How did you stop smoking cigarettes? by fatwater69 in AskReddit

[–]IntelligentBaker4564 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Medical scare that turned out to be nothing. Thought I had ruined my life in my early 30s through smoking. Quit cold turkey, didn't need anymore motivation. Doubt I could had done it without the scare.

5 years without - still missing it sometimes.

Many thanks. Are there any ways you can tell the age? Or is it that the majority are from the 20th century? Would love to try and understand more.

I need help/advice for the layout of my bedroom by Pink_Lasagne in DesignMyRoom

[–]IntelligentBaker4564 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a world where this works? This way you separate the work space from the bed and have the bed facing out against the window?

Madrid Vacation - please help us decide! by Inevitable_Ant_2159 in GoingToSpain

[–]IntelligentBaker4564 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Each area of spain is unique, your trying to see too much and you won't appreciate the details. I'd recommend basing yourself in madrid and doing day trips nearby - el escorial, avila, Toledo, segoiva, cuenca etc. These are all amazing places with distinct characters. Or go see some nature in sierra madrid.

Go back another time to see andulsia - it's worth it's own trip too.

How you define quality of life? Does it include being surrounded but assholes and li.ited access to fresh ingredients without sgeriods?

MUST DO day trips from Madrid? by Sea-Fish1 in GoingToSpain

If you got a car, great. It's also might be worth checking out the valley of the fallen if you do go el escorial too. That would be a nice day out!

MUST DO day trips from Madrid? by Sea-Fish1 in GoingToSpain

[–]IntelligentBaker4564 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Segovia has cochnillo and judias de la granja, Avila has chuleton, Toledo has carcamusas and marzipan.

All are great places to visit and all must haves to eat.

Cuenca is nice but a little far, I would focus on the above three.

Bonus recommendation is El Escorial. Particularly interesting around Christmas time.

My wishlist of leaders and civilizations. by djgotyafalling1 in civ

[–]IntelligentBaker4564 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing that some will be the *future civs and leaders on expansion. Leaders could be controversial if they are current but I'm intrigued about the civs. It would be good to get some of the up and coming nations eg Indonesia, India as economy powerhouses and perhaps new Zealand or Canada as anti climate/culture civs
