No I have work in the morning.
But if I didn’t and my wife was going too, hell yeah
Europe, yes
UK, no
USA, no
Mexico, yes (so long as my flight doesn’t land in the US)
You mean EU countries or UK? Former yes (safest place in the world right now)… the latter, maybe (not so safest).
Western European countries are the safest in the world, really:
- No killings by police/ICE and no arrests for undetermined time
- People do not walk around with guns
- Mostly clean — no air pollution and drinkable water
- Higher standards of food safety in the world
- Cheap food and transport
- People are vaccinated
- High level of education mean that most people will speak at least two languages (i.e. dumb-anglophones-friendly)
- Higher levels of data privacy in the world
- very low levels of criminality and disorder, more so when compared with other “developed countries” (i.e. USA, UK)
Can add more to the list more if you need.
Paris didn’t look very safe last time I looked
Maybe I’m really wrong, but haven’t got any reports of tourists been beaten by police or protestors. According to my French students, violence was confined to certain areas within the city centre. I may add, these are far less dangerous than the Capitol attack in 2021 – people don’t carry guns. Demonstrations are peaceful during the day. You will be fine and almost surely able to avoid them if staying away during the night (unless rioting is your thing). Just pay enough attention where you go.
–UPDATE-- just read this: https://www.thetimes.com/travel/advice/is-it-safe-to-travel-to-paris-france-latest-advice-20332w88s
It’s not wise to go to the centre of those protests on specific weekend days, sure. So that means that it’s fine to go to 99.999% of Europe. Even going to Paris will be perfectly fine on protest days, because it’s a huge city.
In a heartbeat
I would love to live in Italy, France, the Netherlands
Bitch I’m broke. But yes
yes but I’m a tight arse, it’s a long way from Australia and GHG emissions are too damn high already
Absolutely. Going again next year. What’s the problem?

I lived in Germany for 10 years when I was younger. I’d love to go back and visit if I could afford it…although I might tell everyone I’m Canadian, eh!
Hell no Europe is ass
Well, it would be hard as someone linguistically dumb when it comes to basically all the languages there, so the only place I’d probably end up going is Ireland. Either way, wouldn’t mind going if I could afford it.
People can speak English pretty much everywhere
But at the same time, I don’t want to come off as a dumb tourist wgo didn’t even bother learning any of their language. It just would feel kinda wrong to ne, like I’m somehow disrespecting their country.
I can assure you, outside of France, no one gives a shit if a tourist doesn’t know the local language.
That’s a wierdly (un)specific take… The attitude towards foreigners differs from person to person all over Europe. Europeans are diverse people in the best and worst ways.
Just learn how to say hello, thank you, good bye, people would be more than happy.
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.
the weather
yeah, the americans are used to tornados, they wouldnt be able to sleep at night without the base noise.
Its the heat, but also the lack of air conditioning. Americans in the south also put up with heat, but they don’t have an issue with adding air conditioning to their buildings like Europeans do. In France a substantial portion of the population thinks AC is immoral.
Edit: Downvotes don’t change reality
No I don’t want to be social I want to focus on my obsessions at home. Maybe in 6 months
Sure, why not?
I’d love to go to Ireland or EU anywhere. But I get one day a mouth off a year-ish.
Ireland is in EU
