In a heartbeat
I would love to live in Italy, France, the Netherlands
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!
I mean I have my dissertation in 2 days so maybe not right now right now
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.
Absolutely. Going again next year. What’s the problem?
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
Am I paying for the flight?
As a Russian - no. Way too much risk
You can’t leave Russia?
Fortunately I left Russia in 2022
Then I don’t see what’s the issue imo. We have protests, yes but they’re their own thing. Maybe I don’t know enough about eastern EU but here in Spain things are very peaceful.
Like before the war I used to receive an answer regarding my visa application in 2 weeks. Last time it took 2 months and the result was a decline, even though I worked for European companies ever since leaving Russia.
Coupling this with Europe giving a platform for Valentina Matvienko (like the third top official in Russia), EU allowing Russian officials, oligarchs, propagandists, and their relatives to factually reside on its territory and the fascist tendencies in countries like Italy, Latvia, and, to some extent, Germany, I would prefer to keep a certain distance between the European project and myself.
In other words, you are too pro-Russian to me and I wouldn’t feel safe there.
Oh well, I wish you the best. These are indeed things I don’t know about.
Not without a bomb implanted in their skull and a mission to take down NATO
You can continue eating your shit flavored propaganda now when you posted this disgusting comment on lemmy
Travel there? I’m working on a plan to move there… though I’d travel as well if someone gave me the money.
I would not, no.
I’d wait for after the holidays when flights will be cheaper.
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
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
yeah, the americans are used to tornados, they wouldnt be able to sleep at night without the base noise.
Yes. Planning to, in fact. Just saving up for a year first.
Yes, of course. It’s the place in the world with single highest culture density. Drive three hours and you’re in a whole other country — different language, food, music, history.
Go to Italy and see stuff humans built before Jesus was born. Drive four hours and see the majestic alps. Drive three more hours and you’re in France. This is where Hemmingway was when he wrote his books.
It’s mind bending that this is a reality. Of course I’d travel Europe.
Come to Scotland. Drive 3 hours, still in Scotland. Another 3 hours, still in Scotland. Opposite direction and you’re in north England. Magical place.
xD
And if you dont like driving, you can choose to take a train. I love the trains in italy
What do you think of german trains?
They’re very comfortable but plan your transfers with plenty of spare time
They might eventually show up
Never been to germany
