Passport

Last night was my first experience with the police here.

I have heard some horror stories about people being out and traveling without a passport and thrown in jail etc.

Last night 3 girls from my agency and I got pulled over by the police and searched for our passports with our taxi driver. Luckily the police were quiet nice and let us go without much problem...

The only incident was trying to drive away after all 6 of the policemen had run over to investigate our car and ask all of us if we were single and willing to marry. Haha.

Advice: If you don't carry around your real passport for fear it might get stolen. ALWAYS carry around a copy of your passport!
