Positive Surprise: Serbia. Affordable, many people still hold traditional values, centrally located, not yet corrupted by EU, safe, Slavic women who are not fat, I could go on and on...

Negative Surprise: Germany. First time I went there, I hadn't really traveled much at all, so wasn't paying close attention. Second time, after visiting Serbia, noticed all the fat women, felt unsafe, too expensive, too many rules, and all the women go for the hipster/alt appearance.

Where did you go in Germany? Seems everybody goes to Berlin...

Stuttgart area.

I havent been out in stuttgart, but parts of Germany can compete with the best of Europe. I find Koln and Dusseldorf quite good.

I like everything about germany except girls and it feels way more unsafe now with the influx of refugees.

What country has been your biggest surprise

1. Positive: Italy (particularly Tuscany). I expected to see the 2nd - 3rd world (outside of major cities, Italy is basically 2nd world), filled with migrants and kinda fucked. I mean I still expected to enjoy it, but I never imagined I would fall in love with it and think about it every day since leaving.

I have the nature smells burned in my brain, I became obsessed with wine and cooking, I elevated architecture to the highest art form known to man, and I plot my return and eventual purchase of property there constantly.

Hat tip to America. It gets a lot of shit, but it's still the greatest country in the world, and each state is basically like a different place.

2. Negative: Mexico. Disgusting third world shithole. Woohoo, a beach! Who fucking cares. All of those beach vacations in South America and the Caribbean can go get fucked as far as I am concerned. What a depressing society.

Portugal, even though I had good times there and was hosted by a local for some of my trip, I can see why many guys are negative about it. I call it the Mexico of Europe. Tragically ugly women (on average) compared to men, and sadly such a commie presence. Also lots of migrants.

Still many nice things to see there, and lots of beautiful things. But I was shocked that I didn't enjoy it more. The only thing that really stuck with me was the countryside around Evora.

Lisbon and Porto are fun. But not as fun as the other European cities I have visited and lived in.

Belgium, particularly Brussels, I thought sucked pretty terribly. This was about 10 years ago, had planned three nights with a friend and got the hell out of there after one day/night. Took the express train to Amsterdam first thing the next morning. Thought it was a dump and not that interesting from a tourism nor girls nor culinary standpoint. Just got a bad vibe from the place. The decline there has been going on for some time I'd say.

Jersey Shore - nicer and more enjoyable than it's given credit for. Had low expectations.

Fort Collins, CO - Cool little town with great beer and surprisingly good male:female ratios. Charming little downtown area.

Arizona (Scottsdale/Tempe) - Probably most attractive women population I've seen per capita in USA. Seen more busted dudes with nice looking girls than anywhere else in USA.

Australian beaches - these blew me away. Particularly in northern NSW and Gold/Sunshine Coast in QLD. Still up there with the best.

Toronto - I've always enjoyed my time there. I thought the Canadian girls there were pretty cute and quite friendly. Good culinary scene and great beer. They have some strip clubs with top tier talent too...

Panama - Even though I managed to have fun here, the place overall was quite disappointing. Really poor food, meh women, weird cultural identity. I cooked here almost every night the food was that bad...

Nepal - didn't love it. Thought a lot of the country was a shithole, horribly polluted, and overrated. Mountains were stunning though.

Chile - Nope - wouldn't go back. Weak cultural identity/flavor, poor cuisine, meh women. Wine and mountains were good. Got out of there in a hurry.

Laos - enjoyed the extremely slow pace of life there. It may be a little slow/mellow for some people, but it was just what I needed at the time. Chill country with very relaxed people. Great sticky rice and food in general, and nice views.

Skiing around random resorts in northern Honshu Japan - more snow than I knew what to do with. It was absurd. Did a 10 day trip with some friends and it literally never stopped snowing the entire time I was there. Nearly all day and all night the whole time we were there. Some days we had 3ft powder days. I left 3 days early to go back to Tokyo because I was actually sick of seeing snow after a while...that onsen life is the real deal.

What country has been your biggest surprise

India, had a work gig there for six months in New Delhi and never had so much fun in my life. There is basically this sizable percentage of liberal Indian women that studied abroad or work for the many Western companies based out there. I was basically in the 20% of the men that did 80% of the fucking. Best experience was this hottie who took me to Taj Mahal and gave me the full "tour". I returned after that twice only to find that the women have gotten hotter and the nightlife in Hauz Khas Village and Gurgaeon even better! However, India is a magical land of extremes and that applies to the experience of expats there as well. All the ones I met either LOVED India or couldn't wait to leave. Other fun cities are Pune (College Town), Bangalore and of course Mumbai.

Best Surprises

Tirana, Albania - Was not expecting much at all of this place and while the city itself is ugly, the area around it is beautiful and I was very surprised by how good looking the women were. Fun city as well.

Pereira, Colombia - Not visited by many tourists at all but a genuine gold mine. I found the women there to be more attractive than in Medellin, the ratio was absurdly good and so friendly. Great nightlife as well.

Budva, Montenegro - A tough place to game because of language barriers and that many of the girls are traveling with boyfriends/husbands or at least family which can both be obstacles. The quality of the women here is just absurd though. Great nightlife as well. The beaches are even pretty decent by European standards.

Gili T, Indonesia - When you've been to Bali a few times you come to expect a certain thing from that area (too many drunk Aussies) but Gili T remains a paradise that they don't generally make it to and is instead full of Scandinavian goodness.

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Just awesome fun and debauchery. Aided by the fact that most of the tourists, when I was there at least, were Mexican and thus the quality of women was greatly improved.

Worst Surprises

Italy would win this for me. Super expensive, overcrowded and very dirty. The surprising part though was that the food wasn't that great either, I love "Italian" food, I just didn't love it in Italy as much as I do in other countries which was a surprise. It doesn't help that you're paying $25 for a small bowl of pasta either.

I didn't really like Cancun either which surprised me, the clubs were too crowded to enjoy and you had to always be careful to avoid the crime when leaving, only place that I've ever had multiple issues on that front. The towns and sights around Cancun made it thoroughly worthwhile though, Cancun itself is the only negative surprise I had.

Colombia: had high expectations about Colombia. Women too flaky. Not worth it, too much work to bang a normal girl.

San Jose, Costa Rica: curvy women, loved it. Friendly people. Nightlife is almost none. Got a couple of flags here. It's getting more difficult coz of too much tourism.

Portugal (Lisbon): The best food I've ever had in my life. Great wine. Weather is great. Issue: women are reallyyyy hard to get, impossible to approach here. Enjoy the food and scenery. If you want an easier bang go to Spain (Sevilla, Cordoba etc).

Next stop: Lima, Peru.

I second everything quoted about d.r. and colombia. I will write my own thoughts though

Negative surprise: peru. Most peruvians that I meet in the united states see me as a fellow brother. The peruvians in peru on the other hand are divided in the way that they think. They are either openly racist (towards anyone that is not white including each other) or they are regular folks like the ones in the states. The whole country is a shithole. I have married two peruanas and one had a nice sincere family and the other had a racist hateful spiteful family with a lot of bad secret family history. Both families were indigenous but were confused about their own skin colors(various shades and tones). They are a confused "people".

D.R. most iliterate popularion I have ever encountered. They cannot spell. They only know 100 spanish words and use words they hear others use on the radio without knowing what the word or phrase actually means. Their iq is the lowest without comparison. I have met jungle peiple in the amazon that know more general knowledge and spanish than dominicans. They have ZERO social skills. They are not even smart enough to say hello. I havw met down syndrome people with more social skills. Females are gold diggers and always ask for money one way or another. I never give. I bang a new girl everytime. I feel like derek jeter banging these out the park. I set records here.


Positive surprise: Guatemala. Friendliest most sincere people I have ever met. Marriage is an actual thing there. EVERYBODY gets married and no one gets divorced.

Good call on Pereira. Hopefully we're not eskimo bros ;-).

Best: Mexico (City). Only place I ever visited where it felt like I was playing the game on god mode. It was almost like some kind of paycheck for all the grinding and failure I swallowed the previous year in Europe. Of course I should have just kept the memories and not returned because when I did I didn't get 1/5th the results I did before

A runner up was Porto Alegre, where although I didn't clean up, I still had an incredibly positive overall experience, speaking the language, visiting all the charming periphery cities and experiencing South Brazilian culture... I also did surprisingly well in Ukraine the first time I went though I was unable to repeat this when I returned the next year.

Worst: I didn't find nor expect to find any country in Europe an easy ride after earning my training stripes in Poland. However, nothing could prepare me for how brutal Budapest and Prague both were. I never felt so humbled, poorly received and crushed after hitting on the lassies in these 2 cities. Beautiful, amazing cities but for girls I think not (for me at least).

Your entitled to your opinion but this is overly harsh. Makes me wonder what level of Dominicans you are around to say they have no social skills. They dont say hello? [Image: huh.gif]

I've never had this experience, Ive found Dominicans to be more social than most places, especially above the barrio class. As far as gold diggers, yeah there are plenty of semi-pros and pros that try and prey on suckers, just like everywhere in developing countries, Colombia, Eastern Europe,Africa,etc

I agree with you on Peruvians, lots of self-hate there.

Guatemalans are very genuine people, Ive always been treated well by them.

Nice, Tirana is super cheap which is always nice. If you like the Persian type look then it's great. If you're lighter skinned then you'll be starting with a headstart. Very diverse with the girls though, you get the middle eastern look, a little bit of African and a more Slavic look as well. Really strong cafe culture, basically every corner and most of the streets have a cafe. Some super nice restaurants as well.

It's an ugly Eastern European style city with some of those weird communist looking monuments and a real lack of maintenance (some of the newer buildings are quite nice though). Unfortunately I didn't have enough time or good enough weather to make it to the coast, some really nice looking beaches though.

Very little English though, I found it was one of those fluent or nothing countries.

Budva is the playground for the rich and famous from EE, especially Russians. If you speak Russian it will be a massive bonus here, you'll basically be able to game everyone there with it and English. Hardest part is just finding the groups of girls and lone wolf types that aren't there with a boyfriend type, just a lot of couples, but eye candy levels were right up there and the nightlife and entire setup of the place is just conducive to game.

It's certainly a place I'd recommend conversational Spanish, I survived with functional Spanish and a friend who was fluent but it would certainly have helped a lot to have better Spanish.

Albania sounds interesting.

I can also recommend Pereira. When I was there I only saw one other expat! Nice place to visit.

I was only there like 5 days but Barranquilla also is a nice 2nd tier Colombian city. Hated Cartagena though.

@azulsombra hey man, About dr, I have lived here 3 months so I am not saying I am expert on this island by any means. Every venezuelan that I have hung out with here has had the same experience and shares the same conclusions about this island as me. That being what I wrote in the above post. There is no cast system here, meaning that the conclusions go for all dominicans. We are talking about an island here(the other half being haiti). There is no diversity of thought here. They all have the same mannerisms here(and lack of good manners or social skills) what latinos do you know that snort there noses, cough without covering their noses, try to cough up furballs in public, never greet anyone with smile. Latinos greet each other when we encounter each other, including people we have never met before. Even the colombian paisa with the sombrero and stern face says something when he meets somebody. Dominicans are not like latin (nor spanish) people in general. That includes the poorest of the poor and the 1 percent on this island. (Dominicans from the united states are of way better quality, and thats not saying much). The positives are that nobody steals here and gay "lifestyle" is not promoted here.

And you have a point about gold diggers, but I am sure you know that the hypergamy here is 10x worse than the united states, and this is the only country with the concept of chapiadora where basically every female here is a gold digger.(does not mean that you have to give them anything. It is not an issue when you are plowing through a different girl everytime). Everybody is divorced here, even the 1 percent. And child support is a business here.

On peru, no disagreement there.

On guatemala, I am glad we both had great experiences there. I have some stuff there and some good friends taking care of it. Great people.

And yes I am latino. From the united states and my parents are colombian.

WORST: Germany (Hamburg and Berlin) - Both cities aren't that exciting.

- Everything super closed on Sundays, as a tourist you can't really do anything than sit inside the hotel room.
- The famous night life (and hooker) street "Reeperbahn" in Hamburg is over-hyped. Could have been the shitty winter weather that was the reason for it but girls in general weren't friendly inside the clubs. Plenty of clubs though.
- Berlin is too spread out to have a good night life. I like to be able to jump in between different places but if you go to for example a decent club like PURO, you can't really pre-drink nearby. With that said, I've met some really friendly and interesting german guys (no homo).

Second WORST: Netherlands (Amsterdam) - Night life sucked absolute balls. Girls were more interested in getting high than getting laid. A bit too spread out aswell between the high end clubs and the so called high end clubs sucked aswell. Nova is the worst so called "high end club" I've ever visited and was filled with gay people. Too many bikes being in the way everywhere you go and hotels are expensive as hell (compared to say Berlin). Too many gays and too drug romantic for my likening. If you're a degenerate with low standards of women, it's a must go.

BEST: East coast Italy. If you got a bit of cash and can spend it in the small party towns above Rimini, you should. It's a paradise during late July and early August with nice beaches, pools, happy people on vacation and almost only italians (so very very few 3rd world immigrants). Good food, clubs, women and everything. There's the sweet life!

SECOND BEST: Poland - Fantastic country that stands out from the rest of Europe nowadays. Think I saw about 4 immigrants during my two week trip which is shocking for someone who have only been in Western Europe before.
+ Super cheap.
+ No way near as degenerate as other European countries (gays, less fat people, less hipsters etc)
+ Impressive nature, which isn't not the first thing that comes to peoples' minds when talking about Poland.
All my other 5 friends who joined my there complained about the food on most places. But I didn't mind the food actually, since it was so cheap I could eat 4 times as much and eat buffets, and it was pretty healthy in general.

Negative Surprise: Germany. First time I went there, I hadn't really traveled much at all, so wasn't paying close attention. Second time, after visiting Serbia, noticed all the fat women, felt unsafe, too expensive, too many rules, and all the women go for the hipster/alt appearance.

I really do not know what you guys define as '' traditional values''...

First of all Serbia is far from being traditional and secondly serbia overall fights to get fund from EU so you are very wrong about things you say.

Just because you did not see gay parades every week and McDonalds in every corner does not mean a country is traditional.

1) First of all there are a lot of prostitutes in Serbia. The number is supposed to be from 40,000 to even more than 60,000

They are becoming like Bulgaria in terms of sex tourism.

Now in the west girls are more degenerate for sure and they offer '' free prostitution'' considering that ONS in the west are a norm and the men the average woman bangs, but that is another issue

2) Secondly serbian girls are very materialistic and golds diggers. I know 3 turkish business men they go every month in serbia for business and they have like 2-3 lovers each. They are dark and short like turks are, but they bang a lot of girls there... why do you think?

3) Serbia has a big issue with the birth rates, like west does with the native white Europeans.... Since 1996 serbia loses every year 40,000 people more than are born.... why??? Because serbian women prefer to bang around cities and not settle even in villages and create families there.

4) The Prime Minister of serbia is a declared gay lesbian.


I can go on.

For sure that anything on the balkans is better than fucked up west, but we must not create illusions.

As for Germany I agree with you in your points.

Literally everthing you mentioned is a ploy by the people in power to Westernize Serbia--with EU, NATO, and international financial institutions doing all the dirty work. Brnibic being appointed PM is just a ruse by Vucic to allow him to retain control of the levers in power while appealing to EU intersectional feminists/lgbt activists.

Being obbsessed with money is literally a symptom of the economy being stagnant since the 90's, this is true of basically any FSU country at this point. Turks, no, I did not see many Serb girls with Turks, or waxing poetically about them, but hey, maybe when they go vacation in turkey they hook up.... There are literally prostitutes everywhere in the world, Dubai, Western Europe, Eastern Europe, from conservative societies to liberal ones, the only way Serbia comes out of this situation looking bad is if you're American, most of whom are prudes in regards to prostitution even though it is very prevalent in the US.

The national outlook in Serbia is very bleak, and frankly I don't blame serbs for partying like no tomorrow. The geopolitical situation for them is very nebulous, and rising anti-EU sentiment means Serbia might not join the EU, on top of that, EU bureaucrats have basically told the Serbs to their faces that they're not in any hurry to let serbia in within the next ten years, meanwhile Croatia and Slovenia are riding high, while once again, Serbians have been screwed.

biggest surprise in a bad way - Mexico City

Probably the biggest disappointment for me. Lived in Mexico for a year and could have left in 6 months. Lot of hot young girls but by mid-twenties they are already putting on weight and rarely, rarely see a woman over 35 who isn't at least overweight with a potbelly. About half are obese. Most of the food is bland; Mexicans spice it up by dumping hot sauce and chilis on it. Mexicans really suck at foreign food. I would end up eating at PF Chang in Mexico City just so I could eat some mediocre Chinese food. Only food I found that was consistently good was Taco Arabia. I was also surprised by the lack of nightlife and art outside of restaurants and bars with no live music. I was expecting to find lots of bars with bands since so many radio stations in the US play Mexican music. Even in Mexico City there wasn't much going on at night. I asked people who lived there and they said that there was a little but you really needed to know where to look. One Mexican woman said that music isn't taught in their schools and few know how to play an instrument. Mexicans mainly seem to entertain themselves through going out to dinner then having loud all night parties at home.

There were a few cities though that I thought were a lot better than Mexico City in terms of food: Morelia and San Miguel de Allende. The young women seemed very approachable in Morelia but still the weight issue as they age.

biggest surprise in a good way - Istanbul or Phnom Penh
I went to Istanbul years ago before the Internet so didn't quite know what to expect. I found it be a satisfying blend of Roman, Byzantine, and modern. Lots of beautiful women too: thick, long hair, big boobs and big eyes. Unfortunately, I was there with my Iranian girlfriend so didn't get a chance to sample the local wares.

Phnom Penh was much more enjoyable than I expected. I had mainly read about it in its earlier stages right after the Khmer Rouge when it was the wild east. Now a lot more sedate but a gym I went to had a sign on the front door with a red line though "No guns and no bodyguards." I didn't find Cambodian women as good looking as the Thais but still had some fun. Lots of great eating too.

'' Byzantine'' is Roman by the way.

The term '' byzant'' was invented by a German historian in 1540.

It was the Eastern Roman empire and the only continuous hair of the Roman empire, what is known by a wrong term as '' Byzantine Empire''. Architecture and state system was the same as in the old roman empire.

As for Istanbul, it has it's beautiful sights for sure, but it has a lot of run down areas and ghettos and lots of children that pickpocket you.


' Turkish'' women are average to ugly in general. Let's not forget that most of turks are native anatolians or assimilated armenians, arabs, kurds and balkaners.

Istanbul is the center when you find a lot of muslim Bosnians, Albanians and circissians, that have better looking women than average turk.

Turks have a inferiority complex and they present this in serial films like latinos or mexicans do, by presenting white looking actors that are not average of population.

Best Surprises

Tirana, Albania - Was not expecting much at all of this place and while the city itself is ugly, the area around it is beautiful and I was very surprised by how good looking the women were. Fun city as well.

Pereira, Colombia - Not visited by many tourists at all but a genuine gold mine. I found the women there to be more attractive than in Medellin, the ratio was absurdly good and so friendly. Great nightlife as well.

Budva, Montenegro - A tough place to game because of language barriers and that many of the girls are traveling with boyfriends/husbands or at least family which can both be obstacles. The quality of the women here is just absurd though. Great nightlife as well. The beaches are even pretty decent by European standards.

Gili T, Indonesia - When you've been to Bali a few times you come to expect a certain thing from that area (too many drunk Aussies) but Gili T remains a paradise that they don't generally make it to and is instead full of Scandinavian goodness.

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico - Just awesome fun and debauchery. Aided by the fact that most of the tourists, when I was there at least, were Mexican and thus the quality of women was greatly improved.

Worst Surprises

Italy would win this for me. Super expensive, overcrowded and very dirty. The surprising part though was that the food wasn't that great either, I love "Italian" food, I just didn't love it in Italy as much as I do in other countries which was a surprise. It doesn't help that you're paying $25 for a small bowl of pasta either.

I didn't really like Cancun either which surprised me, the clubs were too crowded to enjoy and you had to always be careful to avoid the crime when leaving, only place that I've ever had multiple issues on that front. The towns and sights around Cancun made it thoroughly worthwhile though, Cancun itself is the only negative surprise I had.

Dude, you have to look a bit at the history.

Tirana was just a small village 100 years ago and was chosen as capital of Albanians because of strategic reasons.

However even during communism it looked like s small austrian town, but with the construction permissions that city got larger and not with the right architecture.

However, there are many nice places in Tirana and is a very good city in terms of bars and restaurants and other services, plus that it has many night clubs. On this regard it is better than many other balkan capitals

There are castles around and some interesting attractions you find in trip advisor.

However going in Albania and staying in Tirana is idiotic thing to do.

Real Aklbanian architecture and culture is found in UNESCO cities such as Berat and Gjirokaster or other Albanian traditional towns such as Shkodra and Korca.

Small Orthodox towns such as Voskopoja and small city-fortress of Kruja where the fate of Europe was decided when Albanians crushed with Ottomans for 100 years mot not be missed.

Seaside, especially the south and northern Albanian Alps are a must also.

You have basically seen nothing.

As for Budva, there are many russian uper classes that go there and half of tourists are russians and that is why you see many good looking women.

In my experience , there are a lot of serbian and russian girls without boyfriends there, but it depends where you have been.
