I got my whole trip planned out. As soon as I get 21 I am going to hopefully have enough money saved up so that I will get to go to Europe. Im only 15 now so that leaves me with enough time to save. But I was thinking who better to ask about Europe than people who actually live there. So I have some questions that I want to know to see if going to Europe is really worth it.
- What areas should I avoid?
- Are there people who are racists against Black people.
- Are there pedophiles there or robbers
- Is it generally safe?
- How much of the population speaks English approximately.
Theres no doubt in my mind that im going to go there if its safe and all, but im not sure if I should go by myself that may be another issue also.
-
I can recommend come to Denmark as I live there, its quite peacefull with not many immigrant people mostly of the population is danish people. There is not much crime in Denmark but in Copenhagen there is some riots about some random shit and people shooting each other for some wierd reasons, its mostly because of gangs vs Rockers.

What areas should I avoid?
- Well, you should avoid the same kind of areas you are avoiding in US, so ghettos mostly.
Are there people who are racists against Black people.
- Well racism is everywhere you go, can't avoid that. Although there are areas where people are generally more tolerance then on the other areas. For example if you would come to Estonia then Tallinn isn't as racist as the town Tartu (where a lot of skinheads are).
Are there pedophiles there or robbers
- Well yes, the other thing is how many there are, that varies from country to country, for example I bet that there are less robbers in Norway then there are in Estonia (by %).
Is it generally safe?
- Generally I would say it is safe, unless you want to pick a fight for yourself.
How much of the population speaks English approximately.
- Well that also varies from country to country. With English you can get all you want freely in UK Ireland, The Netherlands, Norway, Iceland, Sweden, Finland, Denmark as in those countries English is spoken by the most of the people. Well as I hitchhiked like 2 years ago I came to the understanding that in Eastern Europe still most of the people understand Russian. Also that Germans say to the question: Do you speak English? - "Only a little bit" but in practice they speak English fluently.
-
You gotta remember Europe is a continent, not a little city...
Your questions are kinda stupid, except for the last one.
-
Just come to Sweden, we've got the girls and that's all you need to know..
-
I'd go to London or something, but Sweden is ok too. :P
-
london is a great city, have been there,
and the questions and answer for netherlands:
-What areas should I avoid?
*drugsshop
-Are there people who are racists against Black people.
*yes, but every country got them, but netherlands are really free in racisme,
not much of it
-Are there pedophiles there or robbers
*like every country got that
-Is it generally safe?
*yes
-How much of the population speaks English approximately.
ages: 16+, i think 75% or more speaks english
-
- What areas should I avoid?
hm... idk.....
- Are there people who are racists against Black people.
Hmm... in Estonia there are Skinheads or smthing... but dont worry :hurray:
- Are there pedophiles there or robbers
Hmm... idk about pedophiles but yes bit robbers :cry:
Hmm.. yes i recomend you Estonia
- How much of the population speaks English approximately.
Much ppl... i think :D
[/list]
yeh Estonian language is dificult but... well i recomend it :D
-
What can you avoid?
Avoid places with high living apartments, mostly in Middle and East Europe those are the ghettos with a lot of crime, why? Because I live there and know how it is if ppl. get robbed and so on.
Which country should you avoid | Why?
Big citys of Poland like : Warsaw, Wroclaw (no clue how it is in english), Lodz, Opole and so on, as I think the beautiful Poland is at its countryside and so on.
Why? Poland has a LOT of Hooligangangs which are orientated racistly - Means, if I would be a black and walk through Poland...You'd get stupid looks and often a broken nose and a stolen wallet. THIS DOESNT MEAN that Poland is a shitty country - Not at all, but IF I would be black, I'd avoid the bigger citys with the high livingblocks.
Germany: Hamburg, Berlin, Frankfurt, Cologne, Dusseldorf : All nice cities! Not like in Poland - There are NO Hooligangangs, BUT gangs of immigrants, I think, if they see a black they wouldnt do nothing, because your like one of them.
Cities: Hamburg - I'd visit the harbour and so on and the REEPERBAHN...its the redlight millieu^^ Famous for hamburg, a lot of bars, clubs, sexshops and so on! Very nice. But dangerous too, but not for a black.
In general the bigger citys in East Europe are a bit more dangerous then the countryside.
Berlin: Mostly like in Hamburg, but East-Berlin is a bit more dangerous for example parts like Marzahn are FULL of skinheads/nazis, I'd be scared there.
Frankfurt is pretty neutral, they have immigrantgangs, which wont do shit to you.
Dusseldorf too.

No its not i know Europe is a country. Im not going to only one country so Im basically touring the continent.
But im saving like a thousand a year so i might have about 6 grand by the time i get there and im gonna put most of it with prepaid creidit cards.
-
So if you are going on tour through the Europe, generally I cannot see any problem which can happen. ;)
-
No its not i know Europe is a country.
win...
But cmon, you're asking if there's criminals and racists in europe...
ofcourse there's criminals and racists in europe, so is there in africa, and asia too. :poke:
-
As ChaNce said, you should avoid Poland. We have a lot of racists here :(
-
o ok cool
-
Spain!!!
Spain is a very goood place, there is very little racist. I specifically live in canary islands, its full of tourists. One of the best swimming pools and beaches here! Spain is good at sports, beachs, relax and girls. ie: Ibiza, the worlds best party place. but its very expensive its like 50 € for entrance ticket in a nightclub...
Must come!
-
You should first see Turkey, a place connects Europe to Asia.
-
turkey would be the last place i would go to lol
you will need to get a threat at the doctor before you can even enter,
that cant be good :D
all stuff are illegal also,
but if you stay in hotel its a very nice place(at least from what i can see from tourist things)
but racism is everywhere, in my country(netherlands)
you got a lot of muslim racism because of all the trouble they cause here,
avoid a city as Amsterdam, unless you wanna go to the hookers
u should go visit Groningen, in the north
why?
-best centre of all cities in netherlands(and yes they really did won that price)
and as they say here:
er gaat niets boven Groningen! (nothing is better as Groningen it means, exact translation: nothing goes above Groningen)
-
you got a lot of muslim racism because of all the trouble they cause here,
I can sense the racism already..
-
avoid a city as Amsterdam, unless you wanna go to the hookers
You see, that's why you should go to Amsterdam :)
-
I recommend Spain, Greek, Italy and United Kingdom. - These are most popular cities in Europe, they have a lot of history and you are never bored in them, also - Balkan :) you cloud go to ex Yugoslavia, and expecialy if you are black they love black ppls there. But English is bad at those cities(expect UK)
-
but racism is everywhere, in my country(netherlands)
you got a lot of muslim racism because of all the trouble they cause here,
How can you speak by the entire muslim religion, because you had experienced a bad episode with a muslim that aint mean that every muslim in the world is cruel and are only trying to cause problems. Just see me, I am a muslim and an example for other good muslims, I am going in school not having any legal issues just trying to get my road clean while studying. You are just having sterotypes against Muslims and I do not like that as there are some damn good muslim people in our world but as your view is kinda negative I will not go down to your level but only say this.
I'm sorry that you have this view about the muslim people, but if you do not like us please shoot yourself in the head.
-
And what about "your people", are they stealing or are they just gods children ?
People steal for a reason, nobody just steals random stuff for having fun.
-
Sorry to say this, but please get your facts straight before you are b itching about muslim people in Netherlands if thats where you live. People that are stealing to get a blow of the adrenalin is stupid as hell and that thoery I do not belive.
-
So much knowledge in this world that you need to face, where did I accuse you for anything ?
Where i'm lieng ?
And I just checked some statics from Netherlands and to be quite honest, I only found that Duthties or what to call them (sorry), are making more trouble then do not come here and tell me the muslims there are making more troubles.
The thing that got my attention were that you are saying more muslims are making more trouble just because a little area where they make trouble, as I know not all muslims are good but still you do not have to blaim them all.
YOU! started this subject about muslims, and you cannot face the truth facts and I am very sorry for you that you are afraid of seeing the truth in your own eyes, but as allways you refuse to get the true facts right.
-
i dont
and which has nothing to do with your post:
the currently biggest political party of our country the PVV, with as leader Geert Wilders,
who you probably will know,
he is a big anti-muslim guy, and he got the biggest party here, that says enough doesnt it,
and i got muslim friends, seems you keep forgetting
**edit*** all my replies are removed, no im not a racist but for some reason ppl keep thinking im,
yes there are good muslims but enough bad ones too
over and out
-
I will not ruin this topic and therefor I will stop posting about Muslims not just because of your reply but because that I know that you refuse to see what you wrote and I wrote.
And no I do not forget about that you have muslims friends, but as the thing I said earlier that I do not like when people have any judgements and sterotypes against muslims as we are cable of beeing good :), maybe i'm not the best example but we can be good.
-
two things.
one, if you are such a good example, why do you do drugs
two, any more arguing such as above will be punishes. i did not remove Bian's posts, but i suspect they were removed with good reason.

Giac, can you read or trying to be a smart ass ?
I will answer you when you answered me ;).
-
Giac i removed them myself, due big off topic and:
i dont want this, i responded on accusation of me being a racist and all other lies about me,
but i know it isnt good, i will let them think w/e they want of me
i know myself the best:
i dont like muslims, but im not a racist and i also got muslim friends
thats who i am and nothing more
-
Just see me, I am a muslim and an example for other good muslims, I am going in school not having any legal issues just trying to get my road clean while studying.
I'm sorry that you have this view about the muslim people, but if you do not like us please shoot yourself in the head.
you could be legally prosecuted under international laws for this quote here, if he goes ahead and shoots himself in the head, then it could be seen that you provoked the self inflicted wounds, and it could end with a severe punishment.
careful what you say
-
And now you change subject ?. I will not waste my time anymore on this topic and its subject about Muslims. About the law, would you could proof that he really shot himself because I wrote it ?
-
Regardless of WHY he did it (if he did), that is seen as 'egging him on', or encouraging him to do so; which, again, no matter HOW/WHY he does it, you would be liable for his death, unless in a death note or something he specified another reason, but still, you post could have contributed to him doing so.
(All hypothetical btw guys)
-
Yes if you follow USA rules.
-
Yes if you follow USA rules.
As this forum is based in Russia, I assume that we'd have to find out the laws for russia.
I'm not arguing any more, back on topic.
-
I would come to the UK, but not London, atm, there is alot of stabbings here. :(
-
I've been here and there...
Lets say you land in London->Look around in UK for a day or two/After a little tour go to Paris for a day or two ->Berlin(+Potsdam) for a 1-3 days, altho there is a lot more to see there->Fly to Norway, Sweden or Finland,Helsinki and take a ship to Tallinn, all of these countries have some Scandinavian feel to them. And well...i don't really know your resources, time you are gonna spend and so on, the coolest trips are those that you will just go somewhere and see what will happen, only problem might be the housing and no money-planning. Always keep spare for a flight back home.
-
What areas should I avoid?
You should Avoid places like, russia, Poland etc, they are not kind :>
Are there people who are racists against Black people.
Well, in every country you find differend peoples, but yes, in every city.
Are there pedophiles there or robbers
Like the question above, yes.
Is it generally safe?
Well, you always have a risk.
How much of the population speaks English approximately.
Like everyone, like norway, we learn english from we are 8 years old.
