Random Thoughts – a few weeks in Mexico, Colombia, and Peru Just sharing some random thoughts/stream of conciousness of a few weeks of travel around Mexico, Colombia, and Peru! I found people to be so so kind in all 3 – though I think they were the warmest in México The geographic variability in each country is astounding. Mexico is obviously the largest. However, Colombia’s greenery took my breath away…

How do tourists find each other? To clarify the question, how do tourists meet each other to go around together? I was on the train in Italy and it was clear that the group next to us met that morning and were travelling to Amalfi Coast to sightsee together (we saw them eating at a restaurant later which confirmed they didn’t split up after they got there). Two of the girls kne…

Taiwan trip questions At the end of April I planned on doing 6 days in Taiwan and had originally planned to divide the time between Taipei first half, and Hualien/Taroko second half. However, considering the tragic events this week with the earthquake devastating the Hualien region I don’t think this part of the trip is realistic. What alternative 2-3 day stays would…

Missing items from hotel. What should I do? Currently travelling in Athens and I had a bag in my hotel room which luckily only had a T-Shirt I bought here. The bag disappeared when I got there yesterday night and the hotel hasn’t been really helpful into finding it. It’s a small single room, so I’m absolutely certain I haven’t misplaced it. I’m not sure if it was stolen or they threw it a…

Can I buy an ultralight sleeping bag in Kathmandu (or pokhara), Nepal? I thought I’ll try it here before I try it in r/Nepal. Basically I need an ultralight one, because I’m a runner, not a regular trekker. I live in a very expensive country, so if I buy one here it costs me like 500$ upwards. Thanks for your help! submitted by /u/TripleGoddess666

Thoughts on WizzAir? I’ve never flown them but now that they’re flying out of Prague they’re going to several destinations that I’m curious about. I know that they’re a super duper budget airline and are sticklers for things like printing your own boarding pass, checking in online in advance, etc but I don’t really know too much about them. It seems like they might …
