    Doha, Qatar for me. 43°C dry heat, * all to do or see, just a miserable soulless city.

    Philadelphia, for a couple of blocks around the historic centre it is beautiful and clean, after that it is full of poverty and desolation, just one big toilet.

    Coincidentally it was watching a video of a * part of Philadelphia that prompted this thread. :giggle1:

    So much poverty out of the immediate city centre, like many places where the heavy industries die and the place goes downhill, such a shame.

    It's a toss up between Paris and Vigo in Spain. Paris because it has some of the rudest people I've ever came across and Vigo as it was just soulless.

    Dubai. Hated it. Know a lot of people love the place but couldn't wait to leave. Not my cup of tea at all.

    LA is a dump. A lot of places Stateside are actually. Some of the worst neighbourhoods I’ve seen there have been within so called affluent cities.

    Haven’t been anywhere I’ve really hated in Europe or Asia. I was in Manchester a couple of weeks back. Not abroad I know, but an absolute shithole.

    Its one of the most soulless places I’ve ever been. I didn’t hate it, but there’s absolutely nothing that would tempt be back.
