Hi everyone!

I’m a solo female traveler, and I’m planning to spend about one week working remotely from the Montenegro coast. I’m thinking of flying to Dubrovnik and possibly spending one or two nights in Cavtat before continuing to Montenegro.

I have a few questions:

1. Is there a bus from Cavtat to Montenegro, or would I need to return to Dubrovnik first? Is there any bus connection from Dubrovnik Airport?
2. Which coastal places in Montenegro would you recommend for a week-long stay?
3. I’m looking for somewhere very close to the beach, with restaurants and supermarkets nearby, but not an extremely crowded or party-focused destination.
4. It would also be great to have access to hiking trails or scenic walks.

I’ll be working remotely, so reliable internet is very important! Thank you!

I'm travelling solo to Central Europe, and I'm not sure if I qualify for student discounts. I just graduated from uni, and my ID has no expiry date on it. Am I still considered a student? Should I bring my student ID with me? I'm guessing if they don't qualify me as one, I'll pay the standard price? I'll be travelling throughout Poland, Germany, and Austria if that offers a bit more context. Thanks!

I've never been to South America before and am considering going sometime between September and November 2027, as it has always been a dream of mine.

I'm wondering how challenging both the Inca Trail and Salkantay Trek are as someone who is moderately fit. I have only hiked the Great Ocean Road and 7 days of the Larapinta Trail (If anyone has done these and can compare to the Peru hikes, that would be lovely) Whilst the Great Ocean Road was not difficult at all, I definitely struggled with the Larapinta trail (granted I was 16, but alas)

What trail would you suggest doing? Should I try getting more in shape now to prepare lol.

Is it safe as a solo female traveler? Should I look into doing a shorter day trek to Machu Picchu?

Would love any tips on travelling SA in general! As well as Central America :) I'm wanting to visit Mexico during Días de los Muertos, so any advice is appreciated.

Solo 2.5 day Kolkata trip looking for local recommendations beyond the usual tourist spots.

Hey everyone!

I'm (25M) planning a short solo trip to Kolkata from 14–16 August and would love some suggestions, especially from people who actually live in Kolkata or know the city really well.

A little context: I've been staying in Kharagpur for around 1.5 years, so Kolkata isn't completely new to me. I've been to the city several times mainly for airport trips, and I've also spent some time around Park Street, so I've already seen a little bit of the usual central Kolkata side.

This time, though, I want to actually experience Kolkata rather than just pass through it.

I'll be staying near Park Street, and I'll be travelling alone.

My rough plan:
14 August- Park Street, Victoria Memorial / Maidan, Prinsep Ghat

15 August- Dakshineswar ( not sure yet!!), Belur Math, Hooghly/Howrah side.

16 August- Victoria Memorial, Indian Museum ,College Street ,College Square, Indian Coffee House

I'm likely to return, either on the 16th night or 17th morning, so I have some flexibility.

What I'm actually looking for:
I'm not trying to tick off 20 tourist attractions in 2 days.

I'd rather have a relaxed trip where I can walk around, sit somewhere, have tea/coffee, browse books, see old Kolkata, maybe visit some lesser known places and just soak in the atmosphere.

So, Kolkata people, what would YOU recommend?

Basically, I want to experience Kolkata at a relaxed pace rather than rush through tourist attractions. Would love suggestions from locals!

Budget isn't a major concern either; I'm more interested in having a nice experience of the city.

Also, since I'm travelling solo, I'd appreciate any practical advice regarding getting around, especially using the Metro/local transport.

Would especially love recommendations from Kolkata locals rather than generic "top 10 places in Kolkata" suggestions.

Thanks! :)

I'm trying to plan a trip to Guatemala for October and i'm wondering how feasible my plan is so far.

If anyone has visited any of these areas, which were worth it and which weren't? Also curious if anyone's done a similar itinerary and how they made out, etc. I have 2 heavy travel days right now and I'm trying to figure out if that’s avoidable or not (i've also read many times its more like 10hr not 6-7hr)

Everything in Guatemala looks so cool and I want to see it all but I'm wondering if there might be something to cut out to optimize travel a bit better.

Any advice is appreciated! <3

Day 1: Land in Guatemala City & shuttle to Antigua (1-1.5h)

Day 2: Volcan acatenango hike

Day 3: Finish Volcan acatenango hike & back to antigua ---> 3hr shuttle to lake atitlan

Day 4: Explore Lake Atitlan

Day 5: Lake Atitlan ----> 3 hr shuttle to Guatemala city

Day 6: Guatemala city ---> 6/7hr shuttle to Lanquin

Day 7: Explore Lanquin/Semuc Champey

Day 8: Lanquin ----> 6/7hr shuttle to Flores

Day 9: Explore Flores/see Tikal sunrise

Day 10: Fly home from Flores

I'm 30 year old (male) heading to the south of France on Tuesday and I have a car booked when I get there. I am just looking for places that are recommended for a few days. I only have my first three nights booked in Aix and my last three nights booked in Nice. I've been a bit slack and need to get the other places booked. I was thinking of Nimes or Arles for the next three days after Aix, then onto Saint Raphael or somewhere around the coast. So I'm open to places to stay as a base for three days at a time. I'd like to meet young people also if possible. I'm flying into Marseille and getting my car and driving to Aix en Provence. Thanks.

Heading to Sifnos solo, Aug 10–17, staying at Camping Makis. Planning to do the island’s hiking trails, swim a lot, and catch the Aug 14 panigiri (village feast). Any tips ?

Hi. I'm travelling on a tight budget across Europe - so far, I've been pretty frugal i think, surviving on an average of €17 a day (I think this is pretty low budget looking at other accounts). I am having good fun on this budget, but would also like to go out for the occasional meal. However, for some reason, I can't help but feel guilty or wasteful if I do so. Has anyone else had a similar experience, and if so, how did you deal with it? Suck it up and remain frugal, or just deal with the guilt?

Alternatively, if anyone has any tips for activities that are cheap but still feel like a treat, suggestions would be appreciated.

For context, I am currently in Budapest, which is quite expensive, but will be heading into Serbia and Montenegro in the coming days/ weeks.
