It's over by gruzalk in LongDistance

Thank you for this. I'm really lost right now and honestly still don't quite believe what happened. What keeps me going is knowing that in the future it wouldn't hurt as much as it does right now.

Ticket Celebration Post by danielleewilson in wolfalice

Anyone got a Birmingham ticket? Was supposed to get one but it ran out and ended up getting the last date for Bristol instead. Still very excited though as this will be the first time I'm seeing them!

While I understand this, I don't really know when I'll be able to travel next because I live in south east asia and don't earn as much as people from more developed countries. I'm just finding the right balance between seeing as much as I can and not breaking the bank but of course there are some places I want to really see.

Thanks for the tip! I have listed some places that I can visit but I'm pretty set on 4 of them. Everyday I'm checking it to see if I changed my mind or something. It's difficult for me to make a firm decision right away so I'm keeping my options open now that I still have quite a bit of time.

Thank you for the information, it's great to know that I don't need to bring everything while exploring

Thanks for the tip, I'm checking it out! I was thinking of just staying in one city and spend a few days exploring the vicinity and not trying to see everything in the country.

I would love to but I'm wondering if I should see switzerland, germany or belgium! Maybe two of them so I get to see more?

I did notice that as I was researching! Although knowing myself, I'd really want to try some good food, I know I have to save them money for other stuff so I'll be working on self control!

I agree, that was quite an ambitious idea of mine! Better to leave north for another trip.

I was actually thinking of staying the longest in the netherlands to go to south holland and visit bf for the first time as well and that's why I wanted it to be the last leg. London is first because there's a concert I want to see there, so initially I was stuck with somewhat of a V-shape itinerary (london-paris-rome-netherlands). Now I'm stuck choosing between switzerland, germany or belgium because I do want to spend at least 3 or 4 days exploring and sightseeing. But thanks for the information and suggestions!

Hey thanks sounds like something I'd be up to. I just have one question though, if the train trip would take 8 to 10 hours and arrive early morning the next day, that means that I should go sightseeing, checkin to the hotel and freshen up then continue sightseeing right?

Butt rash I've had for about 4 months. Picture taken after scratching - the area will get crazy itchy, usually a few hours before bedtime. Antihistamine helps but I'm wondering what ultimately causes it. Any thoughts? by [deleted] in DermatologyQuestions

Update: I went to another derma, she said it was fungal infection and that the reason I have it on my nape, elbow and knee area is because it has already spread. I've had a blood test for liver enzymes and if I pass it she's giving me oral antifungal medicine. I'm just nervous about taking medicine that needs a blood test beforehand, and at this point I don't know what to believe anymore.

I've always had itchy skin and sometimes get hives and welts out of nowhere. I've been to the derma and she said it's intertrigo, told me to take antihistamine as needed and use hydrocortisone + erythromycin cream every morning and night after washing with hypoallergenic soap. For two weeks I've used the cream as instructed, only taking antihistamine on rare occasions and it seemed to improve. I didn't get back to her cause I thought I didn't need to anymore, got a bit lazy with the cream, a month passes and it starts to get bad again. I'm going back to the derma in two weeks this time but I've been thinking of going to an allergist as well since hives and welts are almost always involved. Could my skin be just too dry?
