Very little marketing, not much word of mouth. I always got this sense that it came out at the wrong time. It was released in 2021 when so many of us were looking for something less bleak. Bleak though it was, I…

Got a very suspicious questioning from Canadian border patrol, is this normal? I live in Boston and decided this weekend that I wanted to visit Montreal. I don’t have a lot of money or time off, so after a little research I decided to go with what was really the only affordable/feasible option – take the overnight bus there, sightsee all day, then take the overnight bus back. I knew it would be rough, but in my experience …

Got a traffic ticket from Italy 9 months later. Is it legit? I drove around Amalfi Coast last January in a rented car. The other day, I got a ticket in the mail (in USA). Not 100% sure that it’s legit, or someone is trying to scam me. But the dates mentioned do match up with when I was there. The ticket says I drove on the road without authorization. Which is possible, though I wasn’t aware that one need…
