My trip to Europe, impressions

[BaronOfHair]

Not sure I would call having to wipe your ass and then put the toilet paper in a trash can instead of flushing it down the toilet a great time...

I mean sure the room might be nice but how long before that vile smell from the bathroom starts wafting in?

You always have the option of using the bath tub, or quite possibly the sink, as a bidet

Why do you think muslims wear their watches on the right wrist?

The left ones have a tendency to get blown off while building IEDs

 

[BaronOfHair]

Well, sh!t!

As said earlier, my father's side of the family is heavily Muslim... Luckily, I'm still equipped with both mitts

 

[BaronOfHair]

Or you're just very skilled at making IEDs.

A unique blend of skill and luck is required, if you're to erase several million infidels out of existence, yet retain all of your own limbs*


*This is a joke https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_comedy kids. I've never built an IED, nor do I endorse unaliving "infidels", or anyone else for that matter

Europe is definitely on my bucket list.

I've been keeping up with an acquaintance on instagram who recently went to France then took a cruiser to England.

Lots of beautiful churches and sceneries.

Europe is definitely on my bucket list.

I've been keeping up with an acquaintance on instagram who recently went to France then took a cruiser to England.

Lots of beautiful churches and sceneries.

The churches are magnificent...the Cologne Cathedral literally makes you wonder how it was possible for that to have been built hundreds of years ago because it's simply massive.

Still the largest double facade church in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage site.

It was awe inspiring in person to look up at that thing.

But literally every city we went to had at least one magnificent church in it that we walked past...

I recently travelled to Europe for two weeks and here is a short of my observation.

I was in Vienna, Bratislava, Ostrawa, and Warsaw. First and foremost, I always imagined that I am going to be impressed visiting Europe, but I got shocked and disgusted. Vienna, they have a big rainbow flag right at the main train station, you sitting drinking coffee and outside the window there are homeless, some are sleeping others are throwing up. Graffiti everywhere, even on historic buildings. Supermarkets are too few. Prices Dubai, but you are not in Dubai. The general feeling I got from Europe is like from some 3rd world country.

Warsaw was the worst offender. They have everything Vienna has, high prices, graffiti everywhere, rainbow flags, homeless, etc.. But what got me the most was lack of supermarkets. At first I thought I was searching google maps wrong, but no, I wasn't. They have a lot of small convinience shops, and no more than a couple of supermarkets. Those that are proper supermarkets, don't even come close in selection to what I have in my city. My city -- 7 proper supermarkets within a walking distance from my place. Warsaw -- 4 convinience stores / mini markets within same walking distance. Plus the prices, you buy a few things and it's already 80 zloti, for same money in my city I walk out with one large bag of food.

Not everything is bad though. Europe has excellent salami and other cured meat and excellent beer.

Fuel prices are around 1.5 euros, 3 plus times more that what I have at home.

After my trip I began appreciating my own country a lot more. Europe, I don't know why it is 1st world or premium, or people talk about it in good light always. It is an expensive s* hole, it looked more like 3rd world country to me. Perhaps it was excellent sometime ago, but not now.

This is so to speak, my own first hand experience. I wouldn't beleive anyone who wrote something like this prior to going there myself.

There is also youtube channel I'm subbed to, German in Venice, and he was in Germany recently, in his own home town, his experiences are about the same as mine.

What where the women like? where the thin? fat? friendly? rude?

What where the women like

Not fat. Average looking. Warsaw in particular had a lot of Ukranians, they have a certain coarse look to them, like they been through stuff or are going through stuff. Polish girls average, there are some hotties here and there. Tourists also average. In Wien also average, and also Ukranians, but add to the mix trans women. Hottest girls I've seen was in Ostrava, Czech Republic.

Man, the city I come from and the city I went to get my visa there is a lot of hot women. Bombshells left and right. The only damn that's nice moment I had was in Czech republic.

Where are you from

Russian Federation. I traveled Yerevan, Vienna, Ostrava, Warsaw to the United States embassy. Then back through Brno and Bratislava to Vienna. Put my U.S. flag cap on and because of my English got mistaken as an American throughout the trip. I got my visa in Krasnodar, and I had to spend 1 night there, explored the city and got impressed. Cuisine, architecture, hot women, nice hotel, everything affordable. Then in Moscow I got my medical examination, went to see all the captured machinary, not my first time in Moscow, but everytime I come there it's like going to a different country.

Europe definately is still on the map for me, namely Italy and Spain, Balkan countries, and Swizeland. But at this point I am leaning more towards Asia, middle east, and Africa for travel, maybe Carribean and south America, Cuba, Venezuela, Brazil for example.

Europe though, I expected a lot more out of it, to get impressed by it at the minimum.

Prague is off my route some ways. OBB is hell of a train company. We sat inside a train and expected to get to Warsaw. But near Ostrava they told us train is not going to Warsaw because of flooding. Conductor gave us a solution, take another local train to Ostrawa, from Ostrawa take a taxi to Katowice, then from Katowice there should be trains going to Warsaw. We were just about to do that, boarded a local train from god knows where to Ostrawa and met a guy from India, who told us there are busses going to Warsaw from Ostrawa. That's how I ended up in Ostrawa.

I must say, Ostrawa is a nice city. Though, it does look like economy is on the down side, especially with their big closed up factory, iron or coal, whatever it was. Nice beer, and according to our Polish cotravelers, nice shopping as well, apperantly they had a blast with shopping while waiting for the bus.



I did meet Ukranian girls at the mall. I wouldn't call them pretty. Plenty of faul mouth. I liked Czech girls thought, a lot more nicer looking and behaved.
