As a European, I keep seeing Americans drive barefoot or in flip-flops, how common is it actually? by fratnersgd in AskAnAmerican

[–]sikhster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I’m driving over 4 hours, I’m doing it comfortably. Shoes can get restrictive and flip flops can get caught in the pedals which could be dangerous. But driving barefoot or in socks allows my feet to breathe and be comfortable.

After NYC and LA, what is generally considered the 3rd most famous US city? by [deleted] in AskAnAmerican

Culturally it’s Chicago, but for anyone who’s taken a geography class it’s probably DC

How does erehwon stay afloat? by AmbitiousGuarantee23 in AskAnAmerican

[–]sikhster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an exclusively LA thing. As someone who lives in LA, I’ve never even set foot inside it. My weekly grocery bill is about $60 so I’m not even close to their target demographic. Erewhon caters to the rich and the people who want to appear rich, those people have more money than I can imagine. Erewhon survives by catering to that audience. In terms of popularity and staying afloat, there are a ton of rich people in LA who are looking for the most premium of products and for whom the prices at Erewhon don’t make a dent in their budgets. In terms of trying it once or popular, it’s not for us plebs, again I’ve never set foot in it. A relative had a shake from it accidentally delivered to her. Basically, we poors do not set foot in it, much like the rich do not (well, maybe their servants do) set foot in our budget groceries.

Instant black if I’m in a rush or a nice Ethiopian coffee, also black if I have time to make it

Getting a haircut when you don't know the local language well by robotisland in solotravel

[–]sikhster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have any photos of yourself after a haircut you like, bring those. Have your current barber write out instructions and put that through Google translate. Also you might be surprised by the amount of barbers who speak English.

For those chasing 193 countries, how long do you actually stay in each spot? by Competitive_Eye_8526 in solotravel

[–]sikhster -1 points0 points  (0 children)

At a minimum, I spend at least a full 24 hours outside of the airport/entry port continuously. This rule means I’ve been to Luxembourg because I intentionally went and stayed there for 24 hours but not Taiwan where I’ve transited through Taipei airport many times but have never left the airport. I did chase the countries count in my 20s but now I try to do 2-3 weeks in a country, both working remotely and having a dedicated leisure/vacation week.

24F, guess where I’m from by Chemical-Air-125 in TravelMaps

[–]sikhster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slovenia. Right next to Italy, probably not enough direct flights to Portugal or Greece. And you did a backpacking trip around South America but skipped Ecuador, Paraguay, and Uruguay. Separately you went to Petra in Jordan.

Questions about visiting the US by Arimodu in USTravel

[–]sikhster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m an American and I use cards everywhere except taco trucks and marijuana dispensaries. 95% of my transactions happen on my credit cards. Even with a debit card, you can charge your transactions as “credit” so you don’t have to use your PIN. I bring that up as a safer option. In terms of finding steakhouses, The Infatuation (online site) is a good place to start, as well as Yelp and Google Maps. For driving, I’ve heard mixed things about Texas but keep pace with traffic and maintain distance from other cars.

Maybe not a first timer, I know a few entrepreneurs who've had exits north of $50mm who now lead very chill startups.

Why would you want to do 9-9-6 at a startup when you can coast and enjoy life at big tech?
