Εδώ είναι πώς οι περισσότεροι βλέπουν τη σημερινή κατάσταση.
It's not an excuse.
Instagram and Tinder ruined pretty much every location (at least in Europe), now every girl who is a 6s and above can get handsome, high status men from all over the world sitting comfortably in their bedrooms.
Most men don't even travel anymore, they just buy Tinder Plus and swipe to every city in East Europe looking for girls and then they go there or invite them in their city. When this is done by thousands of men that city becomes ruined. Before the social networks and dating apps you needed to go in that place to find a girl and approach, now it's all virtual and digital and can be done from every city in the world. Girls can get matches easily with good looking, young guys from capital cities in Europe and the US. Their standards are way up, they got pretentious and snobbier.
Some cities like Kiev are completely ruined, men all over the world switch their GPS there and swipe trying to find a good looking girl. They constantly give those girls validation with their matches even if eventually they don't even go there. That's enough to completely ruin a city. Girls in Kiev got so pretentious that now stupid, desperate foreigners pay them the same price as they'd pay a girl in Western Europe or the US.
Now, if that was limited to Kiev I'd be ok.....East Europe is big and I could go to one of the many other destinations.
The problem is that with dating apps it takes just two second to switch the GPS another time and go from Kiev to Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Warsaw, Minsk, Odessa, Riga, Tallin, Budapest, Vilnius, you name it.
They ruined pretty much every destination in East Europe....or at least all the biggest/capital cities.
It also didn't help the fact that many east european countries joined the EU and got billions in funds in the last 15 years and their standard of living got way way better. Guys have more money to take care of themselves, girls seek high education and good jobs and seducing these girls as a tourist got way harder.
If with travel you mean reaching a place in an easy way, staying a weekend, making some photos for Instagram and after going back home, yes, this the golden age.
While if you mean travelling for game purpose, hell no.
Nowadays only if you're a billionaire you can get the same attention and girls you could get in Eastern Europe 20 years ago just for being a Westerner.
And you're going to catch girls more interested in your money than in you, while back then most of the time it was just pure and genuine curiosity, something that you can't buy with money.
Golden age for Eastern Europe was right after the fall of USSR in 1991 until the join of those countries to EU in 2004. IMHO
Before 1991 it was complicated to get visas for communist countries (even if a lot of Italians did those visas, what a folk we're), and after 2004 a lot of girls left for Germany, France, UK and Scandinavian countries, plus the INVASION of tourists who literally "burned everything" (for game purpose).
For other parts of the world I can't say anything.
P.S.
It was good too after 2004, especially if compared to the West, but it was no longer the "golden age".
I still try to keep a stoic attitude to this. I can't change the way the world is anyway. The world is finite, while thirst and pedestalisation by men is infinite. Potentially any country could get flooded by Western men worshipping 4s and lavishing them with money.
Yes, but they're not good for game purpose.
Small places have the "small town mentality", and it means conservative girls who don't go with foreigners that fast and/or that easy.
The only way there is staying a lot of time in order to be their boyfriend.
And I'm curious to know how you'll find the time, the money and the motivation in order to live jobless in a super boring shithole.
Life isn't only girls, and when you'll find yourself in such a boring place that you consider suicide a good way to pass time, you'll understand what I mean.
Plus usually there are no girls in the 18-28 age range, because usually they go in the big cities in order to study at the university.
And usually the beauty level is way way lower compared to the big cities, because the good looking girls leave the small towns looking for better opportunities.
About Belarus, Minsk is flooded with Middle Eastern sex tourists who turned the city into a p4p funfair.
Of course there are normal girls too, but they avoid tourists like the plague.
Only way is to speak Russian (most of English speaker girls are spoiled and/or into p4p) and spend a LOT of time there, in order to show them you're serious and you aren't the average "fuckboy" or sex tourist.
While second tier cities like Gomel are literally THE BOREDOM.
Nothing to do, worse than staying in jail.
When I was staying there I was considering shooting in my nuts a plausible way to pass time.
Girls are friendly but:
1)Not that good, really really average beauties, not even worth the trip IMHO.
2)Not that easy, small town mentality=time and dedication.
P.S.
Of course you'll get busy with dates, but you won't be into dates H24, and girls usually are free all the same time, because usually they're busy with work and studies (with the same schedule).
Almost all the young girls left for Kiev or other Ukrainian cities (if not abroad).
Look at the increase of the rent price in Kiev after Euromaidan:
The increase was to due to the influx of refugees from the war zones.
Minsk: 10 years later
Belarus is still known as the last dictatorship of Europe. For many it's a secretive state, a preserved relic of the Soviet way of life. Well, guess what: no more!. Globalization and feminism are slowly, but surely, transforming the local society.
Having recently returned from a week long visit to Minsk, the capital of Belarus, after an absence of almost 10 years, I couldn't feel but shocked with the transformation that I experienced, most notably in terms of how girls behave and their approach to men. To get the record straight I must say that I've spent most of the previous decade in Belarus and even lived in Minsk for a couple of years. Then, in 2010, my professional duties took me elsewhere and I wasn't able to come back until recently. I was prepared to see some change but what I've experienced was beyond my wildest expectations.
Surely the recently implemented five (now 30) days visa free program brought an increasing exposure to foreign visitors. But that, by itself, does not justify the changes that I've witnessed. Westernization is rampant and global "cultural trends" increasingly visible. I didn't go to the city to "game" (opera and classical music are my new "hobbies") and please spare me the already heard arguments "You got older, that's what changed". Yes, I agree that I now see things with different "eyes". But the changes are real, particularly in a society that, in many aspects, has not changed at all for the last 30 years. Here's a list of the top 5 most relevant changes:
1)
The foreigner status (often) works against you
My first visit to Belarus was in 1999. At that time, very few foreigners were visiting the country. The small number that did were mostly mature men from the Middle East. I was young, tall, European and learned Russian fast. I felt like a movie star and got attention everywhere I went. I actually didn't even need to game. Girls were after me all the time and the difficulty was to chose which one to take home. Fast forward 20 years and the scenario is completely different. With the 30 days visa free program, the volume of male visitors has increased significantly (from all parts of the world). Soon the first low cost airline will start regular flights to Minsk (WizzAir from Budapest). This means that being a foreigner lost its added value in the eyes of the girls. In fact, they are starting to see them as an annoyance, as it's clear that many of those tourists are visiting with the sole intent of getting laid and practice the so called "sex tourism". If you are a visiting foreigner, you have to convince the local ladies that you are not like "all the others that are looking for one night stands". If you don't speak Russian, that may be a hard job.
2)
Your money is nothing special
Back in 1999 I took 300 US Dollars for a 3 weeks long stay. By the end of it, I still brought some money back. It's not just that products and services were cheaper. The thing is that there were not a lot of options available on where to spend money (theater, concerts, entertainment were inexpensive and the offer limited). 20 years later, unless you are a very rich person, your material wealth will not be noticeable in Minsk anymore and you may even find the city "expensive" (you don't impress a girl by taking her to Lido). Young locals (especially guys) are starting to develop a sense of fashion and have easy access to main international fashion brands. They also have increasing buying power and many of them work for international companies (mainly IT). So unless you are really well-to-do, your material well-being (that was always a factor that attracted local girls) is irrelevant or even a point in your disfavor. A guy working in and European corporate, with a standard salary, is not in an advantageous position versus the native folks. Local girls have options and your middle-class European salary is nothing that will make you standout.
3) Shopping malls everywhere
In 1999 (and most of the 2000's first decade) to go to a shopping mall in Belarus meant visiting a space with small stalls where everything was sold. Many products were counterfeited (I lost count of the illegal copies of video-games that I bought) and there were no official brand stores, with the exception of Benetton. Nowadays there are huge modern shopping malls everywhere in Minsk. The old type of shopping centers are slowly fading away into oblivion. Many of the articles in those modern shopping centers come at a premium price. The problem is that ladies love to shop at those places so while in the past a shopping trip with a girl was an easy, risk-free activity, nowadays she may easily blow up your budget in a couple of hours. Never forget: men should pay for everything, even if the girl "loves you very much"Smile
4)
Top girls are gone
Yes, you may still be visiting Belarus these days and thinking "Wow, the girls here are crazy hot!". Well, actually, they were even better in the past. And a lot more of them!. This is not just an opinion: it's a fact and the justification is simple. In the late 90's / early 00's girls had fewer options to escape the grey, oppressive routine of day-to-day life in Belarus. Visas to Western countries were extremely hard to get and the former Soviet countries were not much better than Belarus itself. You could easily see 10's roaming down the streets of Minsk or working in cramped sales booths or as waiters in restaurants. Damn, I even bagged a Playmate and a Miss Belarus during those times. With the years passing, the context changed: life in big Russian cities created many mini-oligarchs and they became an obvious choice for the better looking girls. Schengen visas became a bit easier to get but, most of all, the Emirates "appeal" wiped out almost completely the top layer of the most attractive girls in Minsk. There are a lot of options abroad for the exquisite beauties that Belarus produces. The ones that stay are now dictating the rules of what they want and who they want.
5)
Online dating is ruined
Don't get me wrong: I'm not saying that you should go to Belarus to date online. However, in the past, there were a few online dating tools that, if well explored, could fast-track you to meet an amazing number of beauties. Actually, I often used those 2 or 3 online tools to optimize my time and get as many dates as possible in one day (knowing that the local culture of flaking is widespread). Mamba or LovePlanet were great places to start if you wanted to secure a steamy winter night in Minsk. Nowadays a gazillion number of applications is available, with many of them being nothing more than a validation tool for local girls. Others, like Tinder, are often used to convince the "naive" visitor to take the girl to an expensive place or to a bar / disco where she will get a commission for every customer she brings in. It takes a lot more effort to navigate through the scammers and "validation profiles" until you manage to get to talk to a "real" girl. During Autumn/ Winter visits "street gamers" will struggle and the "night scene" is overcrowded with "thirsty" players. The days of getting a girl, that you met online, to visit your flat in the midst of a winter snowstorm are, now, nothing more than old memories.
With that said the reality is that generalizations are always flawed. Of course you can still go to Minsk and have a great time. The city is quite pleasant to visit and there are still plenty of available girls. Prepare yourself well, learn some Russian, be "manly", set some dates even before you arrive, adjust to local habits (no sex on first date, etc) and give yourself some time (short visits will most likely fail to produce results). You will still be successful. What I'm saying is that your experience will be a bit different from the (my) good old days.
