Ok so im going travelling, something i have always dreamed of doing for years. i also watched the blueprint and Tyler says that travelling is one of the most theraputic things a person can do and talks about how Tim ( from RSD PUA) level of game went to a whole new level after he come back from travelling round Europe.

Not just in regards to pick up but alot of people i know who have come back from travelling a long time completely changed but for the better, they seemed more wiser and confident and found themselves alot more which essentially is gonna help you alot more not just in pickup but in the way you see the world and live your life.

Im going on my own which is through choice because i want to get thrown completely out my comfort zone and be forced to meet new people constantly and experience completely different cultures and become alot more wiser to the world. Being very into my self development I truely believe il come out of this a better person and my level of game should go up a hell of a lot, id be very dissapointed if it didnt.

I was wondering if any of you guys have been travelling and how it changed you as a person and what effect it had on your game and if any one here is ever tempted to do the travelling thing ?

Im travelling for 6 months round asia , oz , nz and stopping off in america for a few days..

I wouldn't go in the mindset of wanting to improve your 'game', with the potential disappointment if you don't get laid. Surely doing something like this is about so much more anyway.

If you want to up your game I recommend going to somewhere like the greek islands and becoming a barman, or a PR even. Girls are basically going out there to have a good time, which more often than not entails having sex. I spent 3 seasons out in Kos and then Corfu and let me tell yer, it's bonkers!

I know i done the whole Malia Kavos Zante thing, plenty of women who want to get laid and its lots of fun but i wouldnt take it to the extreme of having to go out working there just to get to mastery level, their not places you could live or work for 6 months, well not me anyways.. would possibly make a trip to one one of the islands this year with mates just for a wilds lads week im sure it will be great fun.

Im going travelling because its a passion of mine and i generally want to go see the world and meet new people and maybe even make some amazing friends. only posted it in a pua perspective as its a pua forum because to some degree as alot of people who travel for a long time dont work you have time to practise alot especially day game so your skill level will go up to some degree depending you go out there and approach

First post and I am newbie-ish to put it in context!

I think Summer Junky has it spot on- make sure the mind-set isn't about getting laid- sounds like it's not anyway!

I backpacked round the World for 12 months solo - did SE Asia 3.5 months, Oz, NZ, States so similar route.

I was completely AFC, zero game. I did manage to get laid a few times and met someone who became a future girlfriend.
However another mate, great guy as AFC's often are, didn't get laid at all. Point is as AFC's we were both spinning the roulette wheel of chance with regards to attraction.

From a PUA perspective it should help because in theory you should be talking to everybody with no prejudice.

I still remember an early night up in Chang Mai, sitting in a bar, looking sheepish and afraid, usual AFC London talk to no one mindset. A couple of Dutch girls took pity, came over and mentioned you have to start talking to people. From then on I was a conversational dynamo.

The conversations I remember vividly are random like the South Koreans who spoke no English or the 75 year old woman hiking on her own on the South Island NZ.

The biggest disappointments were usually packs of English GAP students wearing shiny new trainers who thought they were Walter Raleigh because they'd made it to Sydney. 5 minutes of chat whilst they acted oh so cool could feel like a voyage to the moon.

The highlight was probably up in Bundaberg Oz when I was mixing sets together (although I didn't realise it at the time ) and had strangers who'd lived all their lives in the same town talking to each other. Overheard someone asking who that 'fukin cool English bloke was' respect!

So enough waffle, summary:

Your confidence in all situations will probably increase.
Your inner game may get tested if you go a few days without meeting anyone or get yourself into some traveller scrape- too many to mention!
Communication skills will rocket because you should be talking to 30 new people every day if not more.
You'll make new friends because of intense shared experience - my best mate in London was someone I met in karaoke in an Aussie bar!

Most importantly though you are indulging your passion, you'll be a treasure trove of anecdotes when you return and that should make you seriously desirable whether or not you had a few nocturnal interludes on the way.

Oh and if you really get stuck, Woolshed in Cairns

Have fun.

I think it's a great opportunity to get good. I've travelled alot around SE Asia and the Far East, and also spent a year living in Bangkok training. This was before I knew anything about pick up and I still got alot more sex than I was used to back home. It's really easy to approach people, and even if you don't approach you just end up meeting people on journeys, at guesthouses, doing activities etc.

Looking back I think I could have had a ridiculous amount of action if I had read Jugglers ebooks before and knew how to escalate a bit. I was always in conversations with girls who I could sense were interested, but I just kept talking about platonic stuff and going nowhere.

I'm still pretty much a beginner, but I think even with my beginner skill level I'll do pretty well. I'm going to be in Bangkok from the 8th April so if anyone is passing through and fancies hitting Khao San Road to meet some backpackers then let me know. I'm planning to go out more or less every night so that hopefully I can really bring about the change I want.
