I am an artist and naturally work best in a bohemian environment. I do not know if the places I have in mind can offer that for me so if there is a city or town that may be better suitable for me and what I would like, please recommend it!

Really? Well I don't have any personal experience in the area, but I'd be lying if I said that your choice of the UAE did not come as a surprise to me, but maybe it is worth checking out and I've been to quick to dismiss it simply as "Vegas in a turban", is there more to UAE than just Dubai? Or is there more to Dubai than I've given them credit for?

I've never been to St. Petersburg, other than the one in Florida, but I can understand why...

I just came back from a 2 week holiday there. Nice people, Good alcohol and beers, laid back environment. I sugest you to get a dublin pass and leap card if you are staying in dublin. Dublin pass let you enter a lot of museums and attractions. Leap pass let you use buses, luas and the other trains which I dont recall their names. Lots of bus tours, I highly recommend the ghost tour in dublin. Good luck with your travel

You should expect paying over the odds on mediocre food, museums and accommodation

OP here, thanks for the reply!

This is what i need to hear; i don't mind the challenge amigo! I feel i will be fully capable of making this trip happen. Considering the fact i graduate collage next May; i have no reason not to attempt to see as many cities and sights and humanly possible during this trip. ill be 27 and experienced; having backpacked multiple continents prior to doing this trip. I consider myself in my prime.

I realized what I'm getting into, and I'm aware this trip...

I've been many times. The stock answer to this, which I got from friends in Northeastern Thailand, is that it's like Northeastern Thailand was 30 years ago.

This isn't all that accurate, but Laos is like a much smaller, much poorer, quasi-Communist (the government is revolutionary in origin, and authoritarian in practice, but there is little effective socialism in place, limited propaganda or iconography, and market liberalization has been an increasing fact of life since I started visiting 20+...

this is so accurated,
also the food and drinks are a lot more expensive than Thailand,
they import most of things from Thailand and Vietnam.

is ashville walkable at all? im going there in august and i dont have a car will this be a problem?

You could go to the dark corner in SC it's not too far away and has moonshine
It also has some great mountain views

if your still around pic related is probably the most boring thing you can do there. i haven't been in probably 10 years. but to tour the biltmore is like being trapped on a rollercoaster. all the rooms look the same and you cant escape you kind of had to finish the route to get out. id just check it out from the outside.

Yeah - theres this nice little spot past Constitution Ave and Dundas. It's called "The Dirt Nap" and its situated in a drainage ditch just off to the right of the road. BYOBlankets.

Ugh, avoid anything cheap and downtown while in Portland. Your fellow guests are junkies, career hobos, vagrants, drug addict, black hustlers, druggie burnouts, thieves, bedbugs, roaches, etc. They're cleaning up downtown (praise Jesus), so it's hard to find anything decent without spending $$$

Instead, you could get a cheap room out in Beaverton or North Portland (a little sketchy) and just take the MAX into downtown.

Downtown sucks, Portland is better up in the inner SE and NE. Airbnb has a couple cuck sheds you can rent for like $30/night.

just go to airbnb like everyone else

If you're traveling short term I'd imagine pump n dumps to be the popular option.

That's what I did anyways.

My now gf i met because I'm living in the country for 1+ years. Companionship is better than being on the prowl constantly in that situation.

But 2 weeks? What are you really expecting?

>is romance and sex when travelling common or is it just a meme

Depends on the type of places you go to and when. When I went interrailing when I was 18 in July sex was at least reasonably common. I'm not quite as OTT as /trv/ who say that women are falling over themselves to sleep with you but I had sex a couple of times in 2 months and of course your classic chads were having it quite frequently. The route round I took was very easy, straight into city centres, not at all...

If you're 6'2", Australian, muscular and a surfer, it's gonna be easy as pie. If you're not, you're gonna have to rely on luck and your wit. Hostels in Europe are full of the former type.

You can maximize your chances by staying in party hostels, of course, or by going to destinations where people implicitely go to party and have sex.

If you're at a random hostel in some city in Europe that is not known for being a party destination, few girls will be there to have sex...

I'm from Switzerland, no idea what you're interested in or your budget so can't really give any advices beside:
Budget: Even with $100/day it's a hobo tier experience, yes switzerland is this expensive.
1. August is the national holiday so there's usually some cool shit going on.
13. August is Street Parade in Zurich, one big rave in the center of the city

I like nature stuff like hiking also swimming. I like electronic music and drinking. Just walking around sight seeing and experiencing local culture. Trying some good food. You guys got castles? Forgot to mention I'll be bringing wife too.

how much money did you spend ?
exclude the plane tickets.

I quite enjoyed my visit to Israel. I would go ad far as saying Jerusalem is a must see bucket list kind of location , although I am admittedly a history nut.

My only real complaint is that it is really fucking expensive. They really know how to jew you out of a shekel.

> I want to keep things fairly cheap
> I was thinking 4-5 days in Paris

Good luck ...

I advise you to take the bus, its really cheap.
What do you whant to do ? Cultural/historical/nature trip or partying hard ?

>>1122186
Try not to get blown up....

But if your in Paris visit the louvre obviously. I thought the audio bus tours were overrated when I went last summer but I enjoyed the guided tours to the wineries in the area they bring you through the vineyards and show you how to make it while you sample the finished product a little pricey if I remember correctly.

For me it was all about visiting Normandy France to see the d day beaches and what not which i found very interesting

Once you get to the airport, go to the information desk and get yourself a museum pass. They're like €50 and last three, four or six days from when you first use it. It's a bit cheaper than what you'd pay to see the museums if you are gonna museum it up and most of the time you get to skip lines, too. Get the shortest time one for cheap and write the starting date on it in light pencil so you can erase it and rewrite it later.

I have no particular experience with Doha, but it def sounds tight.

Problem is that some online sales sites really don't think about this. But if you have bought the ticket directly from the airline, then they will put you on the next flight. If you haven't bought it from the airline, you could get screwed.

Also, you might reach the flight, but it is quite likely that your luggage will not.

>>1121846
I haven't bought ticket yet, but I plan to buy it directly from the airline.
So you're sure Qatar Airways will put me on the next flight without any problem if ever I miss the flight?

>>1121859
If you have bought the ticket directly through them, then it really should not be a problem, they will rebook you for free if you miss the flight. 45 minutes is tight, but maybe it's planned in a way the gates are very close to each other. My guess is if your plane is on time you'll have staff waiting for you at the gate and guide you to the plane directly.

Just make sure you don't need to use the bathroom right after you get off the plane. Assume you need to run straight to the next gate.

I enjoyed the road to Hana and Mt Haleakala. The road to Hana is a famous drive through a beautiful Hawaiian rainforest, so many endemic species of plants. Lots of waterfalls. Mt Haleakala has many great areas to birdwatch. We saw all kinds of cool things. Some endemic plants up on the mountain. Most people get up at ridiculous hours to see the sunrise on the mountain, but we went for sunset and were just as pleased and got to sleep in.

We drove around the coast of the whole island (on accident) and found...

kuala lumpur is kind of gay. it's just a 2nd world capital with semi-functional roads and public transit, with amenities available at cost to nurture foreign capital.

not bad. you can do some fun things that you could do at home at cost in KL, but there's nothing particularly cultural, etc. about it. you won't find much muslim culture, or indian culture, or chinese culture. it's just a city that floods a lot which attracts business.

I'd say there's a fair reason most travelers...

KL is not your best bet, then. Although it's quite green for a "big" city (it's actually pretty modest in size--less than 2M people, or 1/5 the size of Bangkok, for example), it's an urban area. And it's not particularly historic, although there is some late 19th/early 20th-century architecture scattered around, particularly in Chinatown and Brickfields--Melaka, which has a nicely preserved historical...

Hmm, seems to back up my concerns about KL. For the record if I don't detour there it will mean more time in Singapore, Gua Musang and Kota Bharu...
I'm definitely leaning towards missing KL altogether.
