Im leaving my passport and $10K Oz with an Ex GF (one I know I can trust,with money and a passport, wouldnt leave my pets with her though)


Me thinks someone will be traveling legally while you sweat it out in some jail somewhere.


LOL she comes from a good family and has her own money, not even a slight concern that she wont come through if I need her

I think China-Russia would be easiest and safest as well but that kinda defeats the purpose, The India and Stans route is the most likely one Im thinking. Got 6 weeks to plan it all out

Will defo have a few hundred in palm greasing cash on me at all times but on the whole am gonna try and do it with what I can make on the way, I wont let myself starve or sleep on the street but Im not gonna walk around like a cashed up tourist.

Cheers

No. Worst case scenario...you rotting away for year after year in some back country jail, for no logical reason you can think of....dying there...your friends and family left to wonder what happened to you...forever. That is the worst case scenario...jmoho...


Well yeah there is that but anywhere backward enough to do that will accept "cash donations".

Doing any more than a few days in some smelly hole is as bad as it will get... unless I get tortured

Ive never heard of that before and Im guessing it would be about as helpful as being without a passport.

Its not just about travel, its about the experience of travelling without the passport thats the appealing part for me.
I dont know 1 person whos crossed a closed border without a PP let alone a dozen!!!!


i'll introduce you to my landscaper.

i had thought you didn't have passport, now i see what yer thinkin'.

what you are attempting reminded me of a subplot from the movie ...

The Hollywood Knights


an initiation ceremony involving four pledges who are left in Watts wearing nothing but the car tires they are left to carry,

Seriously, this is a bad idea.

You will have little or no access to medical care and good places to stay - most decent hotels require your passport info.

And frankly, you will probably end up in prison. You might be able to make it through one or two checkpoints on the route but you are not going to make it across Europe.

The first thing I'd ask myself as a border officer if presented with you is "why has this person got no ID at all", and if you told me you were on an adventure I'd have you interned in a holding camp for deportation straight away - you could be a terrorist for all I know.

Just get a passport and do it safely.

pay the people smugglers to transport you in the back of a truck and you will be taken overland and smuggled via calais across the channel. When caught say ; asylum - no passport' - they will send you to Lunar House in Croydon and you will get free housing, money and eventually a British passport.

If you want to do it 'legally' with no passport - good luck with that .. you aint gonna get far but by sea is your best option.

Ive got a passport, thats not the issue.

Medical care doesnt require a passport anywhere Ive ever been, not looking to stay in 5 star hotels I plan on roughing it in backpackers and B and Bs etc etc.

I wont be using checkpoints Ill be taking back roads and "smugglers routes", maybe a dodgy fishing boat or 2.

I will have ID and most importantly for most of the places Ill be going through, Ill have $$$
