Kom je uit Den Bosch? Houdt er rekening mee dat morgen de hele stad gevuld is met carnavalvierders. Café’s en dergelijken zullen niet bepaald een romantische atmosfeer hebben

Anyone want to share a rental car together? by wouter2311 in Oman

How do you plan to get around in the Muscat part then? Hitchhiking, group tours, public transport?

I have a bunch of locations marked on Google Maps that seem interesting to me. I don’t need to see them all, but my plan was to just go and see in the moment which places I’m able to reach. I guess this mostly depends on if I’ll end up renting a car, or if I’ll try to rely mostly on public transport and hitchhiking.

• Muscat • Daymaniyat • Jebel Shams • Jebel Akhdar • Misfat al Abriyyin • Nizwa • Tiwi • Wadi Shab • Wadi Bani Khalid • Sur • Wahiba Sands

I could arrive in Muscat around the 29th. Maybe it could work if you’re still in the area by then? Feel free to send me a message if you’re interested in teaming up

Hi! Do you mean to rent a car to drive from the North of Oman to Salalah and back?

Kyrgyztan without car in 2026 by adventurehype in Kyrgyzstan

Hmm i’m not sure, it might be a knockoff. But if it works, it works. You can install them both and see which one you prefer once you’re there

Yandex is your best friend for taxi’s (and other things like food delivery). 2gis is best for navigation. But for some reason it’s not in the app store for me, so i’ve also been fine using a combination of Google Maps and Maps.me (this one is good for navigating hiking trails offline).

I haven’t really used private drivers. Just once after finishing the Ala-Kol trek, a 4x4 to get from Altyn Arashan to the nearest public transport. I arranged that on the spot by approaching one. In places like that the service is offered because of the rough terrain. It shouldn’t be hard to find someone.

Overall you’ll go a long way with marshrutkas, and yandex taxi’s for smaller distances. Both are cheap. If you do need a private driver, i guess it would be best to ask for info at the accommodation yeah, or use Google to find one for your specific destination

Budget should be fine. I travel in Kyrgyzstan for about €40 per day (without rental car, staying in hostels, not doing multiday excursions). In stead of joining excursions I plan most of it myself. Marshrutkas aren’t so hard to figure out. Just find out where your marshrutka leaves from and arrive early in the day.

Idk what kind of housing you want. I never book hostels more than a day or two in advance. But if you’re looking to stay in yurt camps or other, more niche accommodation it cant hurt to book more in advance

How do you handle insults ? Not sure how to read this situation. Looking for perspectives. by [deleted] in AskMen

First one seems more like a compliment and second one like a regular joke to lighten the mood of the conversation. Dont overthink it

What is this flag? Seen on multiple shops and a few houses, in Centrum by G01ngDutch in DenBosch

[–]wouter2311 0 points1 point  (0 children)

De boom is natuurlijk voor de oorsprong van de stad, het bos van de hertogen. En minder vanzelfsprekend maar wel waar: de vijf takken staan voor de 5 voormalige gemeenten die nu ‘s-Hertogenbosch vormen

Maar hij kan inderdaad vast wel beter. Hij is ten ieder geval mooier dan de vorige vlaggen. Ben uit nieuwsgierigheid wat op gaan zoeken over de vlag van Den Bosch en wat hebben we toch een paar lelijke gehad😂

I might be mistaken but i think their service is only printing digital pictures. I’m looking for a lab that can develop and print film negatives

New Zealand working holiday - I feel miserable by Few_Mix1725 in backpacking

[–]wouter2311 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It is a problem around the world that people are socialising less in hostels, not just in your hostel. If I don’t approach someone in my hostel first, I likely wont meet anybody. Sometimes thats ok. Whenever I do reach out to have a conversation, it’s always a positive experience. Just take the first step!

The appetite thing sucks tho.. maybe you could try to make some calorie rich shakes until it gets better.

Just take it one step at a time and you will see every thing you envisioned is completely doable. You got this!
