A person lying on the internet…who could have foreseen this?
I’ve been to most of these countries, they are all very nice. But like with anywhere it kinda depends on when and where you are, and you typically won’t get a real sense of the place unless you have a lot of time to travel.
The country side of Mongolia is beautiful in the warm season, I hear it’s pretty barren and freezing when it’s cold. About 50% of the population lives in Ulaanbaatar and it has a pretty bad issue with air pollution. It was very smoggy when I visited, and I hear it gets a lot worse in the winter season when it regularly has some of the worst air pollution in the world.
The only way you lived in North Korea and South Korea is if you defected, in which case you wouldn’t have also gone to China and Mongolia. My guess is that you’re just a racist European.
I have a mongolian friend, he said it was a choice between a dystopian city or the vast empty nature. I guess if you like nature it could be good but the density is sooooo low there are places where you wont see civilization for hundreds of kilometers.
driving through iowa for hours is honestly probably more dangerous than driving drunk. you get so bored you just fall asleep at the wheel because there is NOTHING but road
I’m definitely going to visit next year … just putting away money for now. I’ll see if I can add Kunming to the list, thanks!
I can’t wait to eat more food. My Cantonese is “okay” but my Mandarin is garbage … I’m gonna spend the next year or so watching dramas and stuff to catch up!
I have lived in all five of these countries and I can confirm, it’s all true. Especially china. It just sucks cock.
🥵🥵 how much does it? 🥵🥵
Damn I better get a ticket to china then
That’s interesting, what was Mongolia like and were you there for specific work opportunities or just because you liked moving around?
Edit: hang on… North Korea…

The only liar I see is you. Go away.

Y’all are stupid, the answer is so obvious: he’s Kim Jong Un!
Either they started with North Korea and escaped or they ended their tour with NK and they’re still there.

Must be the first one. This is a bona fide DPRK escapist

You can visit North Korea. They assign a guy to you to make sure you only see the approved stuff.
Why would someone do that? go on the internet and tell lies?
Not sure if you’re serious or not but the reason for it is that it can be pretty fun at times
I fucked up the quote

I watched a heartwarming short of a guy getting stopped by the police in Mongolia for using a wind sail powered horizontal bike thingy.
2 locals also showed up on a moped

“It’s nice to see all 5 people in Mongolia meet up to see how OP’s bike works”
Oulan-Bator looks like your first SimCity game when you had 10yo and just put random coal plant there and there.
There are places like that in the usa. It’s about everywhere actually.
driving through iowa for hours is honestly probably more dangerous than driving drunk. you get so bored you just fall asleep at the wheel because there is NOTHING but road
Imagine thinking the US is just Bakersfield.
I meant the lack of civilization ^^
Yeah, I said Bakersfield. I got you.
Kinda like Shadowrun.
I have read this comment therefore I also can confirm that everything stated is 100% facts.
I’m ethnically Chinese but never been there, well only the airport … but why’s it suck so much?
I know people that wanna go back due to cost of living but I heard housing isn’t cheap neither (depending on where you live perhaps?)
It doesn’t.
Housing is extremely affordable compared to here in the U.S. So is food, transportation and healthcare.
I highly recommend Kunming

How did you end up seeing the airport and only the airport?
lol I was on my way to Vietnam … only had a 3 hour layover and didn’t plan on leaving the airport.
Wait, Mongolia will think I’m cool because I’m 300 lbs? Dope.
I’m going to head there rn and fucking lift the front end of some vehicles and stuff.
