Just cruising the big scary.....

Been fairly quite since the election is over.

Crotchlurking again?

Not right now. I was typing a couple of letters and then was reading on bookface and now Grey's Anatomy is on....

I almost just stabbed my leg, that was exciting and probably not smart.

Your son still in the same location?

Evening MrsG, CM.

 

[churchmouse]

French guy...

 

[mom45]

Your son still in the same location?

Evening MrsG, CM.

Facebook says he is in Budapest yet. I don't think he can stay there very long as he is already a couple days over the 90 days he is allowed on his passport...not sure where he has to go to next, but without a visa he is limited to 90 days or something. I don't know how all that works.

I hope he doesn't get in trouble because of that.
I know they will deport your ass if you get one day above the 90 days in the US.

Has he already stayed that long in Hungary? I thought he just got there a few days ago.

I don't fully understand how it works. He is counting from when he first arrived in Iceland because they are all part of the same area or something. I don't quite know what the borders are I guess. He has been in Iceland, Germany, Switzerland, France, Austria, Italy, Hungary, Czech Republic....might have missed one or two but I think those are all so far.

I really envy him that he can do that. I would give my left nut to do something like that

I do too, but I hope he is interpreting the rules correctly regarding his passport and how long he can be in each place.

me too, I would hate for something like that to end it all

 

[mom45]

Agreed. He is having quite an experience.

 

[MrsGungho]

Agreed. He is having quite an experience.

once in a lifetime.

oh to be young again

 

[mom45]

once in a lifetime.

oh to be young again

He and I are almost the same age.

 

[MrsGungho]

He and I are almost the same age.

I can be young again.

I don't feel old

They are all part of Schengen Area.
But if he gets his passport stamped when entering and leaving each country he should get a 90 day limit in each country I believe.
It's complicate because some of those countries like Iceland are not part of the European Union but some are, yet all are following the Schengen treaty.
Once you enter one of those 26 countries there's no passport control anymore to go from one to another with some exeptions.
Like France who's closed its borders (meaning they now control passports) with the state of emergency following last year's Paris attacks.

I remember him saying something about Schengen something or other so that sounds familiar.

I'm reading about it, it's complicate.

As a third-country national he has less otpion than someone with a EU citizenship traveling to another EU country.
