I'm not going anywhere.
You made a pretty grim image. I'll have nightmares, tonight.

No country is worth this. And even North Korea, someone shared here some time ago, is not that invasive. They do give you a nanny to escort you around, you can go everywhere, you can't take pictures or film but they don't care about what you do in your country.
Visiting family of their current partner. And as the tickets were paid for by the family living there, there is an added feeling of obligation, but the main drive is the eagerness to travel abroad, the opportunity. Their words, not mine.
I'm writing from Portugal. Not really a country on the radar for political upheaval.
I had a dog that enjoyed sitting in the driver seat when I was out of the car. Used to mess with pooch, saying he should remember he had his licensed revoked because he had been caught driving drunk. Good times.
Nothing to add on what you said.
I was just mentioning that as well. What could be the reception of someone with no social presence and no electronics upon arriving? I'd refuse giving details of relatives as well.
Political ties may be of some concern, although the person is not directly active.
I am not going anywhere.
But you made me wonder. What would be the reaction if someone went there and not carried a cellphone nor any other electronic equipment? And now I'm thinking about my own personal use of it. I can survive without internet for long bouts and my most important credentials are commited to memory, along with important numbers.
What could happen if someone just arrived at the gates with two book, a notebook and perhaps a couple of mechanical pencils and a pen?
Enough internet for me today. I'm going to have a stern conversation with my own dogs regarding gun safety.
I can feel this to an uncomfortable level.
Mind explaining this part, please?
