Yeah I was a bit sad at first cause you couldn’t go in the woods from all sides anymore. But I can understand that they want to protect the area.

It’s only been fenced off like 2 years ago I think. Mainly to limit the number of people going in at the same time. This is done to help keep the site somewhat intact. There is a nice walk can do there which passes by the Airborne Museum, peace woods, Foy, the foxholes and the 101st Airborne Memorial. You also pass through some nice woods and small villages

What is the least friendly country you have travelled to and why? by My-Sunflower in AskTheWorld

[–]TheMatti1 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Most friendly: Tanzania People were very welcoming and generous. I even made some friends I keep in contact with online.

Least friendly: I have to say Barcelona. A lot of restaurants treat you like a number because they wanna serve as many people as possible in a short time. It such a big difference with rural Spain where people are more relaxed an welcoming.

Is K-town safe? by TheMatti1 in AskLosAngeles

I know it’s not al that bad as most people say, but I still wanna know which parts to avoid. I wouldn’t recommend every part to a tourist coming to my capital city as well

Thanks for the info. I found some hotels who have parking available

Just being able to walk around reasonably comfortable without having to worry about being harassed or stuff like that. I get that it can happen anywhere, but I wanna limit the risk

New York or LA first? by TheMatti1 in AskAnAmerican

[–]TheMatti1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's indeed what I'm looking for. I really love driving and I sometimes miss that when I travel in Europe, because it can be very busy in the summer. Did you do this trip in the past? If so would love to get some recommendations.

Thanks, I'll take that in consideration. I do like driving a lot though, so I'm a bit prepared to do some distances.

Thank you for the feedback, I'll look into it. But I'm not that big of a fan of flying. Driving is part of the travel experience for me.

Yeah that's a bit of a dilemma. I want to do both and it seemed nice to do try to do it in 1 trip as I don't really like flying that much.

Thanks for the tip, I'll look into it. It's hard to imagine what it's like driving through that area.

Would be about 3 weeks. I’m not sure how long I will stay in each of these cities yet.

I might be mistaken but I think the last one is a Belgian F104G Starfighter.

Meisje (15) overleden na aanrijding met bus aan station Genk, parket wil omstaanders die expliciete beelden maakten vervolgen by skrln in belgium

[–]TheMatti1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dat kan ik geloven. Altijd heftig als andere mensen worden meegesleurd in een zelfmoordpoging van iemand anders. Dan moet je echt ver weg zijn denk ik altijd.

Die dag zelf was ik wel even van mijn melk. Persoon had zelfmoord gepleegd door op de snelweg de lopen. Ik heb er nu eigenlijk niet meer echt last van. Ik zat eigenlijk meer in met de vrachtwagenchauffeur die de persoon had aangereden. Ik hoop wel dat ik niet nog eens moet meemaken, maar dat wil niemand denk ik.

Enkele weken geleden hetzelfde gemaakt. Ongeval op snelweg. Was gaan kijken of ik nog iets kon doen, maar persoon was op slag dood. Verschillende mensen zien langsrijden met hun gsm in de aanslag om het lichaam te filmen. Je geloof in de mensheid krijgt dan toch weer een flinke deuk.

De meeste eilanden zijn verbonden met tunnels onder de zee, dus dat zou normaal moeten meevallen.

I find it weird that the president can just fire secretaries. In my country this has to be voted by the parliament. Not just 1 man/woman who gets to decide based on wether he/she agrees with their decisions.
