, the "urbanistic" aspect of that.
Also, can I find any local organization that do trips to mountains and shit? Don't really want to go alone, but don't know where to look for that kind of things.
Any tips? Thanks.

>and I want to spend big chunk of it on lottery
Typo. On travelling, of course.
>>1069376
If I give you a tip will you pay off my student loan?
>>1069416
Haha, student loans are actually the one thing I told my family I'd give them money for. But no.
How do I experience real Berlin?
Berlin is literally everything, and the "real" one is the one you want to see.
Mehmet
>>1062756
Been there for 6 years. It really is a great town. In fact, its not even 2 towns but 4.
Depending on what you want, Berlin can deliver everything. A rather affordable city (or well, was when I lived there) resembles as the NYC of Europe without the "FASTER FASTER FASTER" effect.
A really chill place to live at.
Hi, everyone !
Osaka-city(Japan), a nice regulation was approved.
It is called [The regulations about coping to Hate speech in Osaka-city] .
In Osaka-city,
When you say about “the specific race”, the specific race hears that ,and they scold it is Hate speech,
Only in this, Osaka-city takes sides with the specific race, and checks your name and
announces it.
If you are caught in the specific race's crosshairs ,Osaka-city checks your name and
announces it.
Do you come to such wonderful Osaka-city?
cool
Have fun Tarou. Next they'll be forcefeeding you kimchi.
I'm planning to travel to India, with my friend, next summer. I would like to see Mumbai and spend some time over there but also since I'm going for at least two weeks I would like to visit some other places. I'll be flying to Mumbai as it seems the cheapest connection. However when we're there we'll probably use trains.
I've started reading wikitravel but it isn't really helpful for choosing what to see. Especially when I don't even have a rough idea of where I want to go (except for Mumbai).
I'm hoping you could give me some...

How much $$ you saving up?
>>1070260
I have enough money saved up. However I don't want to spend too much since I'm still studying so I'll be on a rather cheap budget.

Hello /trv/
I am going to Brussels, Bruges, Maastricht, and Amsterdam for a comparative government trip between March 4th and 14th. I am from the US midwest, and I have never left the country, but I have travelled to most of the US states. I am wondering what I need to know about international travel, specifically in Belgium and The Netherlands. My daily itinerary is filled from 10AM to about 4PM with trips to government buildings and meetings and classrooms, but after 4PM I am free to do as I please. I'm 29 years old and this is part of a Masters Program, so I will...

OP here,
I forgot to mention I am a guy, and I will be bringing about 1000Euros for spending money and my hotels/travel/meals are paid for.
Pic still unrelated.
>>1070126
it would be nice if you wore something other than khakis, boat shoes and a north face.
Belgium - beer
The Netherlands - weed
The cars are going to be smaller, and people are going to speak other languages than English.
That KFC thread inspired me to make this one. When I travel I make sure food is one of the main aspects of experiencing the different locations I visit. I've had some amazing food on my travels, dishes that I would never be able to try in my home town. I always try to eat as much local food as possible and often reminisce about the food especially if it's a cuisine I absolutely can't find locally.
The best food I ever had was in Mexico. I traveled around the country a couple years back and only ate Mexican food throughout my time there. I tried dishes from...

This is not a very original opinion, but I nominate Vietnam for the world's best cuisine. Forget phó, those gooks can throw a quail egg and a handful of cilantro onto a hot plate on the sidewalk and hand you something wonderful. I've seen it happen.
From what I know of Thai food it's a real contender, so I should drag my fat ass to Thailand some day.
Sri Lankan curries were fantastic with all the little side dishes. I've never been to India for comparison, though.
When it comes to simple cooking, Moroccans can do more with meat, onions and potatoes...

I puked up a fuck ton of Poutine in Toronto because drinks were cheap as hell.
>inb4 Toronto Poutine is shit
>>1070011
>Toronto
>cheap drinks
does not compute
Poutine is the only good food we have but I only eat it a few times a year to not be a complete fatass.
>>1070009
I love Vietnamese food, definitely want to go there in the next few years mainly for the food. I haven't been to Asia yet but I can't wait as the Asian food I tried here in Canada is amazing.
Going to las vegas next month, any advice?
Don't gamble that much.
-Walk through the casino/hotel when possible to reduce the time outside, as it gets rather warm (but then again, I'm basing it on March and Summer weather)
-try catching some of the free shows (such as the fountains, the Sirens of Treasure Island, and Circus Circus)
-do the buffets

So I applied for a semester abroad in China and received confirmation that I can study in Shanghai. Problem is that I also have the opportunity to study in Beijing so I wanted to ask you guys what you would choose.
Which city is better?
Which city has more options for travelling?
Which city has more interesting sights?
Anybody with experience here that could tell me about both places?
where r u from

Beijing is a smog-infested hellhole. Shame, because if not for the smog it'd be a very lovely place.
I have about $4000 CAD. I would be leaving from Toronto. I just want to get away from it all. Someplace warmish but I want to avoid like parasites, infected stuff, basically I don't wanna come home and deal with illness or in extreme case be dead. Somewhere safe and politically stable.
Trying to get the most amount of days away. Umm beach, resort? Hotel? Sights to see? I'm not sure. I just want to relax and enjoy before I have to start university in the fall.
Canadian Male, 18, of South Asian descent. In case that helps with areas and how friendly they are known to be.
Any help is much appreciated!
Included a rough picture idk.
Of course, I'd like to make the most of it for the least. But with safety kept into account. Thanks for the help everyone! Really appreciate it! :D
Sorry, but last post I will make until replies. I also have a name of middle eastern origin even though I don't identify with it. I don't really wanna go someplace filled with Donald Trump minded people ruining my vacation and filling it with negativity.
>>1067890
Go to an all inclusive resort. Maybe a cruise. Look on Groupon, or for vacation/flight packages offered by airlines like Delta.
