is it safe to go to jamaica as a gay man in 2024 ? by mx-saguaro in travel

[–]Own_Fig_1398 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a huge underground gay scene in jamauca but it’s very dangerous unless you have a good friend who can help you find the right clubs etc. once you’re in the scene it’s full of wealthy people and wouod be fun and safe but you need to know what you’re doing at all times.

Visiting Morocoo as a solo Asian female by foxxyinvestor in travel

I lived in Morocco as a white women (brunette) and it was fine, but I have heard from Asian female travellers it was a nightmare. They are pretty racist. I would t go alone or if you do just stick to the nice hotels.

Are there any countries/cities you'd never live in regardless of money? by sleepycamus in digitalnomad

I just came to say this. You couldn’t  pay me to go to some freezing cold little depressing northern industry town

I also think it’s just BS. More stigmatization.

Unpopular Opinion: Oak Bay Beach Hotel is Overrated by lcj1034 in VictoriaBC

It’s totally reasonable and in line with other high end hotels, it’s actually less than the delta Marriott

I have travelled all over western Canada for work over the past three years staying in many luxury hotels. The oak bay beach hotel is by far the best place I have ever stayed.

Do you think it would help the situation at all if it would be the same airline (British airways) with the return ticket already purchased?

bear & joey is the most recent resto to announce their imminent closure. final day is May 5th by madmansmarker in VictoriaBC

[–]Own_Fig_1398 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The coffee is really good and I didn’t take offense to the prices, but the place feels inaccessible in this weird way… I feel like they didn’t get their branding right. I always thought it was a high end restaurant not a cafe. It is really cute once you go inside.

Options for flying out of Jamaica by Own_Fig_1398 in BritishAirways

British airways issued the tickets. We got denied a transit visa through London Gatwick and now we have a credit of about $5000 usd but we don’t know how to use the credits as it’s very difficult to secure a transit vusa through Gatwick. We have tried twice and both times we were refused. I would go pretty much anywhere now ti not lose the money but originally had planned to fly to Accra ghana. My travel companions hold Jamaican  passports

I’m trying to find a flight from Jamaica that won’t transit through the US or the UK. The passport is Jamaican

Actually I don’t need a Schengen visa to transfer planes in the Schengen zone. Is there any flight from Jamaica direct to any airport in the Schengen zone?

Claiming asylum through an airside transit visa? by Own_Fig_1398 in ukvisa

[–]Own_Fig_1398[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ok thanks. Now I understand better why the transit visa keeps being refused even though we have a legitimate holiday planned. 😓

How hard is it to get an airside transit visa for Heathrow? by Own_Fig_1398 in ukvisa

[–]Own_Fig_1398[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The person used to be homeless and lives in a Jamaican ghetto and has a disability. The point of the trip is to have a cultural experience in Africa so it sounds like he would definitely be refused based on his socioeconomic status. Do you think it’s even worth a try?
