i have to scroll like 4 rows to find a german guys, and although i have ''No Cheese'' on my profile they constantly text me with ''hoe gaat het'' and get angry when i dont answer

all these words nd letters and all u had to tell me is that ur neighbourly hate for our beautiful country is purely out of jealousy!
WE'RE the depressed Germany? Sis have u ever walked through Amsterdam? You'll feel like a wonderful free and happy individual because it's so chill and cute everywhere.
regarding the grindr part, just remember that we were the first country to legalize gay marriage in 2001 yet germany has only recently passed their first bill regarding gay marriage
and it's 2016
welp

Yeah I agree with those saying that Croatia is stunning. It's worth taking a ferry to Dubrovnik while in Venice, or visit the peninsula of Istria.

Watch out for the poverty in Spain.
I went to Barcelona, the rich part of Spain because of the tourists spending money there. I was like "These metro tickets are cheap, half price of the other cities." and they are like "It's steep!".
In the supermarkets they lock valuable items like alcohol, salmon, toothpaste, chocolate,... in plastic boxes. Their youth earn 400 euro per month, while the minimum wage in my country is 1600 euro per month (before tax).
The views, the architecture, the history,... is good in Barcelona.
Europe is the Continent on the other side of the (English) Channel, isn't it?

Ch, wait a moment.
"In the supermarkets they lock valuable items like alcohol, salmon, toothpaste, chocolate,... in plastic boxes."
I've never seen this? It's just like this:
And "watch out for the poverty"? Literally what

This whole post is just.
Barcelona is not the rich part of Spain. It's not even the most modern city in Spain.
The youth earn 400 euro per month because they're working part time while studying at uni. I'm sure a part time job in your country is not paid 1600 but whatever you say lmao.
The only thing I've seen locked in boxes is the expensive alcohol, just like in any other supermarket in the world. Sis, where do you live?
Also I just looked at the metro ticket fares and it's 2,15€ for a journey while in other European cities like Paris and Rome is so much cheaper (1,70€, 1,50€). I don't know what other European cities you mean, but yeah it is quite expensive compared to the European capitals (sans London which is expensive as ****).

Some of you have delusional facts about Spain.
Madrid is underrated and should be visited! Dynamic and beautiful city. Barcelona is great too.
Germany can be boring, but Munich should be visited imo, not Frankfurt.
Id go on the first trip too.

Must be in the wrong hood in Barcelona (2015), seeing how the locals actually live instead of only doing the touristic quarters. There are less plastic boxes in the supermarket on La Rambla.

A T10 costs only €9.95 and will save you the trouble of buying individual tickets for each journey as well as saving you money. A normal single journey ticket costs you €2.15 so with a T10 you save €11.55 for 10 journeys.

Less than 1 euro per journey. Meaning that I could spend 2 or 3 euro per day.
You are right that Paris isn't that expensive.
- London: tube journey starts at 3 euro, daily cap starts at 8 euro
- Cologne: 2.8 euro, 4 journey ticket is still 2.7 euro per journey, day ticket 8.5 euro
- Hamburg: 3.2 euro, day ticket off peak is still 6.2 euro, day ticket peak 7.6 euro
- Amsterdam: 3 euro, but you could get a chip card and pay a cheaper rate depending on the distance travelled
