my trip: 'Murica

  1. Alright everyone, I had a trip to two places in the states, aka, 'Murica. I went to Rochester NY and Washington DC, took some pictures, saw some views. In my opinion, I actually like America, it has architecture, ghetto-like areas, expensive-looking houses, and nice Hotels. During my stay, I checked out at Radisson for Rochester, and the Mariott for Washington. I didn't like the Mariott because it was close to the Metro, but I liked Radisson because it had nice food. I tasted American burgers, and a few other things, but mainly burgers. In my adventures, I checked out a university in Rochester, the NTID. And another university in Washington, with some museums after the tour. In Washington I checked out Gaulladet University. Not bad, but unfortunately I am unable to use sign language well enough to go there. Maybe NTID, but most likely not. One thing you may notice is, those two universities are for Deaf people. So let's let that sink in...
    so until then
    PEACE OUT
     
  2. You've earned a cookie?
    ?


    Rochester is by me? I'm glad you enjoyed my part of America
     
  3. It was a fun trip, and also, warmer than Canada
     
  4. If you decide to go to NY again, you should go to New York City....... That place is amazing. Only really in Manhattan and some parts of Brooklyn........ Not the Bronx though lol
     
  5. America is a great country, only the idiots who have never been here and the idiots who havent experienced how much the rest of the world sucks dislike america.
     
  6. I mean I live in America......... And I think it sucks. There are very valid reasons for why other countries dislike us and I do not blame them.
     
  7. Food is the first problem in America to me 

    I'm French, in Paris I only eat Biological Agriculture food, a lot of fish and vegetables mostly, a few times meat (every kind).

    America is (to me) a complete disaster on agricultural responsibility. I go regularly to NYC, and every time I see cheap meat, (when it's around 12-15$ in France, you can get the same weight at 2-3$ in US ) and I'm always surprised these prices are so low.
    As I did research, I know chose not to eat ANY meat in US.
    _GMO crops, cheap and dangerously made to feed animals --> who aren't supposed to eat them. Cows eat grass, not corn either soy ****.
    _GMO fruits and Vegs. How can you eat that ?

    Now I know it helps decrease the prices on food, but would you really cut 10-15 years of your life to eat dangerously ? I wouldn't.


    Except this fact and weapons, USA is a great country, every time I travel there I'm always surprised how most of the people I meet are nice. (I'm not saying ALL American citizens are sweet and cool, but I met A LOT of great folks)
    Manhattan and San Diego are my 2 favorite places yet, I can't wait to see Seattle and Baton Rouge (old french city yay ?)
     
  8. Is it bad that America likes to be able to feed everyone? just cause our meat ain't expensive don't make it any less better I enjoy myself a greasy burger that's my god given right
     
  9. When i was in the philippines
    i was sort of fit
    But when i migrated.to america…
    i became chubby
     
  10. You gotta continue to exercise?
     
  11. Im not fat and all
    but like i have small fats
    and im starting to get a double chin

    I did exercise for one day…
    But i got tired
     
  12. Because your meat is cheap, makes it bad.

    --> pushes consumption of meat, creating higher rates of pollution, 925 gallons of water are needed to make 1 burger. Think about it.

    --> Cheap GMO crops given to cows creates disease (which already killed people, mostly affecting young children) and this cheap GMO meat creates (proven with rats) higher chances of getting cancers.

    Oh and no free life insurance is also a bad aspect of America.

    France's meat is health but expensive, and we still achieve to feed everyone (with the one of the best results in taking care of poor people is from France.) red meat (most expensive one) isn't the only good existing, and it's not an obligation to eat it everyday.

    I think everyone should decrease their consumption of meat, specially red meat. I'm not saying everyone should become veg, but reduces their meals based on red meat to 1 or 2 times a week.

    That would change a lot.
     
  13. Lol, I still like America, yummy burgers, good hot dogs
     
  14. ️Jims reason is why I switched to organic meat, lol. I don't like the chemicals or unnatural things they put in the "cheap meat" as he calls it. Organic meat isn't that much pricier, but it also taste better too, and in the long run is much healthier for you. Organic fruits, veggies, and meats is the way to go. Just not organic chocolate blah.
     
  15. I once tried an organic meat burger....in the past 12 years of not throwing up,I've never come closer than that time and the time I tried a veggie burger
     
  16. You should try a bison burgerthose things are delicious
     
  17. Organic does not equal veggie 
     
  18. Tia,if that was twards me,then re-read what I posted. I stated the times where that AND the time I tried a veggie burger
    Not saying those where the same,but that both nearly made me puke
     
  19. I'm with you on veggie burgers they are disgusting 
     
  20. Tried one at a hospital covered trip to a water park(once a year for my family cos two of us work there).....it was the worst thing I've tasted
