So, without any more delays, here is the interview with my boy Ricardo where we’re going to go over the differences between Latin America and Europe. like different tricks here when you’re traveling, what are the best places to travel and things of that nature. This guy is very knowledgeable. He’s been traveling to so many countries within the na within the last two years and he’s going to go over some of them as well. So, I hope you like it. Again, leave a comment, subscribe, talk to you on the next one. Check out the content is so fire right now. Um, let me introduce you to my man Ricardo. Hello. Nice to meet you guys. My name is Lee Card and I’m from South Korea and then I met Ray Harper like 2021 or 2020 in finally we met up again after 4 years and her in Kra in Poland. Yeah man. So um how many countries have you done since we met? Like I do not really count where I have been but like since I met you like I’ve been to like for sure like over 25 or 25 or more. Sorry. Yeah. Yeah. in two years like 25 countries. I think he done more cuz I remember you did like Latin America completely. You did like all the countries only except Ecuador and Bolivia and Venezuela. Venezuela too. Yeah. Venezuela. Yeah. So he’s only missing those three countries. He same as me cuz I’m missing Venezuela and Bolivia and Paraguay. I’m missing Paraguay. Paraguay. I didn’t do Paraguay. So I’m missing those three and he’s missing um Venezuela, Bolivia and Ecuador. Ecuador. Yeah, I did Ecuador. Ecuador is you’re going to like it. All right. So, and he also don’t like most of Europe, right? You done almost Europe like I would say like half of Europe. Yeah. Yeah. And you done Asia? Well, you you’re from Korea. I’m from South Korea. So, I did like also half of half of Asia Middle East. Yeah. So, you only missing the Middle East so far. So if you want to say what is the difference for you between Europe and Latin America because now you’ve done most of like 90% of Latin America and like 80% of Europe right so if you had to compare how do you compare it like what you what you like about um Europe versus Latin America okay it was my first time to visit to Europe like four or five years ago but when I came to Europe it was really beautiful with the architecture and the people And when I went to the Latin America, I also felt different between Europe and the Latin America because Latin America is like less developed but still develop or less develop and like you know like you feel like more chill and relax or like and then after that when I come back to Europe again in that time like it’s like more for work busy it’s like more city you know like so you cannot do really many things than you did in Latin America like for example like supermarket on the street you know Like so for me like there’s so many things to do in Europe but after I visit to Europe four times there’s no special things anymore like unless you go to for the nature you know from the All right cool so let me get this clear so what you’re saying basically is that you like Europe but then when you once you see it like two three times you already seen it you don’t feel the need to go back to do it again but then what about Latin America will you be able to continuously going back to the same places like in Brazil like in Argentina. I know you like Argentina like would you consider like going multiple times? Yeah. I mean like they have also regulation on like kind of the rules of the country but like you know like not only like you can do almost everything like you know drinking on the beach but sometime in Europe like for example in Kraov it’s illegal to drink an alcohol and like holding alcohol on the street you know so like you know like I don’t know how to explain but yeah I know I get a lot of countries is like that it’s illegal to to drink alcohol in the streets even in the US right now when I lived in New York we couldn’t drink in the streets or the parks or nothing like that. So I know in some Europe in some cities in Europe it’s the same thing. You’re not you’re not allowed to drink in the streets. You could only drink like within your house. I know for example in Sweden you could only buy alcohol for one place and and the place is owned by the government actually. So they have a monopoly with that stuff. They are the only ones who can send the alcohol in Sweden which is super crazy but I mean know that’s how it happens. That’s how he works for them, right? So, what else can you say about Latin America? Which one is your favorite country in Latin America? I’m going to put you on the spot. It depends one you like. If you like nature, it depends one you like. Nature. For nature, which one is your favorite for nature? Most of the country has a really good nature. But I have to say like maybe Argentina. Argentina for nature. Yeah. Because if you go to south, it feel like more like cold like in the winter, you know. If you go to north, it depends on the season, but like more warm and you know like with the mountain too or the south and with the mountain. Okay. So, Argentina is a good choice cuz like you said, you got Baroce, you got Mal Plata. There’s a lot to do when it comes to like things like that. You know what I’m saying? But when it comes to night life, which one is your favorite country in Latin America? It’s always easy to meet people in there. It’s always easy to meet people. But for me like I would say like for clubbing argentina argentina for club because the night don’t stop in. No no they even start party like from midnight and then they ended the party like around like 8 or 9:00 a.m. you know and I remember cuz when I was going to Argentina I reached out to my man Ricardo and he actually gave me some clubs to go. Remember you you told me which clubs to go to. I think I did. Yeah. Yeah. I went to one of the clubs you told me too and it was really nice. And also Arena they have a like they play like most of the music because in Latin like they mostly play leaton. Yeah. Which is good. I also like that. But in Arena they play legon funk music like you know right house techno. So that’s why I think I like the most in. All right. Something that everybody wants to know which one is your favorite country for women like in Latin America? in Latin or in No, in Latin America like I say like only one or Okay, give me give me one and then we make a decision which one would be the second one. First I would say like Argentina. Argentina for women number two. Brazil. What city in Brazil though? What city? Which city? It depends but like for me like people told me like we is the best for women but I don’t agree with that. I think like S Pablo. S Po is, you know, that’s very different cuz like 90% of the guys that I hear talking about Brazil, they say that S. Pablo is not a good place for for for to meet women. That the best place is real. But you the only person that have talked to that says that S Pablo is is a but it’s the best part to meet a woman in real general. This is true. But you know like it’s just good to meet new people you know just good to meet the people in there but like for a girl like by the appearance for me in Zalo they have like every race like Asian, black, like European, white, you know like lot. So you got more to pick from. Yeah. Yeah. More variety. You have more option population you know like I think like more option to go out. That makes sense. I mean that makes total sense. I mean, the amount of people that they have in Sa Paulo is insane. It’s one of the most populated cities in the world right up there with Mexico and China. You know what I’m saying? So, I know in Mexico City, I would say the same thing. Like, you could find any kind of woman you’re looking for in Mexico City because the amount of people they have. And I’m pretty sure in China will be the same way. If you’re looking for that type, you know, that you like that type of um woman, right? All right. What about Europe? Which one is your favorite city for nature? For the nature. To be honest, I’m not really into nature. But if you have to pick one, me I didn’t go to that much place for the nature, but like as I healed from the people, I have to say Norway. Norway. Yeah, Norway sounds good. Damn beautiful lake. Or Switzerland. Or Oh, Switzerland. Yeah. And Iceland, too. I never been to Iceland, so I have no clue is that Or maybe like Ital or Croatia. Yeah. All right. What about night life in Europe? Any for the night life? Guys, look at that right there. I’m in Poland. What’s up? All right, go ahead. For the night life, people always told me to go to Berlin, Barcelona, Amsterdam, but I never been to those country. This is country. So, I do not really know that. But the country where I have been, no, Serbia, Belgrade is the best part so far for me. Belgrade. And we’re going to be putting some content out for Belgrade. Sure. Belgrade is the best. Belgrade really like top five in Europe. But why? It’s a reasonable price. The price. Yeah. Price. It’s cheaper. Way cheaper than Western Europe. And also for me like there’s less homeless people and like less like thief. So it’s like more safe. So there’s there it’s safety safety. There’s no petty. There’s less tourist. Less tourist. Yeah. Less tourist. There’s like still a lot of tourist people but like compared to western. No, it’s nothing. So you get to meet like the original Serbian people from there. You’re not meeting tourists when you go there. You’re meeting actually locals. It’s easy to meet a local, but like they are conservative. Conservative. Conservative. Yeah. Oh, I got it. So about women, which one is your favorite? I I’m pretty sure you’re going to say the same thing I’m thinking, but I’m going to ask you anyways. What is your favorite city for women in Europe? In Europe, Serbia. And in the world or Serbia? Oh my god. So you like Serbia even more than Latin America? Yeah, for sure. After I been to after I spent two months in Belgrade, I changed my opinion for sure. 100%. The best life for women. They’re the most beautiful in the world. People don’t know when people told me if you like a woman you need to go to Sweden, Denmark with the belong. Yes, I was in there. Sweden and Denmark and they were not for you. But they were beautiful. I agree with them. or like I I think they are just they are not judging my type. I’m into more backhand girls like Montenegro, Serbia. So hold on. Let me clear this out to my audience. So basically what my man is saying that he likes girls in the Balkcans, right? The Balkcans which is like Serbia, Montenegro um um whatchamacallit, Romania, Croatia, Bugattia, Bulgaria, all these countries belong to the Balkans, right? And he’s saying because he’s saying that he’s like he likes he’s basically a black guy. He likes thickness. He want to see a girl with booty. He wants a thick girl. He ain’t looking for them skinny. He says what he was telling me earlier is that he comes from that in Korea. Like the standard for a beautiful woman is to be skinny. But he’s not into that. He he was raising that everywhere. He wants to see thickness. And he was saying how after he came to Latin America and he saw how the girls look in Latin America that’s the standard that he looks for thick. It is it is thick big booty girls everywhere. So he found them in Serbia and that’s why he likes Serbia so much. He says Serbia has the face the style and the body. They also have like you know like the tour people in the world. So basically they they have the height the body. How was the intimate? Yo, they were good in the bed. I didn’t like with three girls, but like Yeah, they were good. Yeah. Ah, yo guys, I’m I’m going over there soon. This guy is making me want to change my flight. Like I now I want to go earlier. Like I want to skip Budapest and then go and just go straight to Serbia. But I’mma do it. I’m I’mma go for a little bit, test it out, and if I like it, we could always come back. There’s still planes around, right? All right. So, what are some final words that you want to say when it comes to traveling? Any suggestions? any tips about traveling, you know, how to be how to travel safe, like where to go. Like for a person that has never traveled in their life, what would you suggest the best three countries to visit first? For first traveler, like a new guy traveling. Wow, it’s really good question for me. Like only three destination, right? Yeah. Three destinations. You could say one in Latin America, like one in Asia, one in Europe and one in Asia. Yeah. Like in Europe, I would say like Portugal. Portugal. Portugal in Europe. Portugal. Okay. Portugal is Portugal is nice and like in Asia I would say I have like three destination in Asia. So maybe like Tokyo Soul or Thailand you know Tokyo Se or China. It’s the best you know like one of those three in in in in Asia in Latin America for first timer I think I would say Brazil for a first timer. Brazil. You think it’s easy, it might be dangerous for you, but if you follow the rule, don’t use your phone, don’t do stupid things, do not walk in the night alone, then it it’s going to be fine, you know. Everywhere is too dangerous everywhere. I’m surprised you didn’t say Serbia, you say po um Portugal, but it’s not for girls, you know, for everything for the first time. Who never first time. All right, cool. So let recapping my men is saying that the three countries that he would suggest for a brand new person traveling the wants to experience the world and want to go around it would be Thailand se or Tokyo right for the first if you want to go in Asia one of those three countries and when it comes to Europe is a um Portugal Portugal and where Latin America he was saying Brazil but Brazil is really huge too you know. Yeah. Also, local people doesn’t even know where the place is in Brazil, you know. Yeah. So, yeah. All right, guys. So, I mean, thank you for watching. This is my man Ricardo. If you’re into traveling, you might get you might see him around cuz my man is non-stop traveling. He’s been traveling non-stop for like the last 5 years. I can’t stop because of the military service. Yeah, he had to stop for a year because he had to go back to Korea to do milit mil the military service. You have to do it at when you reach uh certain age and now that he’s done he’s back into traveling non-stop. Are you going back to Korea anytime soon? I have no plan to go back to South Korea. I don’t like there anymore. So you heard it from himself. He’s not going back. So he’s just going to continue traveling for as long as he can. That’s how good it is, man. This is how good we have it.

Good stuff brodie! I keep hearing about Portugal and Serbia as top quality places that are highly underrated. I guess I know where I'll be going if I ever make it to Europe. It's wild that he didn't mention Colombia or any of the other hot spots. Argentina isn't on my bucket list but Brazil is sounding more and more like the pound for pound champ. Can't wait to see your content in Serbia! Keep living it up!
Man great interview ! Thanks a lot for the knowledge. Your friend is really chill and likeable.
If you want to visit a country in Europe where you can drink in public go to Bulgaria. Nice peoples and Sofia is a chill place !
