What is the smallest city you’ve visited for vacation? For me, it’s hard to say because I’ve gone to a few places that don’t have reliable numbers, but I’d probably have to say the “communities” surrounding the Dieng Plateau in Indonesia would be the smallest. I couldn’t find any numbers, but there are probably only a few hundred people in the little communities surrounding the Dieng Plateau or Siku…

My rental car has a mysterious dent in it that I didn’t cause and it’s unknown if it was there when I first picked up the car. I am traveling for a funeral. I rented the least expensive car I could find – a full size pickup truck from Budget. Normally I take pictures of cars I rent but this time I was in a hurry. I got in and drove. That was yesterday. Today I’m noticing a lot of small defects. There’s a small cut in the passenger side seat fabric. The tow light hook u…

What is something that catches your eye while traveling that may not be as intriguing to others? I’ll go first, analyzing any metro system while I travel is a must. I even collect the tickets or cards I get as a souvenir. I’m also very intrigued whenever I happen to see a phone booth wherever I go. Edit: I also love visiting any sort of sporting venue. From world famous stadiums, to the neighborhood football pitch, it all catches my eye. …

Most “Fall” cities in America What cities in America are the most “Fall/Autumn” cities. The ones giving Hallmark Halloween. Doesn’t necessarily need to be spooky (I think Salem Mass. takes the cake on that one). But where you’re getting the most colorful Fall leaves, eating apple spiced donuts vibe 🎃🍂🍁 submitted by /u/that_saltyblonde

Trip report: Quebec City Tonight is my last night on this solo trip and it was lovely Background: I’m 53 F and have travelled international and domestically a lot in the US.

Spain and Portugal Itinerary Hi! My husband and I (early 30s, decently fit, from USA) are going to Spain and Portugal in May 2025. I am finalizing the itinerary and are looking for some feedback from those who have been before. Our vibe is more quaint villages and nature vs making sure we hit every major historical site or do nightlife. As an example, we enjoyed Rome but on…

Guilt about returning to places I’ve already been I’m 33 and pretty lucky to have made it to 30 countries so far. But there are still so many I want to see. I’m not as wealthy in my thirties as I planned to be earlier in life, so I can only really manage 1 big trip a year now. My S/O also loves to travel (that’s how we met) and has plenty on his list, so I feel guilty whenever we book a trip to…

I Spent 3 Days in South Korea, July 2024 Hi guys, I was in Seoul this month (for free no less!). This trip has to be the most fun I’ve had in over a year.
