I'm in Mexico right now, which many consider a third world country and I'm having a fukking blast. Lets not put labels on countries we know nothing about friends

Couldn't agree more. I spent 2 years traveling around Mexico during college and only found trouble when I went and looked for it. I would highly recommend visiting Oaxaca, Guadalajara and Puebla if you get the chance.

What exactly does Italy produce...?

I am talking resources that people need e.g oil, minerals, natural gas, produce, livestock and etc...

In fact, what the hell does Europe produce in terms of natural resources...I know Russia got oil...

Italy produces botched plastic surgeries and oompa loompas.

Sure, I'm sure I could have a blast visiting Egypt. But it's still a sh!tty country. The two aren't mutually exclusive.

I


I'm mixed, African and European. So of course it's different, but it's just too easy to say stuff like that which makes no sense and is somewhat disrespectful of actual third world countries were the suffering is real. You sound level headed so I'll just say maybe try not to use certain words lightly, people from third world countries are DYING every fukking day trying to get to Italy. (see: Lampedusa).

And even with that said, and having lived there one year and a half, I personally find it kind of offensive that you would say "that place sucks", even without being Italian, because I had a great time while being there and they showed me nothing but love.

Anyway, where have you been, how long did you stay? How did you come to the conclusion that Italy sucks?

Why are you no longer living in Italy?

I was traveling along the Mediterranean - Pisa, Florence, Rome, Naples. The latter one of the dirtiest cities I have visited.

Italy sucks for many reasons but I will give you one example; If I go to a major city and I tell the taxi driver to take me to the center/middle of everything and the driver takes me to a large train station - then we have a problem. And it only got worst from there. Unless you are an archeology/history buff or not a spoiled American type, it's just a sh1tty country for the most part.

I visited all those cities and had a fukking blast. I like visiting countries that are aesthetically and culturally different from the US or other Anglo countries. Maybe you should have visited Germany or France if you wanted to be in a place that is almost a carbon copy of the US.

I really don't want to visit a place that looks and feels just like the US except for the language. Mediterranean countries have a 'feel' of their own and I loved that.

Let me give an example of something I found so refreshing in Rome. It was right outside of the Vatican. It was around 9am and people were just chilling. Drinking coffee(in real cups) in cafes and socializing before work. I didn't see people running around in Starbucks paper cups stressed out commuting to work. its as if the people dont live to work. I just saw people enjoying life.

At night, I saw families not just nuclear families, but extended families, just chilling out in resturants enjoying each others company on a week night. When I explained to them how foreign that is in the US, they gave me :what: look.

They are way different than we are in respect to what they value in life.

I agree with this...I found germany boring becuse it was too similar to the US except a lot cleaner. Italy was nice cause it had that old world feel. Not as modernized as the US and other western european countries like Germany or England. I like that kinda shyt. Its def grimier overall than the countries I mentioned but third world? I grew up in second world and it aint even close to that much less third world :russ:. Americans really got no clue what the world is like to even joke about Italy being third world
