When we visited Cuba I could seriously see myself living there. They are dirt shyt poor but happy as fk because of the sunshine and the government makes sure they don’t go hungry. They make do with wtf they have because our gov been fkn with them since the 60’s. The rum was fantastic, the women were beautiful in all their shades and body types, and the food was great as well.
See though this is why my post actually agrees with you. I have a house here no mortage and have been looking other places similar. Its the fact most people would rather spend over and over to visit these places instead of just buying property and moving ... even if just seasonal. To me that doesnt make sense, its cool to visit (especially how you said because you enjoy it) but when people act like its a stunt... its lowkey weird. I feel like if you enjoy something enough, you should be an actual part of it. Like if I loved Hawaii I would just move there... I wouldnt just go there over and over and over and post pictures about it
one dude above me said photography but that makes sense obviously... its not the same situation. Some people just go to the beach, take pictures... zipline and leave paying thousands. That's not real experience to me, you can do that in most parts of the world the same way.

compare two people who go to Spain and then Rio ... they do the same exact thing... eat at similar places, drink the same drinks and then sit on a beach where they dont go into the water. Its not much different besides the background ... call me an a$$hole but its true really. Once in awhile makes sense to unwind... but going to the same situation multiple times a year seems redundant

I travel solo and I do what I want to do. I don't really care for tourist traps I'll just go to take photos and then usually bounce and explore.

Some of my best memories are walking in a market in nigeria, seeing the pyramids, acropolis, going to israel and seeing all the stuff I read about in the bible, going to cuba and feeling like I was in the 50's.

That type of vacation is boring, I hate all inclusives and I hate "relaxing at the beach" type of trips. Might as well just book a fancy hotel down in your city in the summer.

I am avoiding travel altogether this summer if I have to get on a plane. Just got done spending 5 days in an ABNB a couple hours away in the Redwoods/Russian River. My wife likes to post on socials and i may post a story or two but i def am not on there doing the most. The whole point it to get out of the matrix for a bit.

With the whole world scared walking around looking at each other like they stole something Im cooling out here in the Bay for a bit.

Traveling is pretty overrated. It’s still good to do it but the only thing you gone do is look at stuff, hear different languages, and eat. And maybe you’ll go to a club and dance. There really that many things to do in life when you think about it.
I be wondering where y’all been and what exactly y’all did when this is how you describe your travel experiences

I’ll be honest if you can’t pull a lot of women, don’t have money while traveling to catch the women eye then you ain’t gonna really pull no out of towns hoes.

I’ll be honest, most then ain’t really looking to fukk and the ones that are gonna get shamed by they homegirls

Some times you catch rare group that’s all with the shyts tho
Does it depend on the country or are they all like that?

I’ve traveled to over ten countries and almost every major city in the USA. Traveling is extremely overrated and just a flex now. People will travel to another state and do the exact same things they do in their own city. People so desperate to flex they will have 5-6 to a hotel room. That’s not a vacation lol.

I'm in Dallas right now. I left Chicago Saturday at noon, went through St. Louis, caught a fireworks show in Kansas City, also slept there.

Next day, spent a day in OKC, caught another fireworks show there, left the next morning, then stopped at Winstar Casino on the OK/TX border for a few hours, then arrived in Dallas on Monday afternoon.

Nothing posted on the 'gram
Dallas is so wack but the food is bomb !!!

360 house brunch is excellent I even bought their house sauce .
