way to ruin my image of Europe as some futuristic, modern, clean wonderland that makes the UK look like shit, belgium
That is exactly what euro-elites wanted and achieved.

i would have gone to other cities, but all trains keep getting delayed and cancelled. took 3 hours to get to brugges , should have taken 1.
my train in the UK to London to take the Eurostar was punctual, clean and modern. Yet once I arrive in the "real" Europe, I find old trains with plastic seats and everything smells of pee and is delayed constantly.
where is the famous European punctualness?

look man, what are you even looking for, what are you trying to find? at this point you may as well just go to paris to maximize your shitty experience
Isaac Wood
Come to Bucharest. You'll love it :^)
William Hughes
I have been to Spain and portugal too, both worse than the Uk. but the UK is full to the brim of even romanians complaining constantly that the UK is awful for such and such reason.
now i realise why they are all in the UK to begin with. Europe is not all Switzerland like they pretend to be
seems you are spot on
Joseph Lopez
i went to bucharest in november 2017 really, but i never really considered it "real" europe so set my expectations low.
it was worse than i thought. a persistent grey fog over the country the entire week i was there. every other business was a strip club. there was graffiti on literally EVERY building lol, where is the pride in the city?
at least i had my expectations low for bucharest so i dont mention it much. i heard other places in Romania are passable, tho
Aiden Scott
>where is the famous European punctualness? Probably in the places of europe where people are punctual. Which is not most of europe.
Protip on your next troll attempt though, you failed the moment you implied that the cfapital of literally anywhere would ever be considered the height of what a country should be. There is no country on earth where the capital isn't all of its worst parts.

Well Bucharest is a shithole unless you know where to go, but there are beautiful cities too, like Brașov and Cluj.
Jackson Thompson
sorry but my image of europe as some wonderland has now been shattered, you guys always shit on the UK here which really warped my mind, your countries are either same in many ways or worse. additionally my captchas here in belgium are ten times more difficult than the UK, seems even google thinks this is some third world shithole? Even fucking captcha is better in england
John Gomez
london for its flaws is great overall though
Cooper Smith
>Brașov Unironically recommended. My trip through the Transilvania region was overall pretty great thanks to the small towns/cities in addition to the great hiking landscape.
Zachary Smith

Parker Cooper
Mate it's the same everywhere. It's all shit.
Samuel Fisher
>your countries are either same in many ways or worse Nah, Belgium is just shit with infrastructure.
welsh desu. always found reports of londons demise to be grossly exaggerated. in london the museums are free. in belgium train station, you have to pay to use the toilet.
i dont like it. I thought there we still amazing places in europe that made the UK look third world or something. nope.
maybe australia/nz are the last good places...

I normally live in London throughout the year and it's OK, the museum thing is the best thing about it by far, can go on a walk with friends and stroll through the exhibits, feels good.
But the metro also has a fuckton of delays all the time. If fucking Athens has less delays, you know you got a problem.
Dominic Cook
even romania makes the uk look third world
Brayden Brown
sorry but spain is noticeable poorer than the UK, notice it no matter where i go in spain. at least madrid has some shiny white buildings though. my hotel in the "modern" city centre still had a crt monitor lol
Is greece worse a visit? it wasnt eastern bloc so I expect it to be spain tier, not as good as the UK but still decent.
nah, this type of bullshit post is what set my expectations of "real europe" sky high, now I see it's all nonsense
Gavin Brown

Greece was absolutely demolished during ww2 and the civil war that ensued, it's absolutely not spain-tier and should not be expected to be.
Beyond that, it depends on what you mean by "worth a visit". Its big cities are much worse to look at compared to london since most flats were built during 60s with that shitty modern architecture. Bucharest is probably better looking than athens/thessalonki. The infrastructure is much worse than uk (except trains for some reason, they're really shitty in the UK + filled with drunk degenerates that constantly puke), the bureaucracy is one of the worst worldwide and people are EXTREMELY individualistic/family oriented, which is why nobody cares about run-down infrastructure and graffiti everywhere and why nepotism used to be (and still is to a certain extent) nearly universal.
Beyond the large cities it's more beautiful than most places in Europe, from the mountainous villages to islands. Which is why most people use the large cities as working cities and go to literally any other place in greece for holiday since they are truly beautiful.
William Clark
You need to go back to your island before i call the police. Britbongs are not allowed in Europe and you know that.
Samuel Ramirez
ok, my dad said athens is a shithole but the islands are stunning
Easton Anderson
To be fair even Athens has varying degrees of shittiness depending on where you go. Most tourists go to the centre of Athens where all the sights and museums are, and the centre is extremely dense, on par with the densest parts of paris and london according to eurostat, uniquely among european cities. The suburbs are much more livable and if you go to the coastal ones you might even find the more traditional greek red tiled roofs, which is generally what differentiates a nice looking city from a bad looking one.
But yeah the islands are in a tier of their own, there's a good reason they're so popular.
Nicholas Garcia
you portrayed london major european cities are so fucked up with bad infrastructure and it's full of shitskins
Hudson Wright
london is way better than brussels though, that's my point, euros here always paint europe as some sort of wonderland, but everywhere i go is meh
John Thompson
Greece is definitely worth a visit, but not its urban parts except maybe Athens for the Acropolis, and even then not more than a 2-day stay. Tbh, the cities aren't bad, they're just not worth a tourist's time.
Luke Fisher
try Stockholm
Henry Garcia
Seoul has the longest subway line in the world, and we have installed screen doors in the subway for over a decade. In South Korea, the air conditioner works in the summer and the heater works in the seats in the winter. There is also free WiFi. And most of all, it is so fucking clean. Europe is fairly dirty except Scandinavian cunts.
i might do rome next year, did not consider milan really. is it worth it?
Matthew Reyes
Wow it's like things are really nuanced and have pros and cons all over the world and one city doesen't account for a whole continent. wew lad

I had a good time at Amsterdam, but then again I'm not the drug/whore type. It has some great museums, the architecture is nice and the people that rented us their room were also great. It seems like many hotels there are just two/three storey flats whose owner rents the rooms to tourists.
The drugs/red light district are a nice oddity, but shouldn't be used to justify the trip by themselves imo.
Jacob Wood
Omg this hard scary Dutchman!! Don't le hurt me!!!
You fucking dykerat. Fuck your country, the Dutch are the fucking scum in the pond of shit that is the Netherlands. You've got your heads so far up your asses you're digesting your legs, literally all of you are trash.
If you don't trap hard you're a fuckin' toddler, go watch Naruto and crossdress, fairyboy.
>Good. degenerates like you should be in prison washing toilets >Posts anime
Listen mate. I know that you and and are all little weeb fucks who don't get invited to parties, who don't have any friends to do drugs with, no connections, and you're broke af, can't travel and never do anything but watch anime, get drunk alone and twiddle your noodle to hentai and trap threads on /b/.
It's a known fact. You want to act like you're some big guy, some glorious puritan Führer... Because you don't have any friends and don't have any life?
WTF m8s. Your delusions have exceeded the maximum. Try not to shit yourself from jealousy, Jesus fucking Christ
I dont need to be a degenerate to have fun and so do my friends, with whom I spend time productively in nature, church, in feast gatherings or in some educational trips in museums or events. You are simple primitive, for whom fun is "DUDE WEED LMAO" and "IMMA GONNA FUGG DAT SHEIT". Absolutely pathetic, to be called Image of God and child of God, while behaving in such manner.
You post anime pictures, and... You worship a dead jew on a stick m8. You literally think he can listen to your thoughts. It's absolutely retarded. The fact that religion is the >>>(!!!)IMAGINARY(!!!)
>in belgium train station, you have to pay to use the toilet. You have to do that in London.
The roads on the other side don't look too nice, either.
Justin Miller
I was going to post some semi-decent reply, but then I realized that I'm talking with mentally 14 year old stoner, with metaphysical daddy issues, who cant think of entertainment without sexual or other kind of degeneracy. And posting with r/eddit spacing Imagen visiting foreign country, the possibility to learn different culture, their customs, their architectural wonders, their monuments, their history. But nope, its only about WEED LMAO and whores. Then again, I forgive you, since, by judging your posts, you are still high, while posting this. >"So I went to the doctor >See what he could give me >He said "Son, son, you've gone too far. >'Cause smokin' and trippin' is all that you do.
