Rant: bad experience with taxi drivers Hi all, something that I noticed very consistently is that whenever I have to take a taxi, the chance of having a negative experience is like 80%.

The Steam Deck has finally been surpassed — by a fork of Valve’s own experience An Asus ROG Ally X, running Bazzite. It looks just like SteamOS, because they share an interface.The first time I installed Bazzite on a Windows gaming handheld, I laughed. It looked like such a blatant clone of Valve’s Steam Deck interface. Its many bugs kept me at bay. Now, an Asus ROG Ally X running Bazzite has all but replaced the Steam Deck…

first solo-travel experience nerves Hi all! I’m currently on my first solo trip in Hilo, Hawaii. I arrived at my hostel late last night with some plans, but nothing solid. I’m doing a work-exchange here for 4 weeks. Because it’s my first solo-travel experience, I was feeling very anxious on my way here and for many days leading up to it. I showed up yesterday and everyone was very…

What to expect for my first hostel experience? I’m 21m travelling to Banff solo for a ski trip. None of my friends wanted to come, which is fine since it gives me a chance to grow some balls and take something on by myself for once. I decided to stay at a hostel because lots of people recommended it and I thought it’d be great to save some money and try and make some friends for the 4 days I…

Bad train experience Hi Everyone, Has this happened to anyone else? We went to Strasbourg for the day from Basel and bought our tickets at the counter without any issues. On our way back, we tried using the self-help ticket machines, but we couldn’t understand them. So, we decided to purchase our tickets through Rail Europe because we were running out of time and we…

What’s everyone’s experience with Malarone? I’m planning to go to Uganda and I know malaria prophylaxis is a must, with Malarone being the med that’s supposed to have the least side effects. My whole life I’ve had vivid dreams and sometimes nightmares, so to have that intensified scares me. I’ve also heard people reporting having bad stomach issues, I can’t imagine anything worse when bac…

Positive experience with Singapore VFTF TLDR: Im sharing my experience having used the visa free transit facility (VFTF) offered by Singapore. Context: Not much info was available online when I was doing my due diligence prior to travel except the article on the official website. Experience: 1. Remember it needs to be a ‘transit’ so keep in mind you have to have an onward ticket withi…

Sharing my personal experience as a first timer using Grab I just returned home from a trip to Phnom Penh and Ho Chi Minh. I read a lot about Grab on Reddit prior to my trip and wanted to share my personal experience in hopes of helping someone else. I only have a US phone number and used my ATT International Day Pass (I did not buy SIM cards for each country). In order to prepare, I downloaded the ap…

Anyone have experience / thoughts on QuietLight brokerage? I’m vetting the buy/sell marketplaces for ecommerce businesses specifically. Like the title says, curious for any personal experience with QLB? I remember Shopify used to have some sort of “exchange” marketplace, but seems to have shuttered. I’m considering divesting a few brands that I’ve personally maximized what I can do with. Currently bei…

Iguazu Falls experience, which side to choose Hey guys, Just want to share my experience of visiting both sides of the falls with you. We visited the Brazilian side first and the Argentinian side second, where we also did a boat trip. We also visited the bird park on the Brazilian side. Our lesson learned: Don’t do the Argentinian side. So why don’t do the Argentinian side, eventhough it is…

Mongolia experience, advice, recommendations Hello! American here, starting to plan a trip to Mongolia for next year. I am hoping to spend some time at a hot spring and see the Gobi Desert, however all the tours I’m finding so far are very fast moving with one day spent at each location and many locations. I would like to go to fewer places but take a bit more time. I would love to hear …

Experience with payment options for Borneo tours (wise, wire transfer, or revolut) Hello everyone, I’m looking into a Borneo tour and after talking to a few companies, seems like the norm for payment options are: wise, wire transfer, or revolut. I’ve never used revolut, but got waitlisted anyway. So I’m down to wise or wire transfer. I can’t remember the last time I used those to send a good amount of money overseas. Has anyon…

What’s Your Worst Airline Experience? Mine is PIA Let’s hear it—what’s the worst airline you’ve ever flown on and why? For me, it’s definitely PIA (Pakistan International Airlines). No LED screens, no WiFi, and barely any form of entertainment. The seats weren’t the most comfortable, and the service left a lot to be desired. It felt like I was stuck in a time capsule from the 90s. The food wasn…
