Where did you absolutely hate?

India is a huge country and has a billion people. Saying you hate India is like saying you hate the United States. It just makes you sound dim because it’s such a generalization.

Okay, can you explain why? I am sure India is not terrible to travel to.

There's already a lot of posts earlier in the thread about India with specifics.
But yes, people should be specific.

Most of the new tourists coming back to El Salvador are really just natives of the country. Its only because the insane crackdown of gangs there that made the country safer and easy to travel through. I enjoyed ES but I am not sure if its equally the same as Costa Rica.

Id say Nicaragua is starting to be easier to travel to and safer than Costa Rica despite government issues.

I love how Dcumlandia has literally written off half of the USA as “no go” zones for political reasons yet has no problem with traveling to countries like Nicaragua and El Salvador (not to mention the bulk of Arab nations)…apparently politics and human rights on apply to Red States.

El “Maryland” has barely had any issues anyway.

I am surprised no one has mentioned Panama City (not the one in Florida).

My recommendation for anyone who suspects Vegas is not for them would be to fly in at night (because it is kind of cool to see all the neon from a few thousand feet above), play one of the slots at the airport, and then turn right back around and take a red-eye back home.

Las Vegas is ok for a day or two. The “glitz,” some might call “tackiness,” can be fun, but it is also a pretty depressing place. What Vegas does have going for it is a central location to a lot of cool places in the SW- Death Valley, Valley of Fire, Zion, Bryce, Mt Charleston and Red Rock Canyon is literally right next to the city.

NP—I loved it but get why people don’t.

It’s a lot to take in.

I like most places, but two that I despised were Myrtle Beach and Gatlinburg. I did find the beach and water nice in Myrtle, but everything else, no thanks. As for Gatlinburg, love the Smokies, but the town is not my cup of tea. And some might say I’m a snob, but I love Ocean City (in small doses), but at least in OC I can be there in 3 or 4 hours. Why would I drive ten hours on 95 (that’s how long it took us) for the same experience in Myrtle?

Sorry, but Spanairds are just assh*lish and flat out rude.

I also hate traveling most places in USA. The USA is just too goddamn expensive to travel in relative to the quality you get. Plus, all the tipping expected just sucks.

Agreed and I used to love traveling around the US and seeing National Parks, etc. I now only plan international vacations for the exact reasons you stated. It's such a better value for the money.

As for India, I lived in India for a few years. I get why the PP said they hated it. The worst thing about it was the air pollution. It's something that you just don't understand unless you go there. It's that bad. But I loved traveling all around India but you cannot do it on a shoestring budget if you want anything that resembles travel expectations in the West. Else you will be stuck with accommodations with bucket showers, no AC, squatty toilets/no tp, etc.

These are the same people who gush about the tripe or chicken feet they bought from some third world street vendor but won't eat the mini quiches a coworker brought to the potluck because "ew, homemade food might have germs".

This is probably true! 😂 I have to be very careful traveling abroad because of stomach issues. Alas I will never be able to enjoy genuine street food anywhere- it's too risky.

Yeah, I also lived in India and wouldn't say I hate it but I totally get why people do.

Maybe the stereotypes that people associate with India, which I think is absolute BS. I am sure India has a lot of nice places to go through and it still holds a very rich culture. Some people are just ignoring it.
