I'm going to fly with a plane, and I'm scared as fuck. Help!

What are state border checks like?
I'm moving from california into oregon, and bringing a bunch of reptiles with me. Nothing is actually illegal, but I don't want to deal with all the shit I would imagine i'd get going through a border check with a fuckload of exotic animals. Are there even checks? Is it only on major highways or are there other ways to go?

Hi /trv/,

My girlfriend and I are planning to go to Central/South America in January 2016. We have talked about quite a few different options, including Mexico, Ecuador & Galapagos, Peru or Argentina. We have three weeks, and none of us have been to that entire part of the world before. We don’t want to go too many places while we are there as spending time on going from a to b isn’t that fun. Taking the weather in to consideration are there any parts of the central and south America where it would not make sense to go?

Suggestions, recommendation and all in between would be greatly appreciated, both of us are from Denmark and we can’t wait to go to the last continent (besides the artic) we haven’t been to.

New Japan General since the old one is past the bump limit:

Please check the /trv/ sticky before asking questions. It's filled with links to great resources, many of them specific to Japan travel.

Please refrain to the old thread while it's still up: >>1041660

have you dated married someone from a 3rd world country? did you like the relationship? what was it like? what did you find odd and what was the same?

I don't know a better place to ask this question, so here goes.

The Blue zones of the world Okinawa japan
Sardinia Italy
Icaria Greece
Ect
Are regularly studied regarding what they eat and what they do for a living.

But I can't find anything documenting their hygine habits online anywhere.. I figure it'd be interesting to know how much these people bathe, what soaps they use if any.. toothpaste, shampoo, if it's common in those areas to clean your pooper with water rather than toilet paper. If they use mouthwash or any other products big companies want us to buy to improve our health

I wanted to create a thread where anons could share their experience of any times where they were able to travel for free or at a very low cost, maybe as a result of some sort of work placement or programme. Other than that I want to keep it pretty general, and hopefully it can help to inspire some ideas in anons who want to travel, but don't have a huge amount of money to spare.

How do you regard travelling as? Is it just "go to a country", or is it something more in depth?

I definitely think there's a difference with just visiting and actually travelling. Visiting is something to see the sights and have a good time, which of course you can also do while travelling. But I think real travelling requires you to at least acknowledge, if not appreciate and enjoy the different culture, history, and language of the region/country. Travelling is something to experience the world, not just see it.
Well, what do you think of travelling?

I've never travelled outside the U.S. and am trying to plan a trip (45-60 days long or so) to SEA.

Internet tells me Thailand would be the best/most forgiving for a newfag like me.

I want to do a side trip to at least one other country (Cambodia? Laos? Vietnam?)

I understand that this overland side trip will "re-set" my 30 day visa for Thailand.

If I buy a round trip ticket out of Thailand with say 60 days between entry/exit will I be ok? Do I need to buy a return ticket within that 30 day window and then try and cancel it once I get there?

Why is the Thai website so unclear/shitty on this issue? I thought thousands of young people go there every year?

What do I do?
