Vlorรซ

Albania

I'm with my gf, Vlore is safe city. Tons of Italians here, Albanian people are great. Food is cheap, you can find great pizza here But In season from June to August it's overpriced. In September prices is 3x times lower.

Small, comfortable, and green city! Beautiful mountains around, clean air. 1 hour by bus to the sea or 2 hours by bus to the great mountains Perfect place to work on weekdays and spend weekends in the sea or mountains. People said that it can be very hot in summer

A very leisurely city with a beautiful walking street in the center. Here you feel very comfortable, you can reach any place on foot. Belgrade can be reached by high-speed train in 40 minutes. Quite a lot of delicious restaurants despite the size of the city. There are many wineries in the neighboring village

Really an overpriced and overcrowded city. I'd spend here 1-week max to see the main sights. The food is great. Transport is awful, including taxis.

Hikkaduwa

Sri Lanka

It was my second time in Sri Lanka and it's a great experience for surfing and spending vacation, but an awful experience for a remote worker. Every day you can expect that the electricity will be turned off for 2-6 hours. People on the beach are very aggressive and try to squeeze all the money out of you. The service is terrible - the quality can change every time, sometimes you can wait for 2 hours for food. I strongly advise you to come and spend a week surfing, go to the center of the island for another week and visit the old towns. And leave

I can recommend to try Georgian food and amber wine, you won't be able to find something similar in the world. Batumi is the city near the sea and I really like Old Batumi area. But new Batumi is full of constructions and noise

Da Nang is a big city near the sea and mountains. I think it's the best city for middle terms staying in Vietnam. Huge European community, clean and long beach, nice infrastructure. A lot of place around to visit by bike

    Overall, highly recommnded for the fall/spring. Great weather, food, wines and hikes. There are really nice coffeshops (currently writing from one, "The coffee place"). Internet is Ok, but check the accommodation before. Right now there is a lot of anti-sentiment for Russia, so consider that if you're from there.

    Wasn't a huge fan of Mui Ne. Looks like most of the place is catering to Russian midrange tourists. The sand dunes are pretty cool, make sure to visit them, but wear covering clothes in order to not get badly sunburned.

    Stayed here for a month. It reminds me of a less-developed Bangkok. Although there are a lot of high-rise buildings being built at the moment. Very cheap place compared to lots of places in Asia however it's one of the most expensive places in Vietnam. I wouldn't stay here long term, good for a month but was ready to move on. Pros: - Cheap city - Has lots of bars and restaurants - Has some good day trips and activities - Safe - Very cheap Ubers Cons: - Can be extremely hot during the day which

    Da Lat is not a great place. I came here for fresh air (after 1 year in Chiang Mai) but unfortunately that is an illusion. They are burning in the mountains and you can see the smoke going up to the sky. And in the city it is not much better, the air is very much polluted there as well. I tried many restaurants but mostly the food is not very good and the service is depressingly bad. Combine that with the rubbish you see everywhere (especially around the center) and Da Lat makes not a happy pl

    The most vietnamese city in Vietnam. The Old Quarter and West Lake are the highlights. If you come, try the egg coffee. Be mindful Vietnam has cracked down on visas, and it is not as friendly to foreigners. I was able to relax after I received a 5-year spousal visa.

    My best place to work in LONELINESS(that's an important remark) ever! Just 300 meters from the main street โ€“ you will find secluded guesthouses and small local resorts, which are completely quiet and peaceful. Fast internet. And almost nothing to do :) which is prefect to finish important projects. Highly recommended for that purpose. No one will distract you from your task. That's quite cool.

    Unspectacular. I spent 28 days in Da Nang. There are some positives, but let's start with the negatives. Da Nang is the 7th city I've lived in Vietnam, I've lived in over 100 cities for a month or longer. Prior to this trip, I had Vietnam ranked in my top 5 countries and was hoping that trend to continue (been coming here since 2019), but alas, no. Super disappointing. Even though it's same size as Vientiane, Laos (1m) it feels like a big city, kinda. I mean, there's not much traffic, but there

    The people are open, warm and enthusiastic with travelers. Service is brilliant (generally) - much better then Europe.

This is NOT BORAT land - Almaty is 2.7 million people.

    Pros: Safe, beautiful views, loads of nice little beach towns a taxi ride away. Native cuisine is delicious, maybe the best value restaurants in Europe. 8 months of pleasant weather. Old town is pretty charming. Local fruits are excellent and inexpensive. 1 Euro taxi rides. Georgians are generally warm. English ability among youth is good for FSU. A decent hipster coffee/bar/cafe/coworking scene is emerging from the Ru/Bel/Ukr exile community. The boardwalk on the coast is long and excellent -
