Workers go on strike all the time in other countries re transportation also.

Hotspots: Countries like France, Italy, and Germany experience regular transport walkouts.


Sounds like the previous guy had one legitimate issue, which happens. And didn't book his tickets properly for the other trip. It literally tells you when booking whether or not you're going to need to take a bus to your final destination

didn’t say they didn’t - just saying the Italian trains aren’t the most reliable

France is second most unreliable

As someone who has spent a lot of time in Norway, you couldn’t be more wrong.

Wish I'd lived in this part of Europe. I walked to work, but only did so because my one and a half mile commute could take 45 minutes in traffic.

I have Traveled all over Europe, we could learn a lot from the Europeans.

Clean streets
Sit in a Restaurant or Coffee Shop for as long as you wish
no hangups on sex

Compared to my USA. It is an easy life

Louisiana is a SHITHOLE

It depends on where you go. I saw about the same number of women in hijabs in Italy as I do here in Birmingham. Not many. Countries and areas in Europe are as different as Alabama is to New York.

In the US, obesity is definitely regional. Driving from Colorado to Louisiana, people begin to swell after crossing the Texas state line.

My friend in Boulder doesn’t even own a car.
