Bangkok is one of my favorite cities. Very cyberpunk vibes. Huge, full of skyscrapers, impressive concrete infrastructure for the BTS skytrain, great architecture and design, super fancy shopping malls, lights, noise, tuktuks, street food vendors, prostitutes and ladyboys, cannabis shops, and advertisements everywhere for beauty products, cosmetic surgery clinics or various furutistic-sounding medical treatments. There are two ways to live in Bangkok: either you live cheaply in a poorly insu

I was staying in the Retiro neighborhood and let my guard down one night, and two thugs robbed me of my phone. I thought because the area didn't look as dangerous as some places I saw in Colombia, that I would be fine coming back from a bar late. I realize I was stupid, but it can happen to anyone. It's an interesting city with lots to do, but you definitely shouldn't let your guard down.

The 'pandemic' changed many things -- the cost of course, but also the culture -- the freedom and liberty have been contained. The police presence and size of the state have grown -- definitely doesn't feel so relaxed anymore. It's also important to note here -- there is limited ambition. Most are looking for an easy, fun and peaceful life -- which is great, but if you are building something or running a business it can fee

Your phone could be stolen and your bicycle WILL be stolen here (or a part of it). I live here 8.5 years and I experienced the above multiple times. Police seems only cares about crime against person by whatever reason. Insure everything expensive that you own. I would also add that antisocial behaviour is quite common here and teenagers are heavily involved in crimes as police don't do anything with them because of their age. Basically th

Portuguese do not understand the basic idea of a customer paying for a service and getting something in return. Many Portuguese explicitly stated to me they really just don't care about money. But at the same time they complain about not making enough money because costs are so high. That sums up the Portuguese mindset: I'm not willing to work hard at my job to deliver a good product or service, but I e

Great city for living. Yes, the prices now are higher and there is a lot of Russian, but city is peacfull and general safe. A lot of restaurants and bars. It is not like Europe, but has it own charm. For me a lot better place then their Yerevan or Baku. The nature is also great.

Senggigi is just one of its many long white sand beaches and a lot of them are still waiting to be discovered. Not much of a party going on here, but if you are itching for one, just hope to a speed boat for 15 minutes and you will arrive in the wild gili trawangan. I was only staying for 4 days, then I fell in love . Been here for 6 months and counting.

It is unarguably very different than rest of India, much more cleaner and with friendlier people. Beaches aren`t nice for bathing but are a great choice to catch sunsets everyday. Cost of living is dirty cheap and public transport is good. They even have a subway crossing the city with reminds me the BTS in Bangkok. Actually, Kochi to me is like a small and boring version of Bangkok, which is good if you need

Regarding activities, they are constrained to the touristic, such as museums, and hamams (saunas). I've heard that ther

It's overpriced for rocked down furniture and basically charge you western European prices. The only advantage they have that they are the only coworking in the center. Antalya is kind of nice, maybe better in autumn and spring, as it's super touristic. Also, i think one month is more than enough. Keep in mind that you need a VPN for some tools, and also then they don't work really well.

People are always trying to scam you, from taxi drivers to waitresses. It's fine for a three-day vacation which is more than enough but staying long-term is very subjective... Airbnbs are overpriced for what you get. Turkish hospitality is a joke. Theyโre really good at conning tourists here. I stayed for a month, but I should've just passed through. A layover at the airport would've been plenty.

Probably biggest pro of Katowice is cheap and big airport. Think of most boring city you've been to, Katowice itself is even more boring. I don't know how this place made it to nomadlist. However there are nice cities around which seem nice destinations for nomads like Gliwice, Bielsko-Biaลa, Pszczyna, ลปywiec. Moreover coworking space listed here on nomadlist - Wirtualne Biuro is not a coworking space at all. As you can read on it's website (adding URL blocked in review unfortunately) "This is

The place only seems lively in the summer. The rest of the year, most local businesses close their shops because there are no more tourists. Only malls are open all year. Most people don't speak English, so you are not likely to connect with people here. Many other cities in Romania like Bucharest (where I currently live), Cluj and Timisoara have much more to give.
