Hi everyone!
Tomorrow I’ll be landing at Heatrow with my family (we are 4) and we were thinking of taking an Uber to reach our hotel in central London.
We have 1 small carry-on each (8 kg max), 1 small backpack each and just 1 hold luggage (so a total of 5 suitcases).
I was wondering whether I should book an Uber X or an Uber XL.
Thank you so much!
Hi!
So tomorrow I’ll be back in London after 12 years of having been there the first time and I’m so excited!
I’m looking for to see again the main attractions but honestly I think I’ll skip the main museums altogether cause I have already seen them.
What are some cool places turists don’t usually go to but that are worth it in your opinion?
Thank you so much!!
Hi everyone.
I’ll be in London next week, and I have some questions regarding the tube.
I’ll be traveling with my family (we are 4).
Can the 4 of us pay our tickets directly at the turnstile using the same card?
Will the 4 tickets count towards the 9£ daily cap quota? Or shall we use different paying methods for the system to recognize we are different people?
Thank you!
Hi!
Me and my family are going to be in London next week.
We’ll stay between Victoria Station and Pimlico and we were looking for some food recs in central London, ideally near the main attractions.
Our budget would be around 30£ x person (per meal), so nothing excessively fancy but we’re fine with eating in some nice restaurants!
My parents don’t like ethnic food that much so we’ll probably avoid those kind of restaurants unfortunately.
Let me know!! Thanks a lot.
Or should I just reach out to someone and buy them in person?
Any help is appreciated, I don’t want to get scammed.
Thank you.
Ciao a tutti.
Sono uno studente di 20 anni e nell’autunno 2025 ho lasciato la mia precedente facoltà universitaria (un ramo dell’ingegneria, frequentata in una delle università più blasonate d’Italia).
Fondamentale non mi sono trovato molto a mio agio con le materie tecniche e ho capito che non avrei mai voluto fare l’ingegnere di mestiere.
In questi mesi ho quindi riflettuto molto (fino allo sfinimento) su che facoltà intraprendere, e sono arrivato alla conclusione che il mio futuro lavoro dovrebbe cercare di essere allineato ai miei interessi (di cui parlerò tra poco) il più possibile ed essere qualcosa che abbia un qualche tipo di risvolto sociale per qualcuno/qualcosa.
Alle superiori ho frequentato il Liceo Classico, mi sono diplomato con lode e i miei interessi sono sempre stati molto variegati: storia, geografia, astronomia, politica, tutto l’ambito delle scienze naturali, cronaca nera, aerei…potrei continuare.
Chiaramente mi rendo conto che sia impensabile trovare un lavoro, per così dire, canonico, che includa tutti questi argomenti, ed è per questo motivo che ho pensato a quanto sarebbe figo fare il divulgatore scientifico, oppure partecipare alla creazione di documentari, perché mi permetterebbe di spaziare tra molti dei miei interessi e trasmettere le mie passioni agli altri.
Problema è che non ho assolutamente IDEA di quale potrebbe essere un percorso plausibile per entrare in quell’ambito, cosa mi converrebbe studiare all’università etc…
Se doveste consigliarmi un corso di laurea in modo tale da avere un piano B se il piano A non dovesse funzionare, purché sia un minimo connesso ai miei interessi, verso quale mi indirizzereste?
Aggiungo che parlo molto bene l’inglese e in futuro mi piacerebbe vivere per un periodo all’estero, idealmente negli USA (tralasciando la situazione dei visti, attualmente non proprio rosea).
Grazie mille a chi risponderà.
I actually started enjoying the quest once Ronova finally entered the picture.
It was cool to finally get some information about Paimon’s origins, but overall, the quest was honestly pretty boring from a gameplay perspective.
Act 1 was painfully slow, and basically all of Act 2 took place in the theater and consisted of the same repetitive, tedious gameplay for over three hours.
Overall I’d rate it a 6.5/10.
Ciao a tutti.

Hi everyone,
I’m a 20 years old male from Europe and I’m trying to get a sense of what I’d like my career to look like.
For several years now I’ve had this big passion for true crime/missing people cases and investigating crimes in general.
The immediate path would be to get into LE, problem is I’m kind of a citizen of the world and entering into LE would basically condemn me to live in my country forever (I would like to leave the possibility to emigrate open, specifically to the US).
Another possibility would be to get a Law degree and try to become a prosecutor/judge, but that would pin me down in my home country nonetheless.
Have y’all got any idea on what could I do to combine my dream job and my personal aspirations?
Are there any internatioal security agencies I could look into? The only ones I can think of are Europol and Interpol, but they rarely personally investigate crimes from my understanding.
For context, what I think I’d love more about investigating is hearing the suspects, collecting evidence and connecting the dots, researching…less the more scientific part like forensic genetics, forensic medicine, etc.
Any advice is greatly appreciated!!
Thank you so much.
Ciao a tutti,
Dopo molti dubbi in merito a che facoltà scegliere, alla fine, a pochi giorni dalla scadenza per l’iscrizione al semestre filtro di medicina, ho deciso di iscrivermi.
Ora, ho intenzione di prenderla un po’ come esperimento: iniziare a studiare, frequentare le lezioni del semestre e capire se potrebbe fare per me.
Per contesto ho fatto il Liceo Classico e ho alle spalle 1 anno di ingegneria, lasciata perché ho mal sopportato le materie eccessivamente tecniche (che comunque ero riuscito a passare, anche con voti abbastanza alti, ma non credo di essere in grado di laurearmi in una cosa che non mi piace).
Come piano B, qualora entro Settembre dovessi rendermi conto che non mi vedo a fare il medico, sto pensando a Economia.
Unico problema è che io aborro il mondo della finanza e, più in generale, qualunque lavoro che consista nel stare in un cubicolo senza dare alcun contributo personale, per questo sto considerando medicina, perché vorrei fare un lavoro a contatto con il pubblico e che mi faccia sentire di star aiutando qualcuno.
Tanta gente mi ha detto che con Economia si possono fare tante cose fuori dall’ambito più classico della consulenza/finanza.
Qualcuno che conosce il settore può darmi qualche consiglio? Potrebbe fare al caso mio secondo voi visto il mio temperamento?
Aggiungo che me la cavo in matematica, ma nemmeno la amo, quindi fare percorsi che richiedono, ad esempio, un PhD in economia, lo vedo molto remoto, perché so che a quei livelli economia diventa sostanzialmente matematica pura.
Grazie mille a chi risponderà.
Ciao a tutti,
Da che ho memoria la mia materia preferita è sempre stata la storia.
Purtroppo non sono nato con un appartamento intestato, perciò il lavoro dovrà servirmi per mantenermi in futuro.
Qualcuno che si è laureato in Storia potrebbe dirmi cosa fa adesso? Lo rifareste?
Fare la carriera accademica in ambito storico quanto è difficile? Da quello che ho capito mentre per le materie STEM ci sono molte più cattedre, per le materie umanistiche c’è una competizione infinita perché fondamentalmente le cattedre sono poche.
Grazie a chi risponderà.

Hi everyone, I’ll give you a bit of a summary of what these past months were like for me so you can better understand what I’m going through.
Sorry if this might be long and boring, I really don’t know who to talk to anymore.
So in summer 2024 I graduated High School: I was the best student in my year, received lots of compliments from the faculty, and I was generally very happy about my time at school.
One thing I want to clarify is that throughout high school I never studied just to get shit done or to get good marks, instead I always found something interesting in the subjects I was studying and I was generally very passionate about almost everything (both STEM and humanities).
After graduating I moved to a very big city in my country (I come from a middle sized city) to study building engineering.
The first year was like one of the happiest moments of my life: I had wanted to experience living away from home in a more stimulating environment for a long time and I was lucky enough to find very nice people that made me feel like I was at home.
Throughout the course of the first year of college I realized engineering wasn’t really for me.
I was ok with maths and physics, but I felt like the subjects were too technical and had little to no space for me to express myself, so I decided to transfer to Architecture (same city, same college, got admitted directly to 2nd year cause most of the exams I had passed were in common).
Earlier this fall (2025) I started my 2nd year of uni attending architecture.
Initially all was fine, then it all went downhill:
on one hand, there were the constant group projects, physical models, and other hands-on assignments that cost a fortune to make, only for the professors to barely even look at them.
On top of that, I had an AWFUL experience with two incredibly unpleasant teammates for a group project, who gave me panic attacks on multiple occasions.
In the end, I decided to move back home to take some time to recover and leave architecture as well, especially after realizing that I didn’t actually want to do it as a career.
From that moment onwards, so basically from December 2025 to this moment, I started overthinking everything, obsessing day and night about what kind of future I wanted, what degree I should pursue to get there, and so on, to the point where I honestly think I had some kind of very serious mental breakdown.
It didn’t help coming back home just to realize my college time in another place was over.
Between the degrees I’ve been considering, there’s also medicine.
Not because I’ve always had a strong passion for it or because becoming a doctor was ever some childhood dream of mine, it actually wasn’t.
However, recently I’ve become really interested in neuroscience, and I started thinking, “You know what? Maybe becoming a psychiatrist wouldn’t be such a bad path.” (Also, I should mention I hate philosophy with a passion, so psychology isn’t really a fit for me).
It could actually be a really meaningful and interesting career (I really want to do something that benefits people somehow).
What also attracts me is the possibility of doing a PhD or something: the idea of contributing to scientific discoveries, traveling around the world, and collaborating with researchers from different countries is something that genuinely excites me.
A few days ago, in early August, the deadline to register for the medical school entrance process was coming up (the actual exam will be in December), and I decided to apply because I didn’t want to completely close that door. I wanted to at least give myself the chance to try.
I thought I would feel relieved and more at peace after making that decision, but only about half an hour after submitting my application, I had a really intense panic attack.
Luckily, my mom was there with me, because it felt like all the anxiety, stress, and fears I had been building up over the past few months suddenly hit me all at once, right when I had finally made a decision.
I feel like I’ve lost my spark, my passion for studying, everything that made me a high achieving person before in my life.
I am terrified of making another mistake in regard to my college decision and I really don’t want to disappoint my parents anymore.
I don’t know what to do, my days are all the same and I try so hard to keep my chin up but something it’s just so fricking hard.

Hi everyone,
I’m 20, from Europe, and I need to decide what to study in college.
A few months ago I dropped out of architecture because it just wasn’t the right fit, and ever since then I’ve been stuck overthinking what I actually want to do with my life.
I know the extremes of the career I’d want to have.
I’d like to do something where I actually have an impact instead of feeling like just another employee in a huge organization.
I’d also like a career with solid growth and good earning potential.
I’m not trying to become insanely rich (I don’t care about yachts or private jets) but I’d like to be able to buy a house one day and comfortably support a family.
One of the degrees I’m considering is economics.
In my country it’s a broad major that includes economics, finance, and accounting.
A lot of people recommend it if you don’t have a clear career goal because it’s so flexible and can lead to jobs in a lot of different industries.
The only thing that worries me is ending up in a job that’s basically just spreadsheets all day and leaving the office at 7 p.m. every night.
That doesn’t sound appealing to me at all.
There’s another factor too, even though I know it probably shouldn’t drive my decision. I currently live in a city that I absolutely hate. An economics bachelor’s here only takes three years, which means I could move somewhere else for grad school afterward.
The other degrees I’m considering are much longer integrated programs, so I’d most likely stay here until I graduate and then go straight into the workforce.
My question is: what are some interesting or less conventional careers you can get into with an economics degree?
For some extra context, I’m ok at math, but I don’t love it enough to spend all day working with numbers.
My biggest strengths are probably writing, public speaking, and languages.
Thank you.
It feels like higher education has become almost entirely career-oriented. Instead of being places where people can pursue knowledge, develop intellectually, and study subjects they’re genuinely passionate about, universities are increasingly seen as job-training programs.
My favorite subject has always been history, along with geography. I’d love to study them in college, but the reality is that if I wanted to make a career directly out of those degrees, my options would mostly be limited to academia, teaching, or journalism.
Outside of those fields, I’d often be competing with people who have degrees in law, economics, or other disciplines that employers tend to value more.
It’s so frustrating: I’m going to choose a more employable degree because I’m not a nepo-baby and I need to work to live.
Subjects without a clear, direct career path are often dismissed as “useless,” no matter how intellectually valuable they are.
Even within STEM, research-oriented fields often struggle for funding, while industries that generate the biggest profits—finance, big tech, consulting, and similar fields—receive the most attention and investment.
I understand why the job market works this way, but I still think we’ve lost something important. Education shouldn’t be valuable only if it maximizes your earning potential.
Hi everyone,
I love traveling and I was wondering whether I could turn this passion into a career.
I’m curious about jobs in the travel industry that aren’t just about being a travel agent or planning vacations for people.
I’m thinking more broadly: airlines, airports, hospitality, luxury travel, aviation, etc.
I’m looking for careers that:
- require a university degree or specialized skills;
- pay well;
- involve interacting with clients, partners, airlines, hotels, or other companies;
- ideally involve some travel, whether that’s
visiting properties, attending meetings, managing operations, or working internationally.
I’m not necessarily interested in jobs focused on organizing vacations for individual travelers.
I’m more curious about the business side of the travel industry.
What careers would you recommend looking into?
For context I’m in Europe, and jobs here typically pay way less compared to NA, so keep in mind that.
Thank you!
Hi everyone,
I’m sorry if this feels in anyway stupid in comparison to some serious issues people unfortunately have on this sub, but I feel very alone and I have no one else to talk to.
About eight months ago I moved back to my hometown after spending around a year and a half living somewhere else for college.
I never realized how much that move had changed me until I came back.
Throughout all high school I always dreamed of the moment I would have finally be able to move out of my home town and live in a bigger city.
In September 2024 this dream finally came true, and let me tell you, the following months were the best of my life.
First of all the city was awesome: very big, loads of different people from all around the world, many things to do everyday, very lively at night, made good friends, basically everything I wished for from my college experience.
Even the simplest things, like going to the supermarket at 4 am after a night out, felt exciting because they were mine.
Some months ago I realized that what I was studying wasn’t really what I wanted to do as a job: when I realized that changing major was the wiser thing to do in that situation, I basically knew that would have meant going back to my hometown to complete my studies.
My parents were pretty clear: I am going to complete college at home.
Don’t get me wrong, changing majors was my choice and my parents made great sacrifices supporting my life in another city, but I feel like they didn’t really take into account how important living in a place you feel like you belong to is when you’re young.
The hardest part is that one of the degree programs I’m seriously considering would mean staying here for several more years (6 years, which are a LOT).
Every time I think about it, I get this heavy feeling in my stomach.
I’ve thought about choosing a three-year undergraduate degree so I could move abroad for grad school afterward (I think my parents would probably be okay with that by then).
The problem is, I don’t want to pick a degree just because it’s shorter than the others and end up with a qualification in a field I don’t actually care about.
I know choosing a career based on a city would be a mistake, and I don’t want to make such an important decision for the wrong reasons.
But at the same time, I can’t ignore how much my surroundings affect my motivation, my mood, and my excitement about life.
I seriously think I’ll be totally depressed these years living at home, and I’ll probably look back and think I’ve wasted the best years of my youth.
I don’t know what to do…I hate myself for not choosing the right major back when I had the possibility to go to college away from home.
Hi everyone,
I’m trying to figure out what to major in:
I’ve been obsessed with true crime, unsolved disappearances, and criminal investigations for years. If I could pick any job in the world, I’d probably become a detective.
The problem is that in my country there isn’t really a career that’s equivalent to what people usually picture when they think of a detective.
The only real way to investigate crimes is either to join law enforcement (which I’ve ruled out because I don’t really like the philosophy and culture of police here) or become a prosecutor.
The thing is, becoming a prosecutor means getting a law degree and then passing an extremely competitive national exam.
I’ve read a fair amount of law textbooks, and while I do find it interesting, I don’t think it’s what actually draws me to this field.
What I love is the investigative side: figuring out what happened, connecting the dots, interviewing people, analyzing evidence, and getting to the truth.
I’m much less interested in the legal side of things, like criminal procedure, sentencing, or arguing cases in court.
What worries me is that if I didn’t make it through the prosecutor exam, I’d be left with a law degree that isn’t very transferable internationally, and in my country the legal job market is already pretty saturated.
Lately I’ve also been considering medical school with the goal of specializing in psychiatry.
I’m genuinely fascinated by the human mind, and I feel like psychiatry could still let me work in a field that’s connected to crime and investigations, even if it’s in a much more indirect way.
Point is most of the other subjects feel pretty indifferent to me and I’m afraid I’d end up hating the coursework.
I’m honestly feeling pretty stuck.
Has anyone else been in a similar position? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
