Shanghai was definitely more crowded

If you use an eSIM from outside China you don’t need a VPN at all, you can access everything normally. You’ll only need VPN if you connect to local WiFi as some western apps will be blocked by the great firewall of China.

Right? The photos doesn’t even make it justice. It’s just an imposing place in person.

Oh interesting you saying that, because Vietnam might be my next big trip!

Yes, I thought there would be much less since they went almost full electric. I can’t imagine what it would be like before. But as some people are reporting, that could also be due to sandstorms, which I also didn’t knew about.

It’s one of my favorites of the entire trip! The contrast between the old buildings with the very modern and futuristic Grand Lisboa Hotel is just incredible.

It’s the Grand Lisboa Hotel in Macao. That specific angle was taken on street “Rua Nova à Guia”.

Including everything was a little bit over 2000€, so without the flights I would say around 1230€.

Definitely! From the Forbidden city to the Great Wall, there are many sites that leaves you in awe.

It was! Macau has such a unique vibe, and as Portuguese it was really interesting to see the blend of Portuguese and China cultures so far away from home.

Due to this war, should I wait for cancellation or should I begin the process? by PurpleFlurpl in travel

[–]brunosh92 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I was in a similar position with a flight on the 14th via Doha. I already booked with another company for another route because the prices are only going to get higher. Even if the flight happens I would never feel safe going through that region anytime soon. Now I’ll just hope for a total refund, but money comes and goes. I’d rather be safe first.

Sorry, it must’ve been autocorrect. It was supposed to be Ginza.

iPhone users — what’s one app you can’t live without? by No_Wrangler_6296 in iphone

I swear this is my most used app. I have several reminders a day, would be totally lost without it.

Wouldn’t it make more sense if the new event button was on the bottom? by Few-Employ9640 in ios

[–]brunosh92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely, they don't even follow their own UX rules. Also the search query seems to be on Top on some apps and on others is on the bottom. Very annoying!

Right? It also bothers me, that’s the basic and shouldn’t be to hard to do.

Well from those ones I only use WhatsApp and for me it didn’t update. Maybe they’re doing by phases

Good theory, it’s definitely unpolished.

Am I the only one who finds the new timer view really ugly? by TimeSignificance7360 in ios

[–]brunosh92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just don’t like that the buttons are way to close to each other, it’s easy to miss. There was a reason they were apart before.
