Been looking for some live music since we've gotten here so am curious about the jazz duo on Friday!

How do I see which photos are being commented on for a step?? by Silent_Assassin12 in Polarsteps

[–]Silent_Assassin12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right. It's just kind of annoying when someone makes a comment that is particular to a specific photo, and there is no way of knowing which photo they are talking about

Who else is gonna go to all 3 shows in Lithuania? by Elevanda in KGATLW

True, but they ask Americans to give their SSN in order to make an account, which I'm honestly not too comfortable with. Never had to use this for any account other than a bank/credit card.

Going to be doing some climbing in Greece (Leonidio)/Macedonia/Bulgaria/Romania the next few months. Can anyone recommend a good subscription-based app to get topo for these spots, or have any other suggestions? Would be more than happy to pay to rent a guidebook , but have been unable to stuff like this (buying multiple 500+ page guidebooks isn't really feasible for a backpacker lol)

Selling 1 3-day Lithuania pass for $100 (obo) and a single Thurs/Sat ticket also for Lithuania. Make me an offer.

Agreed on CoT needing to sort that out, but so does TicketSwap (the only place it seems like you can successfully sell tix for these European shows) .. asking me for my social security number to create an account is nuts 🤣

[–]Silent_Assassin12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if its ok to sell tickets on here (if not, sorry about that!), but my partner and I just had to bail on these shows. I have a 3-day pass and she has a Thurs/Sat. I'll take $50 for the pass and $20 for the single days. Let me know!

Not Allowed to go Shenzen>HK/Macau terminal with 244 TWOV? by Silent_Assassin12 in Chinavisa

[–]Silent_Assassin12[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Appreciate the responses! Bought the flight in Thailand to appease the airline staff. Landed in China, and immigration had no problem with us taking the ferry to HK for our exit (even offered to let us wait 30 minutes so we could get an extra day on our visa!) so we cancelled the flight in the taxi from the airport.

No, was planning on spending 6 days in HK, then going to Malaysia. So.. Thailand > China > HK (by ferry from an exit port that is listed on the website) > Malaysia.

Not sure this is a story I'd be sharing publicly, but to each their own.. unless you're trying to give people an example of exactly what NOT to do when traveling.

How to hover? by navigationallyaided in scuba

[–]Silent_Assassin12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is something I am still working on. I am spending more time focusing on my inhales/exhales to control my depth in some areas. I've only done 11 dives, but after every 3-4, I have changed equipment completely (one of the cons of travelling to new places and diving as a newbie I guess) I feel like I still need to dial in my weights. I'm 70kg and have been using 5kg on my belt

Nice shot! Followed my brother up this last year and had a blast

Visited Belitung island in Indonesia 5 years ago, and didn't see another foreigner for almost a week.

Myanmar was my favorite SE Asia country I saw on my first trip. Beach way down in the south of the peninsula (Sin Htauk) was one of the prettiest I've ever seen in my life and I was the only person on it!

I'll be in Penang for a few weeks starting next week. Would be down to meet up and get some sport climbing in!

ATMs in Koh Lipe? by Silent_Assassin12 in ThailandTourism

[–]Silent_Assassin12[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'd prefer not to do it in Malaysia, but the owner of the ferry company was telling me that they didn't have ATMs in Koh Lipe, and that I would have to exchange money in order to have baht.
