It dawned on me that I was making the purchase, to travel with but had I considered what I could and couldn’t legally (and embarrassment level-wise) take with me? – No I hadn’t, so I had to think quickly and research!

First, I want to thank everyone who has been writing me with personal messages of their own. I woke up to an inbox that was full of hundreds of positive, well-written, and well-informed emails.

“You don’t need to see his identification.”
