Rainy nights and beautiful lanterns in Hoi An, Vietnam. I would love to go back, it's magical.

It's pretty, especially at night when the town and lanterns light up, historic, a UNESCO World heritage sight which I'm a big fan of, but damn I just felt like it was fake. It felt like Disney world, the only place in Vietnam where I saw more foreigners than locals. They were selling those lanterns with candles to float down the river which looks beautiful, but if you walk down you'll see them all wash up in a big pile, every single night. It's wasteful and not eco friendly.

Pyramids of Meroe, Sudan

https://i.redd.it/9frgrfrjgny11.jpg
So I enjoyed Sudan a lot, only had a limited time there but got to see Meroe, Naqa, and Musawwarat. Me and the guy I went with were pretty much alone at all three sights (there were archeologists at Musawwarat doing excavations/restorations but no tourists, and we met an Aussie guy at Meroe who had pitched a tent next to the pyramids and spent the night there. Managed to see the pyramids both at sunset and in the morning next day. Otherwise Khartoum is a nice city with lots to see, I found it really pleasant to walk around it, super nice locals and absolutely no hassle which is a big contrast compared to their neighbour Egypt. Sudan has also loosened up the previous restrictions a bit, travel/photo-permit is no longer needed to take photographs or leave Khartoum, seems like the Visa is a bit easier to get now too.

Egypt Trip 2021: Biggest mistake of my life
I just got home from a 2 week trip to Egypt where I went to Cairo/Luxor/Sharm El Sheikh with a group of friends. Dear god, what a mistake. If this post can deter anybody from going and spending money in this country, it served its purpose. I’ve never been anywhere where the general population was so misogynistic and disrespectful to women. You are completely and blatantly lied to and ripped off by everyone everywhere - regardless of how “savvy” of a traveler you think you are. When you are not dealing with that you are battling constant food poisoning despite "playing it safe" and eating in the higher end hotels (Sofitel, Marriott, etc). The street food in Southeast Asia is safer. The joke is truly on the tourists who choose to come here. Want to go to the Pyramids? Prepare to get harassed and haggled into getting on a dying horse that will be beaten and whipped to keep moving. Want to go inside the Pyramids? Prepare to be cornered and shaken down for everything in your wallet. The same goes for Karnak and The Valley of the Kings in Luxor. Make sure you don’t go into any corners or tight spots because the people “working” there will block you and make you pay them. Sharm El Sheikh? If you are a diver than the red sea is beautiful, everything else including the hotel is an absolute Russian wasteland (my wife is Russian I can say this). Think it’s cheap? Speak English and your prices are pinged to the dollar. Even the doctor at the Sofitel in Cairo will charge you $300 USD for a covid test (costs around $80 USD everywhere else). I consider myself a savvy traveler and I have been all over the middle east, some places better than others. This is the worst place I have ever been to and I highly recommend you pick another destination. A real tragedy for 50% of Egyptians who are nice people, because the other 50% have ruined the country. I am a male in my 30's.

Early Morning arrival to Tikal, Guatemala.
null
https://v.redd.it/511jguw8pdg21
I suppose this is as good a time as any for my Tikal story. My first visit was about 30 years ago. I will never forget sitting on a ledge of one of the temples above the treetops at sunset and hearing the jungle come to life. I looked over to the far end of the ledge and saw another guy my age smoking a doobie and writing in his journal. Joined him for a smoke and a chat while we watched dozens of colorful toucans and macaws effortlessly cruise along the treetops while the sky put on its own color show. As night fell, we descended to the courtyard and listened to a guide tell stories of human sacrifice and the like by the light of the moon. When it was time to leave the park, the guide suggested we not use flashlights and to form a line and listen to the sound of the footsteps of the person ahead for guidance. After departing the open courtyard, I could initially make out the white t-shirt of the person in front of me but soon, the dense blackness of the jungle took over and I could see nothing, not even a faint moonbeam could make it through the dense jungle canopy. But if I looked left or right off the trail, I saw dozens of sets of eyeballs silently staring back at me. It was the howler monkeys watching us pass. Or was it? 25 years later I took my daughter to see this special place. There were no toucans and fewer macaws, the sunset not quite as golden as I remembered and they kicked us out before nightfall, but sitting up on that ledge and having a chat with my daughter made the second trip even more memorable.

I just hiked to the second tallest waterfall in the world, Tugela Falls in South Africa.
null
https://i.imgur.com/CofNvJ7.jpg
Tugela Falls, the second tallest waterfall in the world by total overall height, is located in Royal Natal National Park in the Drakensberg region of South Africa. The moderate 14km (8.7 mile) hike is approximately a 4-5 hour return, and an afternoon thunderstorm is very likely. Entrance fees to the park cost R45pp (~$4.00pp) and hiking fees cost R75pp (~$6.00pp). You are allowed to camp overnight anywhere in Royal Natal National Park, sunrise views from up here (~3,000m / ~9,800ft) would be incredible! The 7 kilometer hike to the top of the falls included several stops to watch intermittent clouds fill the valley below. After climbing the famous [chain ladders](https://i.imgur.com/mFOJz9i.jpg), we were in the clouds where visibility was reduced to no more than 50 meters. As we arrived to the falls, a dozen or so other hikers had already departed in disappointment, some had lost sight of the trail and others had missed the falls entirely due to poor visibility. When it started to rain, we took shelter in a nearby hut to weigh our options. Two more hikers arrived to the falls and quickly turned around when it began to thunder. While waiting out the rain, we read stories etched on the walls about people who had lost their lives from falling, and others who were stuck in the hut for several days due to torrential rains. Feeling defeated, we put on our ponchos and began the 2 hour, 40 minute trek back to the car park. Just shy of 1 kilometer into the return, we looked back to see that the cliffs had cleared enough for a possible subpar viewing of the falls. Despite thunder booming nearby, and adding an additional hour walk in the rain for possibly nothing, we sprinted back to the falls for another look. Our gamble paid off, this time we had a mediocre view of the falls and it appeared as if we were standing on the edge of the world. Moments later, the sky cleared, and for an entire hour the Amphitheatre was our playground.

OP was very lucky to catch this. Worth noting for anyone rightly awestruck by this, is that whenever you plan trips in hopes of seeing aurora, never take seeing a display of it for granted. It depends on the cloud cover, [light pollution](https://darksitefinder.com/map/) (OP was probably really far away from any of that), the time of year (end of Aug to start of April for N hemisphere) and solar activity. We're currently at a solar minimum. The Kp index from 0-9 is used as a measure of activity and I'd say the display shown on the pic is probably a Kp5+ (geomagnetic storm) display with pink/purple colours clearly visible. Kp4/Kp5 happens only once or twice a month, Kp6+ probably a few times a year, if any: This month the [27-day outlook by NOAA suggests no geomagnetic storm for the foreseeable future](https://www.swpc.noaa.gov/products/27-day-outlook-107-cm-radio-flux-and-geomagnetic-indices). You don't have to have a high Kp to see aurora though, but in general higher Kp means more vivid and dynamic displays, and conversely sometimes you might not see aurora with a Kp5 forecast. Apologies for the ramble: Always see aurora sightings a bonus and focus your winter trip on other things: Hiking, snowshoeing, sightseeing, seeing Santa etc. etc. Renting a car, with the help of the following tools: * Aforementioned Dark Site map * Real-time satellite cloud-cover image data websites like Sat24/Windy * Real-time solar activity data websites such as Aurora-Forecast * Edit: Real time panoramic sky cameras (esp. [Lights Over Lapland](https://lightsoverlapland.com/aurora-webcam/) and [Aurora-Service](https://seetheaurora.com/webcams)) that give you direct visualisation of what the skies look like. Since aurora take place hundreds of km above ground, if you see signs of aurora from a camera 100km away, chances are you will probably see it as well given similar weather conditions. , is much better than booking organised tours for aurora hunting as you have greater mobility and flexibility.

McDonald’s in the US is the worst version of McDonald’s.
Hello y’all! Spain you can buy beer, espresso, pastries, chicken wings. Finland has espresso, pastries, amazing macaroons. Italy you can get pesto, chicken wings. Also it’s cheaper and better quality. I’m not saying McDonalds is good or you should consider it when you travel. But American McDonald’s is the worse version.

Fun fact: In Chicago, there is a McDonald’s that serves some of the international/global food items. It’s known as the “Global menu” McDonald’s.

You have beautiful composition, fantastic photos! Would be tough to choose my favorite but something about the depth perception of the Balinese girl in the waters in black and white is flawless. Hope your wife's foot is better! What were your top 3 places to visit? Did you by chance visit Portugal, Spain, Morocco? We're heading there in may, wondering if you'd suggest some must see's/do's?

Singapore is quite fantastic

I was backpacking in Thailand and my visa expired, so I had to leave for a few days in order to get a new visa on arrival. Anyway, I flew to Singapore on a whim since I found a Japanese airline selling seats for $50. It's kind of a strange city though. Compared to the entire region, it's just so much more developed. You can drink the tap water, everything is in English, they really g out of their way to protect tourists. They exchange rate is on par with dollars and euros. The best part was the food I think. The Hawker centers and food halls around there had so much stuff that was so particular and unique. You can go into so many buildings and there would be all these electronics malls and even more food and interesting shopping areas. There's also a ton of really cool art galleries, a whole culture of ex-pats living abroad, international students, etc.

People who are proud that they leave their 9-5 desk job to “travel the world” and making it seem like everyone else is doing it wrong.
On my recent travel, I met your typical late 20-somethings couple who proudly declared that they left behind their desk jobs to do this, and wondered why everyone else seems miserable. I was a bit annoyed at the condescending tone, as I told them that my vacation is ending soon and I have to go back to work the day after I land home. We can’t all afford to leave our jobs as and when we please. We, the miserable 9-5 people, keep the economy going so people like you you can afford to do this whimsy take after the wind travel you so desire. I used to work in hospitality and received an average of 20 emails a day from travel bloggers who wants a stay for free in exchange of a shitty blog and Instagram post. I usually read their ‘about’ page and they’re ALL the same - they left their deskbound job la la la, they want to see the world la la la. Like I too travel and see the world AND get to keep my day job. What makes you special?? Don’t look down on the 9-5 folks and assume we are all miserable. I keep this steady job because it allows me to be wild and fancy outside of it.

I wouldn't worry about it - if they feel the need to be condescending about it to you, it likely means they feel insecure about their own choices.

Went to Stonehenge. Had an opportunity to go visit before it was open to the general public. It was so eerie and cool to see the site before it opens to the public.

I did this too a few years ago. It was magical. Many people talk about it just being a bunch of rocks but its uncertain history and pure longevity were somehow touching. And being able to walk among the stones was something that felt quite exclusive especially when most people don't even know that the opportunity exists. As OP says, you must sign up for this long in advance. I believe we signed up 5 months before our trip. Even then it's either before normal opening or after normal closing. Ours was sunrise so we had to arrive before the sun came up. Astounding. If you have the opportunity and have any inclination, DO IT.
