Best Cities In The World

[GamePlan]

What do you guys consider to be some of the best cities you've ever been to? From North America, to Europe to Asia, Africa or Oceania?

 

[speakeasy]

Barcelona, London, Amsterdam, Paris, Rome, NYC, SF.

 

[CGE333]

San Diego in the US.

Paris was okay, but very expensive.

I liked Athens plus more people speak English there than a lot of other places in Europe.

 

[Jules Verne]

Seoul, South Korea.
Kyoto, Japan.
Bonn, Bremen, Hamburg, Köln, and Münster, Germany. Heidelberg and Düsseldorf were decent.

@speakeasy: What did you like about Amsterdam..anything particular? just curious, because a friend is moving there b/c of his job (and I never thought of it as a great city I guess)

@CGE333: just out of curiosity..why San Diego? Ive heard it was like LA minus LA's problems (smog, etc.)

 

[CGE333]

San Diego-
Weather, beaches, even though it is a larger metro area, parts of it still have a smaller town feel to it, the people (at least the one's i met while living there) were very cool and laid back, unlike the LA my BMW is better than your BMW mentality. The women are very hot, and it has an international feel to the the city. There are a lot of Brazilians and Europeans there, plus many Asians (like everywhere else in CA).

Gameplan,

Amsterdam is a very beautiful city. The canals, the nightlife is great, good beer, there are worldclass museums. There were good-looking girls. I'm not into drugs and hookers, but if you are, that's your place. What more do you need? Only thing kind of ****ty is the weather.


I agree with CGE about San Diego. I think it's a really cool town and one of my fav cities on the west coast. The girls are pretty hot, true dat and it's way more laid back and non-pretentious than L.A. Maybe that's because it is military town whereas L.A. is a celebrity/entertainment-industry town. Downtown San Diego is jumpin' too at night with lots of bars and clubs going off. Downtown L.A. is a ghost town at night unless there's a Laker game going on. I'm a big fan of San Diego.

I haven't been nearly as many places as I would have liked to have been, but I will have to agree that Amsterdam is pretty effin cool.

I also liked Berlin, mainly for the beer.

Prague is a beautiful city. Where else can you stay in a 14th century hotel with a full blown nightclub AND a strip club in the catacombs below?

I spent very little time in Ocho Rios Jamaica, but I WILL be back for some Blue Mountain coffee and jerk chicken before I die, that's for sure.

Same deal with Cozumel Mexico. only spent a day there but I definitely plan to go back.

In the US I like to hit up Vegas from time to time. New Orleans is a cool city. Spent some time cruising the Chesapeake Bay by boat....that was pretty awesome.

Close to home Key West is a must see. And last but not least, I am fortunate enough to live a short drive to the oldest city in the US....St Augustine. There's just something about seeing a 500 year old fort in America that's absolutely surreal.

Depends what you after. Sometimes some places are off the beaten track but they are amazing to visit.

For me, the best cities I have been to

St Petersburg

The nightlife, history, architecture. Amazing place. Its a place of contrasts but is by far my favourite city.

London

Awesome nightlife, multicultural. Great place to be if you are young and single

Cartegena

Columbia. Girls are as hot as the women in Russia and a lot friendlier too. Cheap to go to. Not as dangerous as people think

Istanbul

History alone makes this an amazing place to go. Great place to party to.

 

[Bible_Belt]

My three favorite places, where I have spent a lot of time, are my home in Southern Illinois, Tampa Florida, and St Lucia in the West Indies.

 

[HandyAndy]

Inglewood where everything is good in the hood!!

 

[War Against Betaism]

I've only been to 3 countries but for where I've been, San Diego and San Francisco are beautiful cities to drive around in the night. Chicago was a great city too though I didn't like how every single person I past by was smoking.

 

[drummer]

Brisbane, Australia.

Great to hear San Diego really is that cool. I went to Valencia in Spain on a school trip once and pretty much loved it (however I really dont have no time to learn Spanish with too many other things keeping me busy..)...I often thought that San Diego might be a city similar to Valencia..so not sure if that holds true, but apparently its not just a rumour that its a nice city.

How about the brazilians? I'm really into brazilian girls lol, are their particular brazilian neighborhoods in San Diego or is it more like there are a few of them everywhere?

As for the weather being ****ty in Amsterdam..I guess the weather is the same as where I live in Germany ;(

 

[The Texas Tornado]

hong kong is BAD AZZ!!!!

 

[GamePlan]

I've been interested in Hong Kong (at least for a stop-over if I'm going to Australia).

I've heard people were pretty bad at speaking English, despite English still being an official language over there? If you try to make a conversation with people in say their 20's and try to speak to them in English can a decent number of them hold a conversation or is that only possible with few of them?

I'm not really the kind of guy who wants to travel only to meet foreign girls, but I still have to ask: What are the girls like over there. From the pics I've seen most don't look very hot (unless you're really into asians, I guess). But I guess if you go out at night into the nightlife that changes, hm?

Is the situation similar to Japan where a lot of the girls are pretty much into white guys?

 

[CGE333]

Brazilians like to surf. I met 2 Brazilian girls in San Diego that were waitresses and a restaurant and both liked to surf.

Both of these Brazilian women were hot, and they had a cool accent when they spoke in English.

San Diego is great. I will be moving back there probably within the next 12 months. My sig other grew up there. As soon as she gets a job there i am there as for my job i can be located anywhere in AZ or So Cal

Chinese women are the least attractive Asian women. Just look at the Olympics as proof. They look androgynous. Thai, Phillipino and Japanese women are the best of the Asian lot.

If you're looking to game women abroad, here's a pretty good place to get some opinions: http://www.realmantravelguides.com/

 

[Desert Fox]

I gotta put Tbilisi at the top of the list

As for asian women, south koreans are the hottest

 

[alphamailman]

San Francisco, all kinds of culture and entertainment. Reno, Nevada. St. Augustine, Florida for the history, surfing, and people I lived with for years. Daytona, Florida, Key West, Clearwater.
