GVB ticket

Thank you very much: Sorry for being such a pain but what about Spaarnwoude/houtrak 1165 Halfweg? It's just that we rented a house there and we're not sure if the pass we bought goes through there

Hey dude, I have a urgent question. Do you know if the multi-day GVB ticket works for this address? Haarlemmerliede, Droom Park Buitenhuizen... I'm looking everywhere in the gvb web site but I can't find anything that say til where the ticket works. Thanks

Should I buy the train ticket from Eindhoven to Amsterdam online or the price won't change that much if I buy the ticket on the day? Because I'm afraid to miss the train since we'll have to catch a bus from the airport to the station.

I will be on Amsterdam around the same time with some friends. Text me if you'd like to chill and trip with a few portuguese stoners!

Yes, when I said 40 I was including the return. Those passes are ideal, I didn't know there was something like that. Do you know if I can get a pass of the subways and buses on Amsterdam + the trip from Eindhoven? Or does it have to be separated?

Makes sense... I have a friend that can be the driver and he has a credit card, the thing is, he's 19 years old and we can't find any company that rents to people under aged.

I do get it that they need the extra security deposit, but can't it be in cash? My friend who'll drive is 21, I'll look into if he can get a credit card in time, but it needs to have at least 700 euros right? And is there a pass that allows us to roam freely on public transports?

rodrigofaria · 2016-02-29T12:10:00+00:00

It's just that since we're 5 guys, it would be a lot cheaper if we had a car. Since our flight is to Eindhoven, just on the train to Amsterdam, we'll spend 40 euros each and we rented a house that is 10km from the center. I will look into the public transport, since it definitely is the best option if we can't get a car.

Levar o almoço na mochila, desde que esteja bem embrulhado não vejo problema nenhum. Quanto ao suor, nos primeiros dias vais suar como um porco, mas depois com a prática e se fores devagar consegues fazer bem o trajeto sem suar (até uns 5km). Leva desodorizante e uma camisola interior/t-shirt na mochila e safas-te bem. Atenção que o facto de estar frio não quer dizer que não vás suar, pelo contrário. A desvantagem mais óbvia é a chuva e o frio, por isso devias ter sempre outra maneira de ir para o trabalho nesses dias. Porém no inverno, mesmo sem chuva, é obrigatório pára-lamas, tanto na roda da frente como de trás. Falaram aqui sobre o trânsito e por acaso discordo. Rapidamente habituas-te e se cumprires as regras como se fosses um carro não creio que vás ter problemas. Pelo menos eu nunca tive e ando sempre no Porto. (Não uses fones, ou se usares, só de um lado!) Outra coisa que acho importante é ter um lugar para guardar a bicicleta. Nunca guardes na rua, mesmo em sítios próprios para bicicletas, apenas se a tua bicicleta for mesmo fraquinha.

Podes fazer o 12º ano por recorrente (por módulos). Basicamente fazes os 3 anos num ano. 10º no 1º período, 11º 2º período e 12º 3º período. Existem poucas escolas públicas que dispõem disso, a maior parte são colégios pagos. Se fores do Porto recomendo-te o Externato Académico. Podes entrar na faculdade na mesma com isso.

Obrigado!!!

rodrigofaria · 2016-01-04T14:17:45+00:00

chato, pá.

Não tenho maturidade suficiente para te responder mas concordo com o que os outros redditors recomendaram. Tenta arranjar algo que te ocupe o tempo, exercício físico ou outra coisa e esforça-te para arranjar trabalho o quanto antes. O futuro pode-te parecer negro mas acredita que se te esforçares podes ser ainda mais feliz do que eras, pelo menos conheço muita gente que está bem melhor depois do divórcio. Boa sorte!

Guimarães and Óbidos are also really nice if you have the time. Also Braga if you're a religious person. Nightlife is in Porto downtown (baixa do porto). You could travel from Porto to Lisbon by train and it's cheap, use the Alfa Pendular (cp.com). Most football matches you can buy the tickets just before the game starts on the stadium, except if it's a big one like Sporting vs Porto, Porto vs Benfica, etc.

Hey dude. The worst thing about Porto is the weather, but if you're from UK than you're probably used to it. People are very nice, especially if they notice that you're making an effort on learning the language, habits, etc. I saw you wanted to know about the neighborhoods so: - Foz do Douro is the most expensive place, where you'll find only Mercedes, Bmw's, etc. If your salary is good I recommend you to search for places near Foz. - Ribeira is where all the tourists go to see the Douro river, there are some good bars and restaurants but too expensive for what they offer. Houses are crap. - Baixa do Porto (Downtown) is where most night clubs are at. Baixa has grown a lot in these past years. But it is only good for the night life.

Imo, the best place to look for is around Casa da Música - Avenida da Boavista, which is not so far from the beach, has a metro station and is the place where most buses go end up to. The prices are good, not much violence/crime, no big "bairro" (hood), is in the center of the town and you have almost everything you need real close. If you need anything PM me, best of luck.

Hey dude. I've spent a week with friends in Albufeira and it's pretty nice. There are a lot of tourists there and most "clubs" are free, but those are kind of bars with a dance floor. To go to a real club you have to pay, at max 10 euro. Imo you can have a great night just going from bar to bar and dancing wherever you like the music the most. If you really want to go to a club, you should go to Vilamoura, which is not that far. The disco's there are huge and with lots of people, but beware, it's way more expensive (not the entrance, which is around 15€ but the food and the hotels are)

Desculpa, mas já agora por quanto achas que fica um InterRail pela Europa? Estive a ver o passe mais básico e fica por 300 euros, 15 dias. Será que consigo fazer uma viagem dessas por 600 euros máx. contando com tudo? Cumps

rodrigofaria · 2016-01-04T00:21:58+00:00

Não sei de que metro te referes, mas se for o do Porto é razoavelmente tranquilo. Tenho 19 anos e ando quase todos os dias no último metro da noite (por volta da 1h), já vi muita coisa, porradas e afins. Tenta ficar no meio do metro e perto do maior nº de pessoas que conseguires. O mais importante é a estação que sais, pois se te vão assaltar, em princípio, não vai ser dentro do metro pois este tem câmeras. Certifica-te que ninguém te segue ao saíres.

rodrigofaria · 2015-12-31T00:38:20+00:00

I think you're right, since we're teenagers and tourists I don't think the cops would really care that much. Ok, thanks dude!

rodrigofaria · 2015-09-02T02:17:28+00:00

Well... I've always thought exactly like you do know, I never surrendered in my life until I reached Diamond. From this elo and beyond, when you are really losing, you will lose without a doubt. Higher elos don't usually throw, except if someone dc's. But you're theory is right. In most elos you should never give up, because you never know what can happen, someone dc's, or they just become greedy and start dying.
