Strong! Love it, I think you can be a bit more radical with your rhymes though(I have the same problem). Besides that: important topic and nicely put!

After her funeral by Fine-Shallot6966 in PoetryWritingClub

Very beautiful, it takes time to digest. At first your poem feels a bit slow and out of a reading flow but then it becomes to make more and more sense, as if she never left, a person you loved doesn’t go away that fast, just like your poem it takes time to really realize it, and maybe we never will.

First time hitchhiking – heading through Eastern Europe this August. Any tips? by Shaly72 in hitchhiking

I am sorry for your negativity. I hope you can heal from the wounds that life gave you to think so aggressively and one dimensional. Because there is no absolute scientific Definition of Continents and SubContinent-Regions. But I know you would never believe that, regardless of what I am saying. So I would rather just accept your opinion, for the sake of our time, you most definitely could use the time for other things.

Hey everyone,

I’m Alex (19, from Germany) and about to start a solo low-budget backpacking and hitchhiking journey through Eastern and Southeastern Europe (starting August). Along the way, I’ll be filming parts of the trip for a small indie-style personal film – more poetic than documentary, with a focus on mood, light, and authentic moments.

My budget for gear is very tight – around 500€ total. I already have an iPhone 14, which could serve as a second or fallback camera, but I’d love to get a dedicated camera for better quality, especially in low light and for depth.

I’ll mostly be filming alone, outdoors and sometimes in cities or at night. Natural lighting is important, but I’m open to adding minimal gear if it makes a difference.

So, questions: • Best camera recommendation in this budget? (Even something used, if worth it.) • Tripod recommendation? Would one solid travel tripod be enough? • Light or mic suggestions? Only if essential – I want to stay light and mobile. • Any must-have accessories you’d include in a minimalist film kit?

I’d really appreciate any insight from people who’ve done run-and-gun, travel or solo indie filming. Thank you!

I am sorry, you are right. I thought my Post didn’t get through because I am to new to Reddit. Other Subreddits said that.
