After reading the posts on which city is the most overrated but others love, such as Miami, Orlando, Nashville, and Dubai as being overrated, which cities are gems that you could stay a whole week and feel like it was worth the effort and expense (in the U.S.)? Where there are plenty of activities and you would go back again and recommend. Every…

Tested positive for covid during vacation, any advice on how to proceed? UPDATE 3 (final update from agent): The travel insurance policy that I have only provides flight coverage. The agent mentioned I would have the potential for coverage for changes in the flight and flight alone, so accommodations such as hotel stays for quarantine is sadly not covered. Therefore, I’ll either have to just leave tonight and have th…

Beware of pickpockets! We’ve been to Europe a bunch of times, and never had any problems – and I guess we got lax. Two weeks ago, my wife, kids, and I are walking to our rental in the gothic quarter of Barcelona – at about 10:30 at night. The streets were lively and we felt safe. My wife had put her cell phone in the side pocket of a small backpack she was wearing. A…

How much of a monthly income (in USD) is “enough” to stay one month at the most expensive cities in the world? I’m in IT and I’m in a process where I’m applying to different remote jobs paid in USD.

My goal for the following year is to travel as much as I can, and I have this “desire” of getting to know some of the most expensive places in the world, meet the …

Which cities have the most aggressive vendors? You know what I’m referring to: you’re touring an area when suddenly, you’re swarmed by fifteen vendors aggressively trying to sell you something. Some of them may be legitimate, and some of them may be grifters, but all of them pile on you like they’re moths and you’re the flame. Only from my own experience, watch out in the following cities fo…

Traveling on land from India to Vietnam, should I be worried about Myanmar? Title says it all. 32m Canadian, traveling solo from Chennai India to Vietnam and beyond. Would like to do it via buses and trains etc but Myanmar is my one potentially sketchy country.

Most overrated city that other people love? Everyone I know loves Nashville except myself. I don’t enjoy country music and I was surprised that most bars didn’t sell food. I’m willing to go there again I just didn’t love the city. If you take away the neon lights I feel like it is like any other city that has lots of bars with live music, I just don’t get the appeal. I’m curious what othe…

I’m a little confused about going through customs when entering Singapore. According to the ICA website books, movies, food, and video games are considered controlled substances and must be declared at the red channel with the proper authorization otherwise I’ll be sent to the relevant authorities for approval. Is going through the red channel and getting approval for my stuff a big deal/take a long time? Do I have to …
