  • I think you lack context. This behavior goes back a long time (at least until 1998-99 when my wife and I did our backpacking trip around the world).

    Not only are they mostly gungho and rude, they tend to take over entire hostels or hotels, and threaten anyone who asks them not to do karaoke at 3:00 in the morning.

    Many nations have a “type” of traveler: Canadians consistency considered the best, Dutch too stingy, British atavistic, Aussies/Kiwis friendly and fun loving, etc. It’s been like this for literally decades.



  • Not necessarily. I’m same as OP, happened also in my 20s (a long damn time ago).

    I broke my collar bone a couple of years ago, and when I ran out of pain meds, I would smoke a bit of hash. As in one max two hits on a hash spliff.

    The hash helped with the pain for sure, but every single minute I had to do full on mindfulness. Walking to the store about to freak out then reminded my brain “hey that’s ok but we are walking now; go back to paying attention to you feet and arms.”

    I’ve tried smoking recreationally throughout the years. In the past 25 years I’ve had a good experience exactly once, and Io am convinced it was because the circumstances were literally perfect for me, mentally and physically.

    So yeah even with tiny doses of different strains, it just turned on my and stayed turned. And it sucks, yes.
