Good day all! I plan to travel somewhere and get my first passport stamp in February 2015. I'm new to this forum and am soaking it in like a sponge.

I recently left a marriage of 8 years to a beautiful 1st gen Japanese girl. She became increasingly neurotic and emotionally abusive. Enough sob story. I've been back in the game for about three months all the time using Roosh as my prophet. I haven't been laid yet how ever. I'm standing by the method and working on approaches whenever possible still fighting approach anxiety and struggling with solo gaming.

I am an average build, black/white, early 30's (look mid 20's), funny, well spoken, bearded, and career minded guy. Important note is that I don't drink or drug at all. I don't need the confidence crutch either.
I know I am in my prime but I don't want to neglect it one day more.

Since my divorce I've grown keen on strip clubs for simple take it or leave it affection. I know this is not productive and a huge waste of money so I've self corrected this behavior. I never pull from these places and get distracted from attempts.

I recently got a passport and intend on using it mid February 2015 for the first time overseas. I've researched places for solo travelers on this forum but would rally like to travel with someone experienced in game and travel. I have no preference where I go but ideally I'm looking for less flight time and not high on costs. Money is not tight but I am by no means wealthy either.

Honestly, I pulled chicks before I married and usually targeted sluts. I was in my 20's and did drink at the time. I know this is a charity case and I will be forever grateful. I don't mind grenading initially to prove myself but I really just need a jumpstart back I to the scene.
Any advice, tips, or willing participants are graciously welcomed and regardless I'm gonna keep on course until this is my second nature.

Regards!!

I assume you want to travel outside of US. What's your budget and schedule like, i.e., do you want to travel for a weekend, a few weeks, months? I think you would have a better chance finding a travel buddy with more posts/reputation and a specific destination/time in mind.

For example: Lviv Ukraine, July 2015, $3K budget. I've seen a few post titles like that in the travel sub-forum. Once you've settled on a destination, research the data sheets for it or, better yet, write one yourself.

I'm hoping to travel for about 8 days, budget is about 3k. I'd like reputation and posts, just don't have anything to report yet. My ideas were Japan, Sweden, Cyprus, and Austrailia. Second week of February 2015. I'll share my recent near miss for some cred. I have nothing to gain here by being a troll/fake user. I'm simply looking for tips and/or a wingman. I'm getting lost in the forum with possibilities and research, I'm ready to pick one and go.

Sounds like you've had enough of Japan, Sweden will be very cold, I know nothing about Cyprus, do not waste good money going to Australia especially for such a short time.

Thailand perhaps? You don't need a travel buddy, you just need to open guys as well as girls when you are out. 50% of guys will be alright chatting with you as long as you have no social issues, and you get to meet all sorts of interesting guys that way.

@Urineluck,

Some constructive criticism is warranted for you as a first time poster. First of all please change your nickname ASAP. When I read it instead of thinking "you're in luck" I thought of below guy:


Also, here are a few things that you need to correct to garner a "travel buddy":

1. Important note is that I don't drink or drug at all
You'll notice from posts that vast majority of forum members drink and rely on night-game when traveling. While I am not saying you need to be an alcoholic you should at least pretend to drink a bit. A beer or glass of wine will never hurt you in a social (club) setting when women are around. Last thing any pretty girl overseas wants is to see a foreign guy sipping on apple juice.

2. Since my divorce I've grown keen on strip clubs for simple take it or leave it affection.
Strip clubs border on P4P action which is strongly discouraged and throwned upon in these forums. I would completely discourage this behavior. Instead please read Rooshs' book "Bang" for all the advice you need.

3. Honestly, I pulled chicks before I married and usually targeted sluts. I was in my 20's and did drink at the time. I know this is a charity case and I will be forever grateful. I don't mind grenading initially to prove myself but I really just need a jumpstart back I to the scene.
Hm, targeting sluts who are grenades? That would not help you improve your game (though some members may disagree with me here). I am of the mindset that quality always over quantity.

As a final thought don't ask, instead pick a destination that you're keen on visiting and then arrange for a meetup with an experienced member via PM.

I have to leave Peru in February. If you want to come to South America we can meet up somewhere down here. I'm always down to hang out with fellow Rooshers and game some girls on foreign soil.

Either way you decide to go I hope you have the best eye opening days of your life during your travels and it sparks something inside you that changes you for the better!

One thing I'd note, OP is that 3K is an awful good bankroll for 8 days. Not that you can't spend it, but really, you don't have to, and quite frankly its both wasteful and in my experience, more spending usually equals less connection to people when you're traveling for personal (rather than business reasons). Spend money to save time and be comfortable but make sure it doesn't end up isolating you (i.e. very high end hotels that are only biz or couples travellers, or in resort areas far from local populations).

Given the length of the trip, I'd suggest you not go further than Europe and maybe not even that far. Avoiding long flights and more importantly, jet lag, will maximize the limited time period you have to travel. Losing a day on each side for a 10 hr plus flight and another day half ruined over jet lag will minimize your return. As a result, I'd consider most strongly the Caribbean, South America, which also will work best given the weather. Europe around the mediterranean could be an alternative as well. I guess if you're in LA, you could go to the Philippines in 10 hrs of flying, game level of difficulty=0, but as a first time traveller, it might not be your best choice just on the basis of cultural adjustment. Also SA and the Caribbean should keep that bankroll somewhat flush for the next trip to follow. You won't need to spend much more than half of that for a very comfortable 8 day trip to one of those locations - check Mentavious' cheap overseas trip thread for deals on airfare.

When you say black/white, I assume you mean that you're mixed race, and that should play well in many places, or not negatively impact. I'd consider, based on personal experience or what I've read here, the islands indicated in the Carnivale data sheet (where the party is going in February), the Dominican Republic, Colombia, Peru, Mexico, El Salvado, or Brazil. I'd also download Duolingo or otherwise learn or brush up on some spanish. It can only help (not in Brazil of course).

I appreciate all of the feedback from you guys except for triple g. I am going to consider some closer places and perhaps Peru (thanks Creepin.) trippleg, My name is an intentional play on words = humorless. I'm not trying to impress guys with my name. I've read the book Bang and I've eluded to that fact. Most of your advice is unsolicited and I don't need my post dissected. I've been honest and forthcoming. I won't be pretending to do anything to get laid because I'm not a liar and I dont rely on lies to get chicks that is weak game, I might as well tell them I love them too. Grenades and sluts are referred to in separate ideas. I prefer to bang sluts and they take game as mentioned in the Roosh text. I'd be willing to grenade initially with a new travel buddy. Here's some advice to a long time poster such as yourself: Don't offer advice to people that aren't asking for it. My game is rusty not weak, all the best with yours.

@urineluck,

You need to relax. I thought your nickname was funny but if I miss-read it so may others. Also, I thought you were asking for advice "Any advice, tips, or willing participants are graciously welcomed " so I offered you honest advice. If you can't take constructive criticism then tough luck.

Post: #10

I can take constructive criticism on travel game, not on posting threads. I didn't come to this forum for any of that bullshit. This is a site about game not posting etiquette. If you don't have tips pertaining to the words I strung together in my original post kick rocks.

Post: #11

1) Go somewhere close: less than 6 hours on a plane. No point losing part of those 8 days.

2) Everything I know and have read about game says one thing is most important: logistics. For that 3k, get a 4 star and up hotel in the middle of a nice city, somewhere in Latin America maybe.

3) With that 3k, maybe consider some new clothes/shoes. Looking good is always nice.

What's with the conventionalist approach backed by an attempt to invoke peer pressure? Are we back in junior high?

If the man chooses not to drink, don't question that decision.

And your arguments don't even hold. I travel full-time and cycle alcohol consumption. In my dry periods, I pull higher quality and as frequently, regardless of location. Not to mention that I am significantly better off mentally, physically, and financially.

I encourage the OP to fly to Medellin, order an apple juice in Parque Lleras, and approach fearlessly. He will attract higher-quality women, part with less cash, and when the time calls, will have optimal physical performance.

It's seems as though I have ten days set aside so now I can cross water. I'm thinking Thailand since I have a friend there. With more time where would be the best place to grab flags and have an adventure?

First of all, welcome to the forum. It is a great place. However, I must comment on something that you posted. I think you are little off in the quote above. This forum is about being a man and covers many different aspects of that. While it is encouraged to be alpha in real life, it is encouraged that people are beta and polite on this forum. There are some solid men on this forum, men I respect and learn from. These men will quickly jump in and provide info, even to someone who is new. But I would like to suggest that you (and everyone) try and be your better angel. There may be a few guys that like to mess with the new posters, but all in all, these guys are here to be of service. If you don't like something (and it isn't a huge issue) just keep your frame, ignore it and move on.

I definitely agree with the wise words of GE about not traveling too far. Ideally, you find one place to settle for the duration as some bangs will take more than a night. It mght sound too methodical, but figure out the easiest places to travel to and then start narrowing it down. Once you find a couple of places, do some researching and post in the meetup section for those cities. I bet there are RVFers in probably every big city in the world. This thread might help, a recent one about Top 10 places. Mainly for some ideas. /thread-43944-...#pid926396

Also, may I suggest finding an RVFer in the city you are in and wing together. It seems like you mentioned you are rusty, so maybe some practice may help prep a bit for your adventure.

Once again, welcome and have a great trip.

Edit: Do you have an language skills? DR might be fun for you and it is close to the states. Spanish is needed from what I have gathered and there a bunch of guys that have gone through there.

Post: #15

Thanks SamSamSam, I appreciate the information and the feedback. I will take to heart. I'm gonna reach out to locals for some wingman action before I take off.

The problem is that when I think I've found a place I get derailed. As I research inevitably someone will say go here instead. Then I research and surely enough I'm somewhere else. I haven't left the continent and I long to. I'm finding some places are good for brown guys and some are not. Since I have more time I'd like to get further away and experience different cultures. So far I think I've narrowed it down to:
Thailand (I like Asians and reasonable cost)
Prague (seems lively and brown skin is exotic)
Japan ( again Asians, downside cost and time)

Edit: no foreign language skills aside from toddler level phrases in Spanish and Japanese

Post: #16

^^

A couple things, if I may.

1) I know there is a lot of color discussion sometimes, is this place good for x, etc. But I wouldn't let that drive to much of your decision making. As long as you have a good vibe, dress well and don't cat like a slimy American, you should be fine. Plus, hopefully, you will meet up with some RVFers, should be ok.

2) The getting derailed part, I hate to say it, is part of the journey and the fun of it. Even if you don't go to a place for your Feb trip doesn't mean reading about it was wasted. You can file it in the back of your mind for your next trip.

Well, I'll tell you this if you go to Thailand, there will be a ton of guys you can hook up with. If you really want to get laid, Philippines would be the place.

Post: #17

Honestly I wouldnt think youd want to go to Europe this time of the year its definitely the off season. Right now howevere Thailand is great, there are obviously lots of asians running around as its Thailand but there are alot of European chicks there now trying to avoid the cold that is currently engulfing their home land and they want cock as does every chick on holiday. Best to luck to you!

Post: #18

Urineluck, you should read some of the other Thailand threads now as they will likely answer your questions.
I found Bangkok to be the best for lays due to the local attitude towards sex. The girls can be extremely forward and sex can happen very fast if she likes you.
As for adventure, that comes from traveling around, different cities, the south beach islands etc.

Post: #19

Do not go to cyprus. Theres nothing there outside of June- September and even then its mostly a beach party scene for teenagers.

You dont have to drink or change your habits, but honestly your posts do make it seem like you could be a liiiittle uptight (I think it can be reasonably expected after a long relationship).

So while you dont have to drink, make sure you dont become a killjoy for your wingman.

Post: #20

I'll be in SEA during the time you're talking about. BKK, JAR and MNL.

If you happen to pick either one of them, I'd be happy to meet up.

Post: #21

Right on! Appreciate! Thailand it is. I love nightlife and this scene is my natural habitat. I'm usually the one last to sleep on weekends here and vegas so hopefully Thailand is no different. I'll focus and update accordingly.

Post: #22

Go to Colombia. You wont regret it

Post: #23

You will waste 2 days going to Thailand, there and back. Colombia is close, less than 10 hour flight from US.

Have you considered the Carnival in Rio on February 13 - February 17? A lot of guys hate it but I loved it. It's a hell of a party.

Post: #25

I've got tickets to Tokyo!
