Sup /trv/?

I have saved up $8000 and I'm planning to backpack around europe. Staying in hostels and what not. Minus my supplies/airplane ticket it leaves me around $6500 to backpack around europe.

I want to know a few things though.

What necessary safety precautions should I take? Obviously I won't be traveling in the most safest/american loving part of europe all the time. Europe is also the most dangerous place in the world, or so I've heard. More wars have happened there then anywhere else. Can I bring a gun on the plane? How much does a kevlar vest normally go for in Europe? Is it cheaper to buy it on the black market? or just to buy it legally? Also I have stocked up on condoms, incase one of those european harlets rape me. I at least won't get AIDS. European girls have the highest rate of AIDS in the world.

>Can I bring a gun on the plane?
Are you serious? If they catch you trying to bring a gun on the plane they will shoot you so full of holes that you could be used as a musical instrument.

>Kevlar vest
I think you're a little over reactive here. Most crimes are committed with knives in europe nowadays, and kevlar doesn't stop knives. Also, don't buy shit on the black market. They call that contraband when they check your luggage.

>Stocking up on condoms, etc.
Lol don't go expecting to get sexed up just cause you're in europe. You'll be ronery over there too.

I'm not bringing condoms to have sex with european women. Why the fuck would I even want to touch those harlots? Every single one of my friends that has ever been to europe has been raped in nearly every country they've been to. I'm bringing them so I don't die of AIDS.

I Heard you could bring guns on if you alert the plane and shit though? And like pack them in a metal box with some huge locks on it and shit. Also a safe.

If you take a gun on the plane you're going to go to jail for a very long time. Here in Europe, violent crime is vastly lower than in America, mainly because we're not paranoid lunatics like yourselves and don't give out handguns in cereal packets. People might not like you for being American, but I can guarantee that you won't get worse than a dirty look or a jibe about the war. If you know how to behave in civil society, you can always pretend to be Canadian. The main risks you'll experience are opportunistic theft, pickpocketing, mugging and scams. The only useful counter to any of these is to be careful with your luggage, wear a money belt and keep your wits about you. Look around you, see what other people are doing and behave like that. The HIV infection rate in Europe is actually lower than in the United States.

I sincerely hope you're trolling, but I've met people with more ridiculous views than you so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.

Tell that to my friends who've been raped by fucking european whores. I've been to Europe more then once, and I love the landscape, but the people are incredibly racist. I've had to sleep on the floor in the street because hostils/hotels won't allow me in because I am "causing trouble." Or "I don't speak their language." Even when I use higher level french, then the french do. Europe is a racist continent, so enjoy defending the racist continent.

I'm European and I always wear a Rapex ( http://www.rapestop.net/ ) in my butt. Saved me from being raped quite a few times now.

I'm stuck studying in Europe and agree with you. Luckily I haven't been raped. I'm doing my studies here because 350 € a year for tuition fees sounds nicer than $ 15,000+ over in the States.

I call enormous bullshit on this. Listen, the stereotype that people don't like Americans is simply garbage. In fact, it appears that attitudes toward American tourists at least are pretty high, as we're among the 'best tourists' in the world:
http://www.reuters.com/article/oddlyEnoughNews/idUSL2273073120070523

I've been to Paris 11 times and not once have I ever encountered any form of 'discrimination'. For the most part, the way you get treated is the way you act toward others.

That isn't true.

>you won't get worse than a dirty look or a jibe about the war
The one that started when those two big airplanes went into those two buildings? The one that our NATO allies invoked Article 5 over and then (mostly) refused to actually fight in? That one? Excuse the fuck out of US. We're so terribly sorry to discomfit you by defending ourselves, you incredible cocksucking faggot.

Don't use your credit card in restaurants or hotels. Only use the card at ATM's, get cash, and pay cash everywhere else. Saves you a lot of hassle if someone tries to scam your card.

Drunks are the biggest danger in Europe, after that immigrants. Then there are the poor euros.

Figure on people trying to pickpocket you and try to rip off your pack n stuff. Surprising what they will try. Petty theft is rampant.

Clearly Europe is the wrong place for you, considering the INCREDIBLY high incidence of crime and Aids.

Might i suggest somewhere like Sudan, or possibly the DR of Congo? I hear you're much less likely to contract Aids from the girls there. As for violent crime - they don't even have a word for AK-47.

I sincerely hope you aren't being serious with this post.

OP is obviously a troll or hasn't traveled anywhere outside the USA. I've met a lot of ignorant fucktards, so option #2 is still in play.

If this is your first time traveling abroad, you are going to get scammed one way or another. Taxi-drivers, hustlers, etc are the universal scourge of the tourism industry. You might as well undergo your right-of-passage in Europe. Your alternatives are Russia, Asia, the Middle-East, Africa or Latin America. All of which are a lot nastier.

You are unlikely to suffer really bad things in Europe, unless you behave like an asshole. People don't like that, so don't do that. Anywhere in the world.

Unlike most of the world, you can usually find someone who speaks a bit of English in Europe. Backpacking through small towns in Eastern Europe is another story and doesn't sound like your cup of tea.

Some regions of Europe have conflicts. They are mostly ethnic in nature and do not concern you. When in a conflict region - don't take sides. As you seem ignorant, I'd advise you to avoid conflict regions altogether.

Carrying handguns is illegal in Europe. Kevlar vests are not on the common market. European girls are low on STDs (with the exception of UK girls) and you can buy quality condoms everywhere.

Once you arrive anywhere - be polite, considerate, learn a few of the local words and don't yell at people.

Well generally I'm a nice person. But the retards on the internet generally bring the worst out in me.

Now regarding being ignorant. I make it a point to make myself American. Infact, the only clothing articles I've packed are suits that look like the American flag. I'm going to be very cordial and nice, I just want to see how racist europe is.

Dude, save yourself the money, here's how:

2. Dress yourself in islamic clothes and make sure to mention to everyone that you have converted to Islam and how Allah is the only god and Mohammed his prophet
3. BAM! European racism, right there in your American town!
4. ????
5. Get lynched!

Obvious troll is obvious. Europe has no aids. In europe, you don't need a fucking kevlar. And no, of course you cannot bring gun into plane.

Well, Europe is awesome. So many places and cultures, good food, nice people and so on, good luck. If you want to be safe, learn some self defense.

Dear OP, why don't you go to Africa instead? You can sleep with a whole tribe of women for 5 dollars. And there is hardly any AIDS at all. If you come to Europe we'll go on and on about how we hate George Bush and how inferior you american pigdog infidels are.
