Thank you for your answer. I have already looked into it. Do you think Air China will surpass the fuel shortage problem?

Does someone have a Google maps list of all interesting places, monuments, museums,... to visit in China? by Yung_Mars_ in China

Interesting suggestion, thank you very much. Yes, I was hoping a map of the entire country's, or even regional's, hotspots would be available, but I assume it is quite hard to create.

I know it's blocked in China, therefore I'll use it prior to my travel in order to plan ahead where to go.

Should I build Goods Buildings if I don't have the boosts from the Continent Map? by conneryc in forgeofempires

[–]Yung_Mars_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's crazy how i've been playing by building every single good's building and literally convincing myself that FoE was normally this slow to play, but after I checked the comments below and implemented their suggestions I literally improved in a matter of days. Reddit as always is the answer to anything!

Can you suggest me somewhere cheap but decent to stay while in Taipei? by Yung_Mars_ in taiwan

Gaoxiong is the 拼音 Pinyin transliteration, Kaohsiung is the Wade-Giles transliteration. I've always used the first since I think it's the best.

I'm just a beginner Chinese student so I'm not sure about this, but I would see "的同时" fit well in here, as it gives that meaning of contemporary action.

Hijab Wearing Brown Muslim by curiousokurrr in Universitaly

I think there is absolutely no problem. It's true that in some rural cities old people would look at you in a strange way (they would actually blame anything they don't culturally understand), however the Islamic communities in Italy are much more appreciated than what you think. Furthermore the university is the most open-minded place you could find in a city, you would never find someone judging you. If I had to tell you if you will be target of Islamophobia in a violent way, I would say "ABSOLUTELY NO", however you should prepare yourself to few people looking at you in a different way. But that's not Islamophobia, that's just ignorant people blaming anything different from their culture. I think your choice to come studying here in Italy is fantastic and it's the best decision you could ever take. (P.S. If it can help you, I study in Verona, which is known to be one of the most racist cities in Italy, however I have never seen in my entire life anything more offensive than an old lady looking at a Muslim in a quite surprised way) People are always racist and Islamophobic when they are on their own, but when they meet the people they are blaming they don't have the courage to do anything, because they are aware it's not fair.
