3rd world countries are underrated AF

nowhere else is as laidb ack and chill as 3rd world countries. the people there do not give a fuk about anything, not even their life or the lives of others. Take the video of this suicide plane crash for example. Calm filming by the bystander in HD while a similar thing in america you would have some chitty shaky cam footage with a hysterical woman wailing like a dying dog. even if you don't visit, they a treasure chest of videos thanks to the internet.

I agree tbh. Best places I ever lived were Vietnam and Indonesia. Everywhere else is boring, stale and lifeless in comparison.
Gymnastics / Oly Lifting / BJJ / Kickboxing /

I'm literally in love with the 3rd world. So much going on all the time. So much excitement. You can be there alone without knowing the language and never get bored. With CCTV and smartphones being widespread, there generally isn't much danger anymore.

The hippies beat y'all to it. They started ashrams in the 60's where little kids literally die of hunger and preventable infections like parasites and bacteria. Park your ass in one of those havens of barbarism and enjoy all the pain and suffering that your ancestors spent their lives trying to escape. Amenities include a full compliment of lice, cholera, malnutrition, child rape, rectovaginal fistulas in infant girls, no electricity or running water ... you name it. Bless your idiot hearts you precious morons. You've clearly never had to go hungry or work a single day in your entire lives if you can romanticize these horrors.

Eh, I visited the Philippines in a relatively poor city where I was the only white guy besides a few random Mormons. People were incredibly nice, had a few modern amenities but the difference between the life you are used to and how it is in a country like that gets magnified after a couple months.

Meh it's okay I've been to a 3rd world country before Kenya it's cool, but after awhile you do start thinking about coming back to the U.S.

Masaai Mara was dope though on a Safari seeing the animals just chillin in their habitat, and also venturing outside Nairobi....Nairobi is crowded, and the traffic is horrible no emission standards so the pollution is terrible...loud etc..you need to venture into the rural areas which are amazing brb lots of land brb can build your own house no mortgage or property taxes just pay for electricity, water, gas.

Like OP said though 3rd world countries do offer some interesting stories like this dude in Zimbabwe....ah finally I can go to bed what a long day...another long day tomorrow.....

My favorite vacation was in Rwanda. Besides the rape, genocide, beheadings, starvation, senseless murder and fear, I felt that it was a very misunderstood place that I could really make a good living in.

life is better over there. idk why people call em ****holes without ever experiencing what it's like. afghanistan for example is better than canada in the regard that post-secondary degrees are free in public universities and are the same value as any other degree in the world. also no need to pay insurance for cars.

people in asia even though a lot may be poor they still enjoy life to the fullest...there's festivals, and celebrations, and friendly and welcoming people socializing on the streets, girls everywhere and aren't cold bitches, can't say the same for the poor over here at all. the quality of life between poor and rich on this side of the world is ****ed. everyone is ****in miserable in this side of the world even the rich lol

asia is probably the best place in the world for quality of life right now

Yup, there is nothing quite like police demanding bribes and seizing your vehicle if you don't pay up.
Or corrupt officials planting drugs or bullets in your luggage so that you have to bribe your way out of the situation.
I won't get started on the pollution, nepotism and being a walking target for everybody else because you are a foreigner.

Wonderful places.

that's not how it's like lol. i managed a team of afghan refugees for about a year. most humble and respectful people i've ever met. i listen to what they say about their country instead of the media trash

they loved their life back home. i mean they did leave cause of ISIS. but before ISIS they had no issues in their cities.

also had a guy from iran, used to be an engineer, also one of the most humble and respectful people i've met. they also had free university degrees in public universities. and now he's an engineer here. he loved life back home too, house, and two cars, left cause of ISIS.

no one said life in a different culture cannot be enjoyable for them

he literally gave you examples of ISIS incidents and then you say "that is not how it is, but they left because of ISIS"

I think OPs point is that 3rd world countries are GOAT as in there are little to no regulations. You can get away with fooking around a little more and no one cares. No Karen's.

All true and valid points but it gets old fairly quick.


Not fun getting shaken down by cops who are usually the most dangerous and the ones to look out for. Even in a **** hole like Switzerland.

Reminds me when I went to Panama. They have school buses with flames on them where the guy drives around like a maniac and another person is hanging on to the bus leaning out of the door in traffic. Coca cola offered everywhere for dirt cheap. Big titty prostitutes offering themselves to you. Take a taxi to the airport in the morning and the driver is wired on coca cola and will break every traffic law to get to your destination. What a thrill. You just don't get those kind of thrills in pussified safe countries like America.
