Smoke a big ol' amount of meth.

Or, just have some tea and reflect on all the nice times you had traveling in the past.

the fact that ISIS has declared a caliphate means that there is now an increased risk of terror attacks due to heightened confidence levels

if you are captured convert to islam. they will at least give you a quick death instead of torturing you

I used to have a pretty neat beard when I lived abroad so I guess I could do it again.

I was going to post some arabic phrases about god here but I don't want to chance getting put on the no fly list right before my flight.


I heard on CNN that all those passengers are alive and well in Kazakhstan so that doesn't seem too horrible.

I wish it was something like that. I don't really have a fear of flying since I travel at least twice a year. It is just this weird tension. Maybe it is because I haven't planned the trip out like normal and am just kind of winging it.

none of those places are particular hotspots for pickpocketing, just keep your wallet in your front pocket and put your hand on it every time a stranger bumps in to you even if they are a pretty girl

Malaysia Airlines disclosed its cargo manifest on 1 May.[271] On 17 March, MAS chief executive, Ahmad Jauhari Yahya, indicated only that the aircraft was carrying 3 to 4 tonnes/tons of mangosteens

You're going to get ebola, miss your flight, and be kidnapped by mercenaries who demand things that your government will never acquiesce to resulting in your torture sessions stretching out for weeks and you'll die as a result of infection from broken bones rather than outright violence.

this is true europeans do some kind of strange things

like a lot of little things; a lot of buildings don't have screens on the windows so bugs will just fly in (when I asked people in Germany about this, they said screens look ugly. Italians say because the night air is bad for you so you can't open the window anyway.), the cute cobblestone streets are actually kind of annoying to walk or drive on all the time, idk a bunch of random poo poo

This is not a good idea in Berlin.

I recommend getting a wig and hide at least 30 Euro in it.

You probably won't have to overhear any conversations about Obamacare in a language you can understand.

On a less serious note, maybe you'll take something away from this:

This one time i was walking through unfamiliar countryside at night. I suddenly realised i was lost. My smartphone died, rendering me without satnav. I have a terrible sense of direction. All i could see in every direction was fields, and had absolutely no idea which direction to head. There was something strangely euphoric about standing in a silent field watching the sunrise, realising I was completely hosed and simultaneously totally okay.

Not sure what i'm trying to say with that maybe i'm just gay
