I'm not big on travel, because I'm poor and haven't been on trip-holidays since I was a small child, however, I'd like to visit a commie country during my lifetime. Anyone knows if there are any communist organized trips? I don't want to fund libs. Also, I'm very sad with how expensive flights to China are. I fear I'll never get to visit. :(

I've also learned my Chinese friend cannot even visit me without a visa and am sad. :( (she lives in EU)

There's no need for a tour group for China, Vietnam, and Laos. Clueless college grads go backpacking in Vietnam and Laos all the time without issue. China can be a little tricky without knowledge of Mandarin but if you spend a month or so learning travel phrases you'll be fine. You will need a tour group for the DPRK (can't go if you're a US citizen) and Cuba if you're a US citizen (US citizens can only go for "support of the Cuban People").

Flights to mainland China from the US and many other cringe countries are super expensive RN, but you can save on costs by flying into Hong Kong, Taiwan, or south Korea first and booking a separate flight to mainland China.

I’m so sorry but “cringe countries” is such a hilarious statement
