In a heartbeat. But alas, I am a wage slave in the U.S. there is no travel for me.
Yes, of course. It’s the place in the world with single highest culture density. Drive three hours and you’re in a whole other country — different language, food, music, history.
Go to Italy and see stuff humans built before Jesus was born. Drive four hours and see the majestic alps. Drive three more hours and you’re in France. This is where Hemmingway was when he wrote his books.
It’s mind bending that this is a reality. Of course I’d travel Europe.
And if you dont like driving, you can choose to take a train. I love the trains in italy
I just came back from traveling around central europe. I did get a respiratory infection for my effort though.
'tis the season
Yes I would. I’ve been before, and had a great time. I’d love to revisit the Rijksmuseum, eat goulash in Prague and drink a beer in Hero’s Park.
Yes. This…. was a stupid question.
If I could I def would
Absolutely. Airfare is just too outrageous. It costs the same to fly there as it would to stay a week or more there.
We moved to Europe a year ago. 100% worth it, even if Germany is a paperwork monster. We’re loving the people, experiences, food, cultures, and diverse people. Just wonderful. If you can do a visit, do it.
Considering I’m in the US…yeah. In a heartbeat.
Half hoping Spain gets woke enough to offer asylum to the descendants of their colonizing days, honestly. I got two different flavors to pick from and I can lisp my ‘vosotros’ like a champ.
why wouldn’t anyone travel to europe?
I think it’s basically referring to this: Russia Tries to Turn France’s Violent Protests Into a Disinformation Weapon, EU Investigation Finds
so political nonsense?
that’s going on everywhere in every country, tourists generally aren’t aware of it because it doesn’t impact the touristy parts.
It isn’t really going on in Finland. Although, I think it should be going on here as well. I’m getting quite scared of how this nation seems to accept everything.
Absolutely. If money wasn’t an issue, I’d go as much as I can. So many places and cultures to experience that only need a couple of hours of travel by land. In the US, you can drive for 12 hours in Texas and still not leave the state.
Definitely. The amount of crime in the small old mill towns in my area make Europe seem like Disneyland even in the midst of protests going on. When I went out of town for school I realized I had a much higher threshold for sketchiness than a lot of my peers because of the situations that become normalized.
I’ve been looking Europe for hiking down the road, and boy does not having bears in a lot of places make logistics a lot more manageable. Carrying a bear vault + spray is a decent amount of added weight/space/hassle.
No. But only because I don’t want to come back to US CBP and deal with their nazi insanity.
Well, also depends where in europe. Like hell I’m setting foot in the UK for the foreseeable future.
Why not. Pretty cool places to visit. Even though people are hot and bothered about this and that and some rightfully so, others on some weird tips, I would totally visit my friends in Europe if I had the time and $$$.
I would go in a heartbeat. Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Poland, Germany… I loved it all.
Protests like those in France wouldn’t stop me from going to Paris, they would just change where, when and how we go. I celebrate the spirit of the protests. If I were younger and single, I’d want to join in solidarity. As my older self, I’ll have to resign myself to reading about it over a great coffee and croissant.
