Tradicionaly, the "exchange  house" of the airport are clearly most expensive (the only exception of that i found in Tokyo), i cant believe they dont have another exchange house outside the airport.

 

In Colombia, i meet the most weird exchange house with a lonely little boy with 10/12 years old who attended to me.

As always, curious to know if any users outside the US celebrated Halloween, and what sort of activities there were :d

 

I was too lazy to dress up as anything, but I did pass out candy.

Here there are some celebrations of kids but its not very important, i remember when i was kid to celebrate it with another kids and the catolic priest "scolded" us for being with customs anhd asking for candys because it was a pagan/satanic celebration :wacko:

    • The problem of the Italian federation is that its system does not work and we cannot afford to lose talents like Colturi. Our slalom does not exist, whether among women or men. We are currently at a level below Croatia and Bulgaria in the men's category. There is no progress, in fact there is regression, because while Vinatzer often did not finish a few years ago, when he did finish he was able to be in the top. Now he either does not finish or is around 20th place, like now. In the women's category, the peak of our abilities is Peterlini, who regularly hovers around 20th place in the World Cup. If we cannot afford to invest more than Albania and that with the Winter Olympics in a year, then I think we can really dissolve our ski sector and focus on something else. If the federation is satisfied with such low levels, let them continue.

    • IMO the Italian federation was right in not giving to that financial and political blackmail - had they accepted it, plenty of more established athletes in snow sports could have asked for more under the threat of changing nationality. It's not like they had a sports almanac from the future saying that that 15yo girl would have won 5 olympic gold medals and 5 overall world cups.
    • Allez  He tried to pull this one lots of time and finally managed to go all the way.
    • Nonsense. Chamizo moved to Italy, married an Italian, he's still here after many years and was essentially banned from competing for Cuba. Colturi's tie to Albania is that the Albanian federation had invested a ton of money in her mother's business (élite and very costly academy for young skiers), and then gave her a role, and probably another big salary, as a director in exchange for the pomise of their first winter Olympic medal. A better comparison is to that archer who competed for Ivory Coast because her father had a big clothing business in the country.
    • I guess Stoch will retire in the end of 2025/2026 season.
