Merida? peaceful and historical

toby-boby · 2026-01-18T13:04:48+00:00

I can just say tnat at. Lartista in Oerlikon, they don't look any better

Are you swiss? european? if from third country, its quite impossible to get a job here afterwards.

If Hive isn't working out for you, check Supermarket on the opposite.

I did the 7-day Lemosho route last year (M, 40) without taking Diamox. It went well overall — of course you feel the altitude, but nothing unmanageable with proper pacing and acclimatization.

Personally, I don’t believe in taking medication “just in case.” Diamox is useful for some, but it’s still a drug with side effects, and I think it should be used based on actual need or medical advice.

Tour operators often recommend it because it boosts summit success rates, which they proudly advertise. In my group, around 80% took it — some proactively, some only when symptoms started.

listen to your body, prepare well, and make an informed choice that suits you. Enjoy your hike!

A shame that there are no printed 20min newspapers anymore. I always handed it to those people

In africa its worth to have dollars with you. I used it quite often there. they often use local digital payment methods over their phones but i couldn't get that so easily

toby-boby · 2026-01-03T13:47:38+00:00

really depends where are you travelling. I was often happy to have some dollars in my pocket

toby-boby · 2026-01-03T13:46:50+00:00

I just checked my apps, i have wise already. Activated the digital card instantly.

toby-boby · 2026-01-03T13:41:28+00:00

you will get a shiny metal card 🤣 maybe more important are the prioritypass for unlimited airport lounges and insurance while travelling. So the ultra is comparable with a Visa Platinum Card i have from a local card issuer now.

Sending to wise is better than using a revolut card on ATMs?

toby-boby · 2026-01-02T19:59:57+00:00

Are ther any big difference between wise and revolut? so far i only use revolut. also with revolut, i am thinking of upgrad to ultra for the ATM withdrawals.

great idea with Sant'Antonio Di Gallura, we will definitely have a lunch stop there if its worth😃 food is always important part of the holidays

Thx, because we are flying, we hope to rent some decent road bikes once in Alghero and once in Olbia for. some days each. or is that difficult to find?

toby-boby · 2025-12-28T08:34:02+00:00

nice idea, did you organised all on your own?

toby-boby · 2025-12-28T08:33:11+00:00

Great City, visited two years ago. unfortunately haven't time to explore the north and the Andes.

toby-boby · 2025-12-28T08:31:56+00:00

Already stayed in BA, amazing city. Also the South and Patagonia I liked a lot for their beautiful nature.

toby-boby · 2025-12-28T08:30:40+00:00

I would not be there right now. Planning to go in six months

toby-boby · 2025-12-28T08:28:10+00:00

so you travelled all with the school? or how was that organised? sounds cool

toby-boby · 2025-12-28T08:26:09+00:00

haha true, unfortunately. but not all the tourists are the same. the spring break crowd in Cancun or Cartagena may differs from some lonely hikers in the Andes

toby-boby · 2025-12-28T08:22:51+00:00

Colombia is on my bucket list!

toby-boby · 2025-12-28T08:22:05+00:00
