It's weird some nomad will judge you based on your origin. Like if you're from Asia you're poorer than US or EU people. I joined a few dn meetup that's what I felt. I know I'm Asian but I'm not a passport bro or digital brokemad. I think I make slight more coz I work for US company (without being an American, hey, it's possible!). Stereotyping is as annoying as being racist. Maybe experienced nomad won't have this attitude.

Forget about meetups. They're for people with poor social skills to shit on others. If you want to meet someone from online, make sure to chat with them for a couple days first to make sure they're not just another narcissistic loser.

But really, just forget about meetups and go meet people in real life instead.

Damn that's what I thought I was doing at meet-ups 👀

While travelling until I’m proven wrong I judge

  • backpackers wearing elephant pants as poor, fine with a low quality of life while travelling
  • Americans as loud, obnoxious and inconsiderate
  • Nigerians as loving football and knocking up girls on one night stands

Obviously I won’t treat you like shit unless it becomes warranted

I have another list specific to DNs

Americans are loud, there's no getting away from that. I wonder if they're all deaf.

I always find this fascinating. Where I grew up we were always taught on school that we have to talk quietly, even in public spaces out of respect. This is something still ingrained in me. Now the problem is whoever I'm with can't always hear me.

"digital brokemad" is hilarious

Some individuals are nobheads, doesn't matter what walk of life they are from. Don't sweat it, you don't want to hang out with dickbags like that anyway.

Also, don't judge the ppbs, they're just responding to incentives like everyone else.

I'm the opposite to you, white woman. And I get stereotyped too wherever I go.

I have had many restaurants tell me they won't make me a certain meal because I won't like or it will be too spicy for me. My favourite food is sichuan cuisine and I eat a lot of spice and almost everything. One of my favourite meals is tendon noodle soup. I know I eat a lot of food considered "adventurous" by other white woman. It's just the way of the world.
