These are such arbitrary, frustrating details that make no sense. I’m dead at handwritten letter. But I’m so glad you made it through!!!

So legitimately Africa has been my dream destination for about 15 years now, but now after all this ordeal that you’ve been through, I have no desire to go

Will you do a video on why you decided to wait it out instead of cycling around (you had mentioned another route in another video)?

It’s so clearly just a shakedown - if only they didn’t veil it behind administrative language/bureaucracy everyone could at least save a lot of time and stress 😩

So frustrating. Glad you are past this! Do you feel like you were targeted for being American or do you get a sense that this happens to others as well? Also over $1600?? that’s awful, what if you were able to pay that?! What would happen? Safe travels! Look forward to watching you make it to 🇿🇦

Thank you for your patience for telling us this story. I have some of my own experience of this kind of perhaps corrupt bureaucracy- Well done for making it through and hopefully this will get easier for others in time!

Positively Kafkaesque! But the $$ finally lifted you out of the bureaucratic maze. I found this fascinating, and I’m grateful that you took the time to explain it all.

The whole story is really horrifying. I'm glad you found a solution and a helpful friend in DRC. I don't know what to say about the total amount - it's so much, but so glad there was an amount to resolve the situation. Thank you for sharing the story 💜
