Along_the_Wire It’s a bit sterile, and expensive, with none of the rough and tumble of other parts of Asia.

I found Saigon much more fun, despite almost being killed by some motor vehicle or other every day I was there.

      Berlin!
      London is an also-ran and should be midtable IMO. Planned on visiting Tokyo for the Olympics this year, but obviously that all went to shit. San Francisco should be up there also. Naples is a dump, foods good though.

        London’s great if you want a barely full club that’s depressingly about to be sold off for ‘properdee’, then a dangerous ride home in a Datsun from someone who only three weeks prior was in a civil war in Sierra Leone.

        And that was before COVID.

        S to the werve.

          bosstrabs I have had my doubts on the sterility angle - it looks it in all the PR shots. Might just make it a stopover on the way to somewhere else

              Along_the_Wire That’s what I did - 2 days there on my way to Oz and 2 days on the way back. More than enough tbh.

                seanc80 I think it’s a bit overrated. Full of absolute twerps (mainly the Brits you get there).

                  LT42 If this is about the albums then a total and final ban request for J, that topic should never ever appear in a thread again lest you be shunned and ostracised

                  It’s about the locales.

                  Agreed on me deserving shunning and ostracizing, ’though.

                    Yeah but after I’d been. I dunno. Guess I just had these silly romantic ideas of all things Italy without taking into account that people exist and people make a mess.

                      a year later

                      I like to do Singapore once a year to experience true first world living. Can’t say I’m a fan of the weather, it’s humid af but I mean, if you play your cards right you can be in AC through the day. The food and shopping is second to none in Asia imo. Wouldn’t mind doing a couple of years in either Dubai or Singapore, make some money tax free. But yeah, draconian laws for weed makes me think it’s not a long term choice.

                      My top 5 for living would be:

                      1. San Francisco
                      2. Amsterdam
                      3. London
                      4. Los Angeles, though I’d probably either drive an hour south or north to OC or Santa Barbara to live.
                      5. Bangkok

                      Besides London, the common factor is weed is legal and the food is great.

                        I imagine NYC is like Mumbai, hectic. Not really my scene.

                        BlainSA it’s almost there. Medical is. Will be tourist legal in a year imo.

                          Weed?

                          Are you still at College or Uni?
