Uber out of CDMX airport?

( www.reddit.com )

Uber out of CDMX airport? Hope someone can confirm, everything I’ve read said to take Ubers for transport in CDMX including out of the airport. But our Air Bnb host said it’s illegal to take Ubers out of there now. Is this a new ban or does she work for the taxi emporium or something? submitted by /u/meh0175

Street begging ethics.

( www.reddit.com )

Street begging ethics. I just got back from a trip to Bangkok. It was lovely. But as always I was confronted by my own wealth and privilege in the face of people begging in the street. I’m haunted by a couple in particular, a gentleman with real agony on his face, and a lady with a baby the same age as my daughter. I’ve always been told not to give money to beggars, …

Two weeks in October touring the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany’s Rhine region Just spent two weeks in the Low Countries and it was a blast. Bruges, Ghent and Antwerp felt like a fairytale city whereas Amsterdam, despite being maligned for being an overcrowded tourist hub has magical canals and cityscape. Even Dusseldorf and Essen (Zollverein Coal Mine Complex) are underrated gems overlooked by most travelers to Europe. It…

Travelled a lot alone. Didn’t enjoy it that much. How to fight loneliness when traveling? During my last year of highschool so basically last year, with my dad working in Qatar Airways and us having access to heavily discounted tickets, I decided I would like to travel to Bali alone.

I’m not superstitious, but I have to listen to ABBA on the way to the airport. Ok, maybe I am. We came to notice that on the way to the airport for a couple of consecutive trips, ABBA was playing on the radio as we were driving to the airport. From then on, my husband and I play ABBA to commence a trip. Also, when we are on our way to the airport after visiting his family in Australia, we have to stop at the same gas station to fill up th…

I’m talking about when you are flying between two drastically different climates, like traveling from a cold snowy place to a tropical one. TO you bring a jacket along with you to your warm place? or just freeze from the coldest part from the car to the plane, and then enjoy the warm weather?
