Mr. Not Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 i listened to this expat podcaster a lot who he said he was sick to see the americanization of brazil while there. maybe not in lifestyle, but in culture. He was also talking about how adherent the fillipinos were to the covid-19 lockdown, which was also saddening given that the free nature the third world offers is what he sees as the greatest benefit. this sort of thing is going to become increasingly inescapable moving forward i think, especially with social media being so prevalent now, we have a mainstream global culture which is going to be found in any city around the world. I know I'm being pretty general here 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Not Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 It's kind of funny, we have a rapidly diminishing quality of life here in the USA, yet we're still held to the same work/social standards as before for the most part, so we're busting ass just as much, for less. We're going to get the detriments of the first world (4HL) while losing the benefits of it, maybe moving to a developing country as a lifestyle change would be a net positive for all those who could do it. and maybe "developing" countries don't really need all that more development anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Not Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 a flight to brazil is about double of what it was two years ago, pretty pricey, but i have a friend i could visit there just to hang out. plus i want to do some filming there, i've been filming a lot more often as a hobby lately. the only issue is you're required to be vaxxed to travel to brazil by flight.. which i am, of course 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I'm being pretty general here I saw it a decade ago on what was my last visit to the European mainland. All my favorite cities (Munich, Florence, Barcelona...) no longer had the charm they once offered. And everyone looked the same...like an ad for the GAP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invisible airwave Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 The lengths I'll go to for a seasonal Cuban Char when my closest Haibit Burger location doesn't have it and an area I went to yesterday that previously had it doesn't anymore.
