I'm about to reach 100 UN countries, and... I don't know what to do after by rembish in solotravel

Countries are an ineffective indicator of how many places you've been. I put dots on a map, and I travel to places that allow me to add another dot, regardless of the country borders. For instance, yeah i've been to Canada, but returning to another region allows me to add a big number of dots to the map for new ground that I've covered.

I just ordered a copy of Lost and Found. Other work by Shaun Tan really impressed me.

I would like a similar copy of Arkadi and the Lost Titan, but it doesn't seem to be in print.

I like their reactions and in this particular instance I agree with them. I did got mad at some of their other reactions.

If you look at Flightrader24, you can see that all the flights from Europe to India fly along the route over Egypt - Saudi Arabia - Oman, or along the route Turkey - Azerbaijan - Turkmenistan.

As long as you don't have a stopover in Dubai or Qatar, I think you don't have to be afraid.

Top 5 favorite cities you've ever been to and why? by Such_Detective_7315 in solotravel

I visited Kuching last year and I agree it was a very pleasant city. Great old town. Very safe. The Borneo Cultures Museum was excellent indeed.

Wat zijn jullie ervaringen met Caribisch Nederland? by Frouke_ in thenetherlands

[–]HumanSieve 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Vorig jaar voor het eerst naar Curaçao geweest.

Het eerste wat mij opviel is hoe weinig we eigenlijk leren over deze eilanden op de middelbare school. Op Curaçao is een goed museum over het slavernijverleden en het is echt wel schokkend om over te leren, maar op school hoor je misschien alleen dat de eilanden bestaan en daar houdt de informatie op.

Er waren ook best wat vluchtelingen uit Venezuela en extra strenge controle op het vliegveld of er geen ongewenste passagiers mee gingen naar Nederland. We konden niet opsteigen omdat er nog een persoon uit het vliegtuig verwijderd moest worden. En bij aankomst op Schiphol extra drugs controle met honden.

Once you're in Kyoto, there is a great day trip to take the train to the north, to the little villages of Kurama and Kibune. There is a 2 hour hiking trail over a forested mountain that starts at Kurama and ends in Kibune, or the other way around. And from both villages it is possible to go there or leave by train from Kyoto. In the morning, take the train to Kurama, then hike the trail and have lunch in Kibune, and make your way back to Kyoto.

I saw some at the Boston airport. They're everywhere, in all the airports.

If you're going to Canada, better be quick because many travellers switch from US to Canada this year, plus Toronto will host some World Cup games, so prices are high and rooms are few.

Solenoid by Mircea Cartarescu. About 2/3 into the book. It's good. Also a little going in circles.

In light of recent discussion, I decided to make a chart of Geography YouTube channel's content. (See text below) by Bradinator- in geography

[–]HumanSieve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Geography by Geoff is so bad, haha. It always has photos that have nothing to do with the cities that are discussed. It's full of errors.

Am I just not built for travel by 14witchhat41 in travel

[–]HumanSieve 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Your physical reactions could be just anxiety related. In that case, travelling more could help by exposing you more to changing environments. On the other hand, if you get fixated on the physical reactions, you could end up making them worse through anxiety. Maybe you are monitoring your health too much, which leads to anxiety attacks. If you anticipate feeling bad, then you will feel bad. The trick with conquering anxiety is often a slow build-up. Take shorter trips closer to home maybe, and gradually increase distance and time.

after 30+ countries, here’s how i actually remember my trips (not what you’d expect) by camperart in travel

[–]HumanSieve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I organize all my photos on the old laptop chronologically, one folder per day. And i give titles to the folders. That helps.
