Sorry

Just didn't want the board to go a whole week without a post.

Really wish there was an obvious way to get more activity here, but I have racked my brain and it's just not coming to me. If only we had access to motivated posters with a long history of engagement, but alas..

Anyone? Anyone?

Just pointing out it is pretty cool to restrain a terrorist with a narwhal tusk.

Exactly, see what happens when people sober up, get clean and find themselves. They get selfish and forget to over extrapolate their travels whether dangerous or ridiculous..

I was at the Lisbon FTXMarket today and met the coolest dude in this country, Rui https://m.facebook.com/profile.php?id=665468276from the Lisbon Surf Club. http://www.lisboncrooksandsurfers.com/surf-lisbon/

If you are in the region, check them out. And drop me a note.

No more travel advice forum Rob? This place is deader than Chernobyl. Hell, I came here to find some Libya info, be in Algeria and Tunisia next year and wanted to creep the border to check out Leptis Magna but seems there are no travellers here anymore.....fucking shame.

Since the world is now completely addicted to Dopamine releases that come with "Like," "Share" and "Follow" clicks, the forum just can't compete. I want the forums back.

I do miss the old place. There was a special feeling about being the dumbest and least traveled person on a forum. Not really but sometimes I felt that way.

Facebook is starting to lose people and some of the old timers are still lurking around the BFC. Maybe things will pick up.

I am based in Tunisia now and off to both Libya and Algeria in 2020. Probably Algeria first in my 4x4!
