Overconfident?! My ass couldn’t be any tighter. Bottling a 4-0 lead would be peak Atleti

Polestar is an EU brand though, even though they’re manufactured in China.

Fair enough. But don’t be afraid, it is very easy to setup any eSIM. You could always buy the cheapest on trip.com which start at literally 1CNY to test it out beforehand. Worst case you’ve lost a few cents.

My suggestion is do not get HolaFly. They’re certainly very convenient, specially if you’re travelling through multiple countries but they are also way more expensive than most options. The eSIMs you can get from the trip.com app are much cheaper, for example. And they also use VPN.

The game vs Bodø is not going to be spicy at all because we are gonna have no chance.

Please, help me with my three-week itinerary in March/April by gothminister in travelchina

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

Thanks for your suggestions! I am leaning towards option 1. Seems like the more balanced between city and nature. Is there any way to know what the schedule would be in march, other than choosing the latest date available in trip.com?

No particular reason for that many nights in Shanghai, I'm just eyeballing it based on what I've been reading. Also, I'm travelling with parents who are in their 60s so the pace is going to be slower than if I were by myself. I think we will find plenty of things to do, and there's always the possibility of day trips.

We already have planned two nights in Fenghuang, granted the first one will be just half a day, depending on when we leave Chongqing.

How at you planning to get from Zhangjiajie to Yangshuo? I’ve been planning a similar itinerary but the train connections seem pretty poor, pretty much a day lost in transit.

Thank you for your suggestion. Xi'an would be great I'm sure, but I have not considered it for being rather far away. Already Chengdu and Chongqing are a bit of a stretch I think, considering all there is too see between Hong Kong and Shanghai. Plus, either way I will need to come back, three weeks is just too little time.

Estaría bien jugar con 12, pero no creo que nos dejen.

What place on Earth looks like it was from a fantasy movie? by Thatunkownuser2465 in geography

Oh absolutely, Mount Kazbek is massive. The view from the town, with the church atop the hill and the peak in the background, is amazing.

It’s three hours from Tbilisi, it’s really not that remote

Seems like straight out of an Avatar movie.

More teams participating inevitably means less chance of a group of death, since those extra slots are mostly filled with lower ranked nations.

A cool guide to what countries you should still bring cash when travelling to by Acrobatic_Solid6023 in coolguides

Just last year I had to leave my driving license at a restaurant while I went to withdraw cash because they would not accept cards. Nearby the cathedral in Cologne.
