The only reason a man should be traveling is for business or to find a wife. If you’re paying $2k to go visit a beach in Thailand or Dubai then you’re not gonna make it.

>>57216811
Discovering culture (and actually engaging with them, not staying in the hotel) makes you a more refined individual, more cultured, expands your worlds view and make you more appreciative of your own culture.

I'd say that travels, books, clothes you feel nice in and good meals with people you love is what life is all about.

Picrel, I experienced awe for the first time seeing this at Florence. It's beyond money and "wealth".
I will go back there before I die, for sure.

>>57217199
Ok, that makes much more sense

>>57217225
Travelling to feel awe at seeing a cock is the gayest thing I've read all year

>>57217207
Unless 2k is your daily pay - you're just poor lmao

>>57216811
It's worth it for the sex. I fucked almost an entire family in the Philippines:

1) the 18 year old daughter, this all started with her. she was dtf a foreigner. 1 hour after meeting her I was barebacking her in my bed.
2) her 22 yo sister that I met while "dating" the 18 year old, she went behind her sisters back to get my creampie. Sister eventually found out. Drama....but we still fucked regularly.
3)the gay brother who was a ladyboy, sucked my dick and swallowed. Fucked him in the ass since he begged for it. Looked a lot like his sisters. 39kg and 5' 2". Prostate orgasm from being pounded. Pretty cute.
4)the 45 yo mom. I had known all of them for about two years at this point and she was well aware of what I was doing to her daughters. I seduced her and came inside of her.
5) the 35 yo aunt. I got her pregnant since she lived like 10minutes away and came over every day after he work to fuck and get a creampie. She was surprised she got pregnant (again). I wasn't. My kid from her is 4 years old now.
6) aunt 2. Met me through aunt 1. I fucked her while aunt 1 was in the other room. She knew. Begged me to cum inside of her. Had baby rabies since her sister was pregnant at the time and it was making her jealous.

Their other brother worked at sea on a ship so I couldn't get my hands on him. Dad was dead and probably rolling in his grave.

Let me guess, you're from America ?
Here, have some more of your so called culture "bro"

>>57216811
After I made it from the 2017 bull run I traveled the world for about a year. Its worth it to go to a few places around the world, discover shit, meet people, explore. But it can be stressful and a lot of work, and after a while you get the feeling you've pretty much seen enough crazy shit. I got kind of sick of the lifestyle. Now I mostly just travel within the US or to Europe every few months.

>>57216811
>Japan is the most searched holiday destination.
the land of the weebs. I'm not surpised at all.

>>57217459
how do you spend your days since you made it? Are you just trying to level up to the next wealth bracket?

>>57217207
$2k goes pretty far in Thailand. 5 star hotels are only like $100/day. For Americans this is pennies. If you can work remote and live there it's pretty comfy desu.

>>57217352
Sounds about right. When I went to the Philippines I creampied my taxi driver and then fucked the hotel receptionist. The bellboy who carried the bags to my room was a cute little Twink who blew me and swallowed my load.

>>57217527
Whatever I want. The closest thing I do to work is develop my own video games and contribute to some open source projects since I used to be a programmer. I learned the play couple instruments, go camping, fishing, etc. I started a family too which takes an assload of time and I have no clue how people do it while also working a full time job. Simple shit, I don't need more, even if with the stock market ripping and bitcoin still doing good long term I'm doing pretty well financially anyway.

>>57216811
It depends on what you’re into. I don’t like sports or vidya, but I do love history. I always travel to places with a rich history so I can see sites I’ve read about. If you’re only going to take pictures of yourself then it’s not worth it.

In general, it's not worth it. Which is why it's important to have a reason to travel, something to materially (or existentially) improve your life.
For the same reasons, I hate visiting tropical countries because they're all worthless with no history or real culture and most people just spend thousands of dollars to sit on a beach.

>>57217281

weebs

This is now a /trv/ map thread

BTW yes traveling is worth it as a hobby but not as an escape from your life. If you travel with the expectation travel will magically make your life way better you are wrong. If you travel to fulfill an interest in culture or nature or just mere curiosity or literally just because you had some time to kill and extra cash then go for it.

>Is traveling overrated?
No.
>Is it worth the money?
Absolutely. It's not even expensive. I spent like $10k each time I went for three months so it was reasonably affordable. I saw a ton of very cool stuff and if nothing else it gives me more to talk about which makes me a more interesting person than if I'd played 3 months worth of video games.

Like pic related. It's some thot but I've been there.

>>57217870
Yeah I've done digital nomad stuff and plan on doing more this year I actually save money when abroad compared to the US. Plus, a ton of the luxury stuff you can buy where you live now there's no need to waste money just because you're abroad.

>>57217199
Bullshit, what brazilian want to go to aruba? wtf ia a aruba?

>>57217896
Tons of Brazilians and South Americans go to Aruba. I have a friend who went there and he said it was all rich Colombians, Brazilians, and Americans.

>>57216811
yea it's incredibly overrated
i traveled like 2 months ago i don't remember almost anything
most people just travel for status signaling and flex on other people

>>57217715
Yeah in my case I'm trying to visit every fine art museum and most of the big tourist spots, like Stonehenge. I couldn't just go to a city to dance in clubs or drink in bars or fuck around on a beach. And it's obvious when you talk to people who've traveled and gone to see things you can only see in other places, compared to people who do a week in fiji and just stay in the hotel, the club next to the hotel, and the beach across the street from the hotel. The first type of person is way more interesting.

That said you don't need to travel to be interesting. A person who's interested in and well-read about the Roman Empire, but never been to Italy, is more interesting than the person who went to Rome for 3 days and rode around on one of those tourist buses and took guided tours of the colosseum and vatican.

>>57216811
i feel bad for burgers desu. i can get 15 euro return tickets and fly to italy or france for the weekend

>>57217972
But USA is god tier for road trips. Some of my favorite trips are road trips and camping trips. The mix of being out on the open road all alone and having open views of the milky and shooting stars, stumbling upon interesting small towns, exploring places you didn't plan to, going on back country hikes and camping for free with basically endless territory to explore is wonderful. Plus I love driving through multiple climate zones in a day. But yeah if you want to go to some pretty old town packed with history it sucks.

>>57217972
I don't believe you can have a satisfying visit to anywhere in France or Italy in a single weekend. I spent over three months in each country and didn't feel it was long enough. I'm STILL not done with France, I have like a third of the country left to see.

Weekend trips are for like visiting the beach, or seeing a Broadway show, or maybe a day of skiing. Not for trying to even skim the surface of Rome or Paris.

>>57218071
I agree if you are going on a weekend trip expecting to check a country of your list forever that's not smart. But to be fair if you can bop over somewhere for a weekend and recognize you need to come back and you're only scratching the surface there's no harm in it.

>>57218154
Just seems like a waste of money as an American. Of course if you're taking a cheap train in Europe, like from Rome to Florence, or Munich to Venice, I guess it can make sense, but in America if you have to fly it's an all day affair to get through security, fly, land, and get to where you're going. It's NOT fast of convenient. So for me going even just across country for anything less than a full week feels like a waste of money. Road trips are better, because there's stuff to see along the way and with your car you can stay and do more. Like when I went to Florida, I stayed in the state driving around for 3 weeks I think. I can't imagine flying from LA, or even NYC, to eg London for just a weekend and then flying back.

>>57216811
You haven't lived life until you've driven through the japanese countryside listening to 80s japanese pop

>>57218195
Yeah it's not doable for Americans. I was saying if you're in Europe and want to buy a 100 dollar round trip ticket to Amsterdam for a weekend or something like that.

>>57218207
Please stop, I haven't spent any real time in Japan and never saw the countryside ;_; I'm hoping to go sometime in the next year or two, bullrun dependent.

>>57216811
Why would anyone want to holiday in Guatemala

This entire thread smell like spoiled SO.Y

Expecially judging by the sexual taste of the faggots here >>57217352 it feels like a wholesome leddit thread

I'm going to creampie your entire family before I fly to the south of France for a relaxing vacation, boy

is programming still a viable career? or will AI takeover?

any other crypto stuff you like? or just btc maxing?

any other advice? this is the type of level-headed humbleness i am looking for on this basket weaving forum

>>57217696
where have you been that's "worth it" to you? so many places to travel, but so little time.
where's it worth the time and money?

>>57216811
Obsessing about the cost-benefit analysis of traveling every day for the last 5 years has buck broken this board and cost most people here more time than traveling itself would have.
Just go take 1 trip and see if you like it or not.
Stop overanalysing and being a tranny about it.

>>57217352
lets fucking go. lol at all the idealistic teens in here hoping to make their bussys quiver looking at le epic cultrual monuments. been there done that. boring as fuck.
>wow some people 600 years ago built this impressive structure
>but today its either swarming with niggers selling keychains and covered in filth
>or is literally in a country that is 99% shitskin religous fanatics completely disconnected from the builders of the monument
yeah, nah. google images and wikipedia will get me the same effect. travelling is about pleasure, and pleasure takes the form of a teenage hooker and sack of cocaine/heroin/hash. or a rave and some mdma on a greek island. shit like that, is fucking badass and way more worthwile.

>>57217225
You're talking to a board full of burgers, there's no desire for being cultured apart from being obsessed with money to consoom and dick wag to their neighbors.

>>57217225
You spent thousands to stare at a concrete dick you fucking queer lol

>>57216811
>Is traveling overrated?
Traveling can grant you perspective. Traveling cannot solve all your problems for you. Your individual experience will fall somewhere in there between those two.
>Is it worth the money?
That has to be your call. You can travel expensively or cheaply that's up to you. But is whatever money you spend worth the price? That's up to you.

It will show you better why the World is like it is.

>>57217225
That comes off incredibly superficial.

Life is about building a family along with wealth to provide an environment for this family to prosper.

You should travel goyim. Ignore the insecticides you are sprayed with on international travel.

>>57216811

depends on how much you make and how much you pay, the fuck?

but yeah, it's worth it

its worth it. much better than waging. I travelled for 2 years. stayed 1 month or 2 months per house/appartment. was reaally nice. also now i have a gf because of it

>>57216811
Yes. No. Stressful, crowded, dirty, you never come back feeling refreshed or refined or whatever bullshit idiots spout on their instagram.

depends if you travel to see something you really want to see, meet someone, go to an event, for an opportunity etc or just because.
i wouldn't waste money flying to a pacific island just to get some instagram pics.

>>57216811
The only kind of traveling that's worth it IMHO is eco tourism.
>coral reefs
>rainforests
>mountains
>places with a unique natural beauty that humans can't reproduce
If you're traveling to cities you're basically spending thousands of dollars to go from one shithole overrun by Muslims to another shithole overrun by Muslims. There isn't a functional difference between staying the week in Paris than there is in Rome, New York, Melbourne, Capetown, or Cairo. Every city is just packed together hodgepodge of the entire world population but with the lowest common dominator being the dominant strain, so low income people with no hygiene or education. Whatever "authentic" experience you think you're gonna have is something that could only have been enjoyed 100 years ago.

>>57217972
Well you have to because your entire country is so small you can see the whole thing in a week.

>>57218848
True. I often forget it.

>>57218854
Accept your love for beautiful things, don't be afraid of it. It won't make you gay and if it does, it's okay :)

>>57219118
Funny comment.
And what do you teach your family ?
That the only goal of life is to have a family ?
Shouldn't you have a family as a way to discover the world, its culture and its beauties ? Shouldn't you life (dare I say it) for more than just making children ?

>>57218817
