Do the contacts you make along the way get anywhere in general? Hi fellow travelers! One of the perks about traveling is the network and social circle you can build which otherwise you wouldn’t get access to (or so I thought)… Overtime don’t the routine phone call and messages end up fizzling out? Let alone the plans you’ve had to meet again somewhere in the future. It ends up being you or the other person…

Is deboarding a plane in an orderly, row by row fashion an American concept? Truly wondering. I’m on my 6th flight in one week on a Euro trip and it is crazy how people deboard in such an aggressive fashion only to be stuck on the same tram as the rest of us to the terminal. I fly domestically in the US all the time, and everyone knows that you’re inconsiderate if you try to get off the plane before the row in front of …

A Vietnamese who want to see the world(s), not just countries. The title almost says it all. I am Vietnamese, holder of a pretty weak passport. But I want to see the world as much as possible, and I have been to more than 20 countries, mostly in Western Europe and Southeast Asia, plus China, Australia, South Korea and UAE. If there is anything that I feel very proud of, that is taking all these trips whil…

Bringing airport duty-free liquor items to the US Hello Redditors! I’m thinking of buying a liquor item of less than 1L from the Canadian duty-free shop in the airport for my travel to the US. But I’m wondering if I can carry it to the destination which includes a connecting flight without checking the luggage.

Travel location where people won’t annoy me? (this is mostly a venting/non-serious shit post) The thing that inspired me to post this is the couple sitting right next to me, smacking their food and chewing very loudly. Each mouth smack I feel my sanity wither away. During a flight I was uncharacteristically in an aisle seat…. And a man was standing there, leaning his full weight on his…

What do you think of hitchhiking as a way to travel? I did hitchhiking for briefly two years in my twenties, thinking it’s a fun and cheap way to travel and to make friends. But now that I’m in my thirties, when I see other hitchhikers who are doing it for years and years, meaning they are my age and even older, and have no shame to expect drivers to go their way to take them to their destination…

Traveling US to Vietnam – both business and economy tickets I’m taking my grandson to Vietnam for a couple of weeks. He is coming from NYC and I will be leaving from LAX.

Planning a trip to Scotland in 2024 Hi all! I am planning a trip to Scotland in September 2024. I’m noticing that the vast majority of hotels on Expedia, Google Hotels, etc. are “sold out”. Im surprised to see this as I thought booking a year in advance would be plenty of time. Are accommodations really booked out already or is it the opposite and I am just too early? Thanks for a…
