Does anyone use blablacar in EU as a driver? Do you have to have open bank account or paypal to use it? I’m from Serbia, where we also use BlaBlaCar, but payments are made in cash, so there’s no need for a bank account. When I was in Italy, I posted a ride from Venice to Trieste, and the app asked me to add my bank account details. I wasn’t sure if my ride would be blocked until I provided that information. Is it possible to use BlaBlaCar as a dri…

Looking for another city as walkable as Venice. Any suggestions? I’ve been to a lot of European cities, and while most are technically “walkable,” that doesn’t mean they’re actually enjoyable to walk in. To be a really enjoyable for walking, a city has to ban cars and other wheeled objects from whizzing past you. Venice is the gold standard for me because it is the most walkable city i’ve ever been to, hands…

Going on the A350 d…

How’s everybody’s experience with Allegiant air? It’s the only option to get from Iowa to where I need to go in Florida. I’m not expecting much but what does make me nervous is that they tend to be delayed or canceled and then you’re really screwed because there’s no other flights. That’s what really concerns me. Edit: it’s just me with a carry on and personal item. No issues bringing my own …
