If you're the kind of people who travels a lot, that plans on traveling later or that you finds it 'cool', 'in' or any other bullshit capitalist buzzword you can find', you're a fucking moron and I'll show you why, you fucknut.

Traveling has absolutely no fucking point in 99 percent of the cases when it's done during leisure time, that is to say outside of utilitarian traveling, like business matters or actually visiting family).
When you ask people what they like, they're such fucking programmed drones that they'll always answer the following: «M-Me? Well I like going out, going to the movies, reading and of course traveling!»

«Of course».

Traveling «Of fucking course». Like it was some compulsory shit that everyone had to do, and if by some fucked mean you don't like them, you'll be treated as a nutcase that's somehow out of the loop that never got the ultimate meaning of life: going around the world.

But like I just told you: traveling has no use 99% of the time. When you ask a dumbass who likes that shit why it's actually a GOOD thing to travel, the drooling retard will ALWAYS give you the same shit: «Why, it broadens your horizons and shows you new cultures!»

New cultures, oh yeah. We're in for a wild ride.

But actually no. Back when you moved around the world a century ago, you could legitimately find new, completely different cultures from that of your own; but this is fucking 2018 you turd, globalization has made every culture the same liberal one in every destination. First off there's absolutely no god damn cultural difference in any occidental country; you'll live the exact same be it in France, Norway, Spain, Italy England, U.S.A. Or even in fucking Greece of all places. And since I'm seeing the first retards get agitated here, i'll ask the questions that hurt: what differences, except the language and sometimes the food?

In every country in the Occident, from Ireland to Australia, people dress the same. Work the same jobs. Have the same pastimes. Look at the sports while eating the same pizza. Read the same trendy books. Twirl their dick on google. Do their jogging when they're up to it with the same sneakers and the same water bottle. Even when you say English and Spanish litterature aren't the same, we know damn well you don't give a shit about that you fucking wanker.
And by the way, what are the tourists activities? Skiing in Switzerland, beach in Spain, diving in Greece... Well damn you cunt, you could've done everything at home!


I'll challenge you, even: ask every single one of your accoitances what they did when they went abroad that they couldn't do back home.

They'll stutter and piss themselves there and then.

«Oh but what about the beautiful buildings?You can find the Tower of Pise in bumfuck Ohio!»

Well why would anybody give a flying shit about them monuments? The monuments you look at them when you walk by, but you've never heard anyone say «I'm going to Paris just to look at the Eiffel Tower!», or «I'll head straight to Belgium and stare at the Manneken Pis because I'm lost in life without it».

You know what's the proof that people couldn't give a shit about monuments? Because they take pictures of them.
Myself, the first time I kissed a girl, I didn't snap that shit with my phone because I knew I would remember it forever. Pictures are meant to not forget forgettable things. You forget the meaningless shit and one day you'll say «Wow look at this, it's me and our gay cousin Rudy infront of Big Ben!»

Proof that you entirely forgot that crap, because between us, I'd like to know what effect could procure a random building except «shit, can you believe people already stared at that pile of rocks back in XXXX? Well now let's eat something».

«Well you know, maybe people travel a little further than that!»

Oh yeah, China, Japan or even Brazil, those totally aren't occidentalized.

«But India, Peru, Egypt, those are exotic countries!»

Oh sure. And what did you do when you went there?

«I met wonderful people!I visited villages, looked at how people lived there!»

Oh really.

And what did it add to your way of life? What's the difference between looking that shit up on TV, and going there?
Well the answer is simple: it's the image of yourself you're giving.

At the end of the day, traveling is nothing more than a mean to appear better in society, every other faggot will pass as an adventurer even though he spent two weeks in his hotel room. He'll look like a raffined lad even if he took a picture of the Taj Mahal while dodging pickpockets. He'll be considered a happy, cheerful cunt even though he went straight back ot his rotten office as soon as he came back, and still is the most despicable, retarded piece of shit.

It's nothing but appearances, because the only point in traveling is to say to yourself «I went abroad,!» as if you discovered the meaning of life. And society is actively maintaining this way of thinking, «all brothers of the Earth», thinking that eating shrimps in Hanoï, you've met your soul mates when you just went there to fuel the tourisù industry.

We found people castrated and timid enough to work 48 weeks a year, and when you allow them to take a break, they'll spit several thousands over a few weeks they'll spend elsewhere that are no different from their home, but where they'll cash out in record time.

Not convinced, I guess? Still persuaded that you've lived the best human experience?

Well let's try this again: Next summer, you spend your hard-earned cash in plane tickets, go where you please, but you'll go there alone (without impressing your ugly girlfriend or flex on your friends), and above all, you'll have the obligation to never mention your trip to your accointances: nobody will ever know what you've seen, where you've been. We'll see if you still want to travel, dumbass.

Yeah my dude, you're realizing that your passion of traveling, is nothing but a social norm hailing from consumerism.

When you're done traveling, you'll be that obnoxious piece of shit going around, telling people nothing but «Hey, back then when I went to Australia...» when nobody fucking asked your shit, because it'll be the only conclusion here: make people believe you've got a past, something you actually lived, when you've lived nothing, and you're still the same piece of shit, else, or elsewhere, or all around the world you empty shell of a bitch.

By the by, when you came back home, you resumed your shitty life. Nothing has changed for you, you learnt nothing valuable, you didn't discover anything, and if at any single moment you felt like you grew a soul just like in your favourite movie, it's because for a split second, you actually thought you escaped capitalism hell alienating the modern world, you actually thought yourself free and englightened by wisdom, but you still came back to be a cog in the machine, and you went back to your old ways, the same person, with just a tad bit more pretentiousness, and tad bit less money.

Can't wait for the next summer, because you don't have anymore money looking at the ticket prices, but doesn't matter, you'll always be able to convince yourself and others that you're free and the happiest you've ever been, and if some random dude tells you that you're just a dog happy to get his treat, you'll always be able to show him the latest iPhone you got, and your $900 Armani coat that shows you really are someone.

There is an experience you get by visiting the historical monuments that you can't get by looking at a picture. Pictures don't capture it.

When I go traveling I feel a connection with my ancestors that I don't normally feel.

There you cunts, I posted my rant.

I don't know what happened, I couldn't control myself.

For the record, I don't like to talk about my traveling experiences with anyone. I only ever bring it up if they absolutely insist i tell them about it.

ok

this

listen OP it's much simpler than you're making it.
even children, if you tell them you found something interesting, will want to see it.
OP is autistic and that's it

just booked my ticket to Finland and Estonia yesterday, I'm going up to Lapland to go on a reindeer sleigh ride under the aurora.

No, we don't have reindeer sleigh rides and aurora in New Jersey

My gf is a flight attendant so we get to fly around for nearly free, and I would say you're mostly right. Rome was nice because there was so much great architecture and so many statues to see, but stuff like Australia was same shit except I got to pet a koala, which was really not worth the price of entry. I went to Tanzania when I was 17 with family and that was one of the biggest redpills of my life

>this is fucking 2018 you turd, globalization has made every culture the same liberal one in every destination.
>t. never traveled outside of shithole EU

Well no shit, unless you go to legitimate shitholes like Koweit or Afghanistan.

>people that go on brief holidays but make light conversation about it are clearly not ‘well-travelled’ and this is an afront to my delicate sensibilities
wow that was hard.

normalfags need mainstream topics as crutches like you need to gulp frog semen.

i’ll bet you paint backpackers and working visa students with the same brush too. go suck a cobra’s tail, you quivering cunt. calm down, take out some annual leave, and bitch at your locals in your non-foreign foreigner-friendly Disneyland country.

Found the butthurt fag.

Salty Poorfag detected.

Pic related. This is one of the reasons for why People travel to other countries.

You dont have that shit in France. Right?

Jesus Christ man. Sometimes it's fun to look at something different. Just see something different. Why don't you pick a thread on Jow Forums.... reread it for the next couple years. Oh you don't want to reread the same thread over and over for years? You want to look at a different one? Now you understand why people travel.

Yes. Yes we do you fucking retard. You can dive in Corsica where there are hundreds of shipwrecks and plane wrecks that are ten times better than those faggot fish.

>all that blog whinging
lmao
NO U

You don't like travelling. Fine. I do. I like the adventure of going to knew places and finding foreign things. Everyone is different friend.

OP is right. The places that are actually different no one wants to go to, or the ones that do end up having terrible experiences when they get robbed.

But its really much simpler, people trying to run away from themselves

Wtf autism overload in here

I almost never travel, but I can respect a certain type of traveler. The type who will visit the French countryside and actually talk with the locals and learn about their views on life, while learning how real cheese and wine is made the old way. But that's basically what I'm doing here on Jow Forums anyway.

normies like to copy other normies by going to other countries and taking photos to post on normiegram to impress other normies, what's new?

Did you really have to write a whole fucking essay about it? It's far more sad to get all bent out of shape about it to the point where you write a bitter series of posts on Jow Forums

You're not wrong, but your anger is coming from somewhere else.

You're mad bcs your country would starve if foreigners stopped coming hahaha

OP's gf probably told him she would be travelling to Senegal so he's pissed lol.

Well, we don't all travel the same way. Some travel is good for the soul.

Warm summer day, not hot. Wind in your face. In the sidecar next to you is your beautiful wife, and she looks happy for once. She's smiling, and her heads on a swivel looking at the scenery.

You gently roll on a little more speed, planning for the upcoming hill, because the bike is old and underpowered, but cool as hell. Passing each car or truck yields a new smell. Manure from the old Ford, pipe smoke from the old guy in front of you. Perfume/body wash from the jeep full of girls that passed with the top off.

Add to that the sound of cicadas, the earthy smell of the fields, cut grass, cows, and what each house is having for dinner. The wind is strong enough that you have to lean into it a little, but not so strong that you can't hear the music in your headset, or your wife's little girl giggles.

The top of the hill has a pull-off for the scenery,so you dive in, pissing off the asshole that's been tailgating you for 20 minutes. Fuck him, he's jealous of your sweet ride.

The view is amazing. It's a clear day, no haze, and you can see Whiteface and the high peaks in the distance. Mt Mansfield, Camel's Hump, and Lake Champlain spread out before you like a lover with legs spread. Magical.

Where are you going? Who gives a fuck. You're having fun getting there. THIS is the travel of old. The travel of senses.

Immersion.

is this some kind of gay pasta? We're supposed to be bashing OP for being a bitter shut in, not vindicating him with cringey stories about travelling

>Some travel is good for the soul
>Where are you going? Who gives a fuck. You're having fun getting there. THIS is the travel of old. The travel of senses.
>Immersion.

Tldr but true. Traveling is a completely overrated status thing that only vapid shallow people obsess over. Which is why roasties loooove traveling, it makes them feel special and cultured for a week or two a year.

If you actually understand a foreign culture and the language, it may be worth it. Every euro should visit the US once, it will give you things to think about and help you see the US-euro difference in a real way. All European countries are pretty much the same now, yeah.
