You either love her or hate her… ik zal in ieder geval niet ontkennen dat ik haar een beetje iconisch vind 😭💅 (ik ben gay, maar ze heeft wel iets)
I was a bit too young to experience the peak of Tokio Hotel’s popularity, so I’m curious were they really as huge as people say? Any stories that really capture how big they were?
Hey everyone,
I’m travelling to Rio and, as a budget traveller, I was wondering about the idea of sleeping outside near the beach for one night to save money.
I would in a very quiet spot, away from crowds and example, a place that feels protected and not exposed (so that I’m safer). I am a tourist without much money, is it also dangerous if I look for a place secluded from people? On a hill or rocks maybe?

For example staring very long at people to see when they notice. Other times I pretend to understand a conversation in a language I don’t speak, or I randomly mumble something in a foreign language just to see people’s reactions. I’m just soo bored after sitting on a bus for 6 hours. Does anyone else do this? Haha
Just saw a few rats in my hostel room 😳. I was really scared at first, but maybe i do exaggerate because i am not used to it. Is this normal in certain countries? Or is it a bad sign?
I’m travelling and some days I just don’t feel like showering, even if I know I probably smell a little bit.
A girl in my dorm told me there was a smell coming from my bed area and called me out for it.
My first reaction was: isn’t my personal hygiene my own responsibility? If I’m okay with smelling a bit, why should strangers get a say in it? That’s rude
So what’s the actual hostel etiquette here? Is it considered rude to not shower when you know you smell, or is it just part of sharing a dorm with random travellers?
You paid €15 to sleep in a room with 10 strangers, not booked a luxury silent retreat.
Yes, I packed my bag. Yes, I had a bus to catch. No, I’m not going to apologize for existing because you thought a dorm room would be a private bedroom, right??
Hi! I’m visiting Rome and I have seen many Gypsies, are there any gypsy areas in Rome that are interesting to walk through? The culture looks really cool and unique
I tried to talk to the person next to me during the whole ride (travelling is about meeting new people 😁). At first he responded but didn’t show much interest and after a while he literally started to ignore me, why does this always happen? It happened many times
I had a discussion with someone on my bus today. I was watching TikToks on my phone without headphones and she asked me to stop. Hell no!
I understand if it was during the night, but it was daytime. Also FlixBus is public transport, not a library. There were already people talking etc.
I feel like people nowadays expect complete silence everywhere. How would you react if you were me?

Am I the only one who thinks it’s REALLY rude when you say ‘hi’ after entering a hostel dorm and someone just completely ignores you?
Last night I had an argument with a girl in my hostel because I was watching TikToks without headphones. She got upset and told me it was really inconsiderate. I always do it and I don’t have headphones. It’s 2026, tiktok exists
Hi! I’m visiting Genoa and I’ve noticed there are a lot of street prostitutes in the city centre, even during the day. I’ve travelled a lot around Europe, but I haven’t seen it this openly very often (usually in some area’s outside of the centre)
No hate, I’m from Amsterdam, so I’m used to prostitution. I’m just curious. I also noticed the police don’t seem to intervene. Is there a reason for this?
