This is a follow-up to my question from yesterday. My “toxic trait” is that long-distance travel is what really excites me, so Europe is off the list. My initial top choice was South Korea, but the drinking age is 19 and I really want to be able to go clubbing, so that’s also off the list.

Japan’s pros are obvious, it’s one of the top travel destinations in the world. The downside for me is that I’ve already been there with my family, so it might not feel as exciting as going somewhere completely new.

China wasn’t even on my radar at first, but then I saw that Swiss citizens can travel visa-free for 30 days between March 14, 2024 and December 31, 2026, which really sparked my interest.

Taiwan is another option, but I honestly don’t know much about it.

I called it quits with my boyfriend today on a video call. It had been brewing for a while, and the breakup was very amicable. Instead of feeling angry or sad, I actually feel fresh and excited. I think it’s because we got into the relationship very quickly, and I never really got the chance to explore or “play the field.”

I was chatting with my parents last night, and they said that since we’re stuck in Switzerland and I seem quite bored, and since I’m a legal adult now, why don’t I go on a trip abroad alone? I’m considering it, but I’ve never traveled solo before, so I don’t know.

My male best friend and I have known each other since we were 12, and we both happen to be foreigners in the country we’re living in (I’m from Switzerland, and he’s from India). We’re super close and talk about anything and everything. My boyfriend doesn’t care about it, but he still says that my best friend is just “waiting for his turn with me.” However, he trusts me, and I’m happy, so it’s cool. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with having a best friend of the opposite gender. I also read a thread on another site about it, and opinions were mixed, so I’m curious what you think.
