Australia has ramped up its travel warnings for the USA three times since April
Australia's travel advice for the US has toughened three times since April
I have skin in this game
I regularly travel to the US to see my woman. We're working on her visa to get her out of the shithole that is the US, but it's a process, and it's not quick
I'm lucky enough that I fly into a place where people just go to have a good time. I simply say "I'm here to let my hair down" when I fly in. The last customs officer couldn't have cared less if he'd tried
I have no Facebook, no Twitter, no instagram, LinkedIn or anything like that
If you google me, nothing whatsoever comes up
But I'm never complacent or a dick, no matter how things may be going at the airport. Always smiling and disarming, giving nobody any reason to take their bad day out on me
I've been through this process of having a partner in another country and waiting forever for visas et cetera.
I met her 12 years ago and she got her citizenship last year.
It's a pretty awful process and you have my sympathies.
I'm in the US and my daughter's boyfriend is in London. He has visited a few times and they grill him for awhile, but they let him in. They have done this in the past though too. Sme friends and I were searched and questioned for several hours just coming back from Canada one time, and we were all citizens. That was in the '90s.
Thanks,
That means a lot
We're getting there. We're waiting on a couple of things to fall into place, but it's going to happen
We can get her here, then start work on the path to citizenship
It's going to take a little time, and some work, but she's worth it
