[Niall Ferguson]

Just booked Croatia, a week later than I'd originally intended. 

 

Now going to Ultra Festival...More expensive all in that Beefa, but beefa rave tix will obviously ramp that price up.

[Gunner]

going Egypt on Saturday

 

Staying in sharm

 

Hoping to go Cairo or Luxor at least.

 

 

Looking for a neat small manbag or messenger bag for money, phone etc when out and about travelling. Not expensive. Any recommendations ????

Let me know what its saying. I was considering Sharm El sheikh. But looks like its Tunisia or Agadiir for now. Anyone done tunisia? The beach is looking calm. But I was told if you don't speak french or Arabic then its peak

[Mame Biram Diouf]

[Woodpecker]

Meh

Brits are quite similar in character when abroad. Not rude though and very less likely racist.

It's always going to be impossible to avoid both parties where there is sun in abundance. Unless it's south America.

just want to go there chill, nice beach and loads of cultural stuff.

Trip advisor = confused.com . Seems you just have to go out and see for your self.

[O Fenomeno]

Never read other people's reviews and base your choice on that.

Go and see it for yourself

[Supermalt]

True, but you cant ignore common denominators

Would never use comments and reviews from trip advisor to determine if I go somewhere on holiday or not

[Supermalt]

Where have you gone that reviews got it wrong?

[local]

yh but ur a bit of an oddball aint u porch

 

i can see the point that u shouldn't let a bad review get in the way of goin somewhere u want to go

 

but when it come's down to comparing potential places, especially when they're all jus standard beach resorts, u'd be stupid not to take advantage of all the information out there

[O Fenomeno]

Local I am not talking about prices and places to go

I am talking about in terms of if someone leaves something negative it should not hinder you from attending that country

I am a true believer of having to see things for my own eyes.

[Afroman]

Where have you gone that reviews got it wrong?

when I went to Malta first time. I was told to avoid one particular hotel. Review said it was 3 star rather than 4 and food was a disaster , same menu everyday, too many oldies etc

None of this was true apart from the star rating.

Obviously you will look for patterns. But you do get alot of people with petty complaints on there

if 1 review puts u off an entire country then ur a bit silly yh

 

they were talkin specifically about 1 beach resort in eygpt, a clone of thousands of other similar places in the world

 

obviously everyone has their own experiences and preferences but use ur brain n tripadvisor smashes it

[macz]

anyone bought a property abroad and rented it out? is it a long process?

[local]

anyone bought a property abroad and rented it out? is it a long process?

 

depends on the country

 

where u lookin?

 

my dad's lookin at south of france for mine n his next investment

 

euro makin places dirt cheap atm

 

we're both in over our heads tho

 

i'm tryna say we should be lookin further east, that's where the market's goin

 

dippin over to south east asia will be as standard as poppin to benidorm in a few decades

looking at florida bro

[local]

it's tried n tested so there'll be plenty of info out there

 

renting it out shouldn't be too hard

 

u can take the easy way out n use an agency or advertise it urself on various places, u'll need a cleaner n some sort of key system

 

there's always a middle ground as well like find urself a guy with properties out there already, maybe an ex pat n get him to manage it for a small cut

 

gonna take effort tho, everythin does
