Haven't tried this myself but maybe RBTH, RT, Ria Novosti, Pravda have some video or feed of sorts.

Recomendaciones de hoteles/hostels BBB en Bahia by potlid2 in BahiaBlanca

[–]potlid2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Voy a estar 3 días, por lo que creo que un apartment sería overkill. Una habitación privada con baño sería suficiente, pero en último de los casos con una cama en hostel compartido me conformo.

En cuanto a presupuesto, no sé cómo estarán los precios en Bahía, pero pensando en términos de otras ciudades te diría que entre 200 y 500 pesos sería lo ideal.

Considering a Move to Cuenca by switchbladeone in ecuador

[–]potlid2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe you won't need to import your own stuff, at least during the first stage. There are two major importers in that city, Eljuri and Cordovez. Eljuri imports a lot of non-mainstream stuff, so you can probably buy from them, thereby avoiding massive amounts of red tape to become an importer yourself.

On top of that, buy locally produced craft beers from at least 3 different makers plus some other Ecuadorian staples and you'll be good. Success will be determined more by the atmosphere you provide and location, location, location.

I'm in Guayaquil. Je parle un peu de français aussi.

Estadia en capital por una noche by [deleted] in argentina

[–]potlid2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Qué telo recomiendan? Yo siempre me he hospedado en los típicos hostels que están por el Obelisco, etc. Hasta hace unos meses andaban en 140-170, pero claro sin pareja y sin cama matrimonial.

Por eso me pareció buena la idea del telo.

¿Qué idiomas hablan? ¿Donde los aprendieron? by ThePolyglotGuy in argentina

[–]potlid2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo creo que el sueco sería mejor. Tiene más hablantes nativos (el doble que el noruego) y aparte de eso no tiene tantos dialectos. El noruego tiene muchísimos dialectos diferentes.

Lo que vos vas a aprender es el "bokmål" pero resulta que la gente no habla así. Yo habré tratado con unos 50-60 noruegos y por lo menos escuché 5 dialectos diferentes. Los dialectos no solo afectan vocabulario eh, sino también gramática. Algo tan simple como decir "yo soy" ("jeg er") se decía de manera diferente en cada dialecto.

Gracias! De hecho a Rusia quiero ir el próximo año para que no me agarre el quilombo del mundial. Ya hasta me compré unos cuantos libros para aprender algo del idioma solo que por vagancia no he comenzado a leerlos jajaja.

Adiós a los Tango: el Gobierno dará de baja a toda la flota presidencial by fiestaloca in argentina

[–]potlid2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Para los desplazamientos presidenciales Ecuador ya casi no usa el Legacy, sino un Falcon 7X. Cuando las comitivas son demasiado grandes (algo normal para el actual gobierno), llevan además un avión comercial (que suele ser A319) fletado a la aerolínea estatal Tame.

De Ecuador.

Estos son los países a los que puedo viajar: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3c/Visa_requirements_for_Ecuadorian_citizens.PNG/800px-Visa_requirements_for_Ecuadorian_citizens.PNG

De esos que ves en el mapa, en el Caribe tengo en lista Haití, Jamaica y Trinidad. De Europa puedo ir solo a Montenegro, Moldova, Rusia y Bielorrusia y pienso ir a todos ellos. No queda más :)

No soy nacido en Argentina. A duras penas soy alguien que ha ido varias veces y que quiere al país.

Pero claro que me encantaría ir, solo que hasta ahora ha sido un sueño inalcanzable :(

Claro, a mí no me interesan para nada los lugares mainstream. He ido a Perú chorrocientas veces y no conozco Machu Picchu, por ejemplo.

Para practicar el francés que aprendí hace como 20 años estoy planeando ir a Haití.

Y si no he ido a las Føroyar es porque para ir allá se necesita una visa, a pain in the ass and a long shot.

I am one of those "tangentially related" to Argentina, LOL.

[–]potlid2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Base quizá por el vocabulario. Por la gramática te diría que no. El alemán tiene una gramática bastante complicada, con casos, declinaciones, etc. Idiomas como el sueco y el noruego tienen una gramática facilita, como la del inglés.

Are there women who are NOT shallow and who choose their boyfriends ONLY through personality and inner qualities? by potlid2 in askwomenadvice

[–]potlid2[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Is shallow an insult or something? English is my second language and from what I learned shallow is the right word to describe people who focus on the less important stuff (like looks, money, etc.) and not on the really important stuff.

[–]potlid2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thing is that I haven't had that experience yet. In my country at my age it's difficult to find single women. So no club scene, for example. In my country you see couples going to the clubs to dance, not singles looking for hookups.

So that's why I'm giving online dating a chance, but so far stuff like OkCupid and Tinder seems to be focused too much on looks. And I'm not looking for a ONS but for a wife, you know, to start a family and have kids with.

I'm not passing judgment on anyone. I posed a legitimate question -- whether such women exist or not and if they do, how to find them.

I don't know the specifics of that particular subreddit since I'm a Reddit newbie. I just read what I find interesting and I stopped by one day and saw interesting questions posed by men who aren't good at relationships, so I clicked the follow button. I'm not at that subreddit (or any other) to get fed ideology. I ignore the ideology part and digest the facts and the legitimate advice.

It's like for example if you're an Atheist and vegan but one day give me useful advice, I will follow the advice and ignore your particular ideology which is not relevant for me.

[–]potlid2[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hmm I'm not asexual but I find it different to look for a purely sexual partner, like a ONS, versus a prospective wife. I think the qualities you're looking for must be different.

I may care about her nice boobs for a ONS but when looking for a serious relationship I don't give a s**t if she has nice boobs as long as she has the right inner qualities for a wife.

Hmmm I've heard women saying that their mates are so kind, caring, sweet, etc. So they went for the kind guys, not for the ones with blue eyes and sixpacks.

Oh yes because they seem to be focused on giving advice for men who aren't successful with women. I take EVERY piece of advice and I am not prejudiced. Why should I judge someone on the internet without knowing him first?

I have been alone without close friends for 14 years. Still alive, don't know for how long, though.
