What US states will never no snow or cold?
>>1050817
I don't think this is really a question for /trv/, but here is my very rough estimate of where it does and doesn't snow in the United States. I probably fucked up in a few places but this is my best guess and one which I hope is not too far off.
Everywhere below the blue line probably doesn't get too snow every winter or doesn't get very much snow when it does snow. Everywhere below the red line probably will not see snow on an annual basis although I think basically every state gets...

Here's the USDA plant hardiness map.

I'd only describe anything above zone 9b to be snow-free. But even where I live in zone 9b in central California it gets cold and occasionally freezes, but I've never seen snow here.
There are very few places zone 10a and above in the US. Which are generally warm year round and can grow tropical plants.

You probably want North Dakota or Minnesota. You're welcome.
What's up, guys?
What can I do in Fort Lauderdale? I'm flying to Mexico City in March and have stops in FLL on the way there and back. My layover is ten hours and I'm an American citizenship, so I won't have to waste time clearing customs on my first arrival and then on my second departure.
Is it possible to visit Miami? Is there anything I can comfortably doing carrying around a small backpack, which will be my only luggage?
Feel kind of stupid because I've traveled a ton but haven't been to Florida since I was 5. I have...

>>1050591
wait are you a grill?
Just take the trip, I usually forget about all troubles back home when traveling since you're too busy trying to figure a bunch of shit out, exploring, etc. It's a great way to escape for a bit.

You just dodged a huge bullet anon.
That women was going to cu'ck you within in a inch of your life and leave with children you were going to pay for forever.

My girlfriend and I will be in NYC (We are from Melbourne, Australia) from the 20th of December until the 10th of January.
So far we have booked tickets for a broadway show and a couple of sports games along with purchasing a NYC pass to do all the main tourist shit (Empire state etc.)
Any tips from locals to do not so touristy stuff or people who have been there during the winter for a vacation before and can tell us what you...

Will be there over Christmas too.
I'm kinda at a loss myself, will be monitoring this thread as well.

Also since you're going with your gf I would recommend Rockefeller center. During the Christmas time they turn it into a ice skating plaza, I'm sure if you have ever watched a romantic movie set in NYC you have probably seen it before. Go rent a pair of skates and spend some time on the ice with all the other tourist couples.
>>1050528
This was definitley on the agenda, cheers. Going to check if it operates on Christmas Day since we're not sure what will and will not be open
They do say the city never sleeps though right?
If anybody here is in Paris, I hope you're okay. Please stay safe.

My friend is on vacation in Paris . He told me that he risked being in the bags blacks . Fortunately, everything ok
britbong here, going to college in america for a year, this doesn't count towards my degree so i can party as hard as i want, any tips on getting the most fun out of a year of american college? share any college stories for me to take inspiration from?
Where you goin'?
Best ways to enjoy yerself are somewhat influenced by where you are.
>>1050463
top choice, Austin, Texas, the other two i pretty much picked at random so Vermont, and West Lafayette, Indiana wherever the fuck that is, i can't even point to Indiana on a map
>>1050465
I second Austin. I grew up in Michigan and UofM there is pretty awesome, but you don't really get snow in Austin so less packing and more partying. Plus the city itself is full of young people moving to the city so you'll meet great people who aren't in college. Look for the university of Texas at Austin.
Hi guys!
Im moving from Denmark to VB in the states.
Im just looking for some nice activities and stuff.. Any ideas? :)

Take trips north eastward to major cities. Dc, Baltimore, Philly, Atlantic city, NYC.
Being a foreigner it's not so bad of a spot to get to many historical spots for the United States. Many colonial towns and rich in history near by, you are close to where the first settlers came in and then revolutionary war and also fu*k over the natives like a bunch of bitches fu*k the white man

Aside from the usual giant buddha island type stuff, any of you dudes got recommendations for what to see/do in Hong Kong? I'm going there next week with my parents and brother. My brother and I will be spending a lot of time with them, probably, but I think we'll wind up having evenings/nights to ourselves.
I'm not super into nightlife, but get down occasionally. Into comics, fight sports, toys. Really liked Mandarake in Tokyo (which was a shopping complex full of that sort of stuff), wondering if there's anything like it in Hong Kong. Plus food recs, obviously.
>>1050227
Lan Kwai Fong in central is your night life, Friday or Saturday night. Wednesday and Sunday nights, go to Wan Chai.
Bumping for interest... I'm considering a trip in the next year bouncing over from Sapporo... When is best (weather and cost wise) time to visit? Is there any decent wildlife viewing opportunities. Food that cannot be missed on a 4 or 5 day stay?
You could go visit in's point In Nathan road eat everything you see if you don't like Cantonese food try cafe de coral it's everywhere maybe go to wan chai for some bitches and you could visit women's market have fun Dude Hong Kong is awesome crazy people great food and the weather is nice the whole year except in Sommer
Who else wants to get out of the USA?
this country is a blight on the world, hatred towards intellectuals, love of money over man, and a corrupt government run by corporations.
Planning to move to Germany or Scandinavia after getting my degree in Stats and English, hopefully teach something along those lines, find a Nordic waifu, and have a cozy family life.
Anyone else done this? Anyone else want to do this? How difficult is this to do?
Really difficult if you don't get the degree first, those countries don't want to pay for an Americans education if they aren't sure you won't use it for them. They educate their own to help their respective country, on that side note you're right about America and you have my pity

What if I don't want to study there, and rather just live and work there?

Oh boy, we haven't had a self-hatin' scandiboo in these parts a real long while.

I have the opportunity to move to Detroit. I could have a job there doing what I do now and make $40/hr+ on the check, $60/hr+ total. I always hear about how awful Detroit is, but considering I could do a lot more with my money there, is it really that awful? Are there any interesting, somewhat vibrant neighborhoods, or is the whole place an abandoned crime filled wasteland?
B-bump
Grew up in Detroit, left in 2008 when things were at their worst, but I visit at least once a year and all my family and friends are still there. The city is definitely coming back. Where you live depends on what you are looking for. There are great affluent neighborhoods, nice blue collar areas, young hipster areas. What type of place are you interested in living in? What are some of your hobbies? Where are you working and how far do you want to travel?
Let me know, OP, would love to help.
Pic related, Belle Isle - fucking awesome.

Is Japan safe to visit nearly 4 years after Fukushima?
a friend of mine just got back after a year studying in fukushima university, idk how high the radiation is. It's not Chernobyl though.
sry for my bad english.

No Japan is pretty much a barren wasteland, think something like you would see in Fallout

Here's my travel map. I didn't feel like coloring a US one..
I've just been to California, Nevada (Reno) and Hawaii (Oahu). I plan on visiting Hawaii again this winter to the Big Island.
Hey /trv/
I'm travelling to Freiburg, Germany on January as an exchange student. I'll be staying there for 2 months bettering my german.
I wanted to ask you guys what are some cool places/cities to visit in Germany, or near Freiburg (France, Switzerland, Lichtenstein).
Also, I wanted to know of any cheap ways of travelling through Europe/Germany. What I could find online was much more expensive than I thought.
Any other advice about Freiburg/Germany/Europe is welcome!
Thanks in advance
Germany has recently opened the market for long-distance buses, and they're dumping the hell out of one another. You can travel to any city for just a few EUR.
http://meinfernbus.de/en
check out strassbourg if you want to see a beautiful french/german city. also they have a lot of really beautiful small town around if you are into that. in europe you can hitch hike if you feel like it, otherwise we have carsharingsites and cheap busses
>>1049338
seconded, it's really great for visiting another town for a day or two
if there's any inconvenience they often give you a free ticket for another ride or ~15€ discount or something
Sadly i'm from nordrhein westphalia so i can't help you out otherwise
My friend and his girlfriend are planning a trip through the US. They're thinking of starting in California and then making their way through the southern states to Florida. However, he's white and his girlfriend is black. As a mixed-race couple, will they be ok? Especially in the south-east and in Texas.. Are there any areas they should avoid?
....bruh.

Not really. If the dude was black and the girl white they might run into some issues in the bible belt.
