Traveling

So, with the anniversary of the fall of the Berlin wall coming in a few days, I just got to thinking. Are there places that you visited that were in any conflict or had serious restrictions? Like East Germany with the wall, North Korea with the separation, etc. What were your thoughts when you experienced it first hand for the first time?

On topic, I've never been anywhere that had travel restrictions or 'conflict' as such, but South Africa was a bit of an eye-opener. I guess you could say they had travel restrictions of sorts though, ie. don't travel anywhere after dark, or you'll be killed/raped/worse. They don't stop at most red lights at night time, because of car-jackings, they just slow down, look both ways and keep going

Edit: That was in Jo'burg and Durban though. It's better down in Cape Town.

I'm not surprised you've inquired. Just make sure you get your travel insurance and immunisations in order beforehand. I learnt that the hard way.

I heard the same thing from 2 former coworkers, and my brother in-law's boss.

My bf and I were hanging out with my dad a few weeks ago and we drank quite a bit and my dad always opens up about his past when he drinks and he told us a story about his first time "on the other side" aka in West Germany - his first time in a communist-free zone:

I think he said it was around 1978.
He went with his cousin Basia (my godmother) and her husband Wlodek. He was absolutely amazed at all that he saw. Stores that had everything you could imagine, as opposed to the meagrely stocked depressing stores back home. He approached a lot of sales people asking "how much am I allowed to buy?" and they laughed and answered "as much as you want"

Anyway, Wlodek was always obssessed with cars and car mechanics and his 4-year-old son was already apparently picking that up as well. He found something in one of the stores that he had never even imagined to have existed: a remote-control car. He was completely baffled, having never seen anything like that before. He was so excited to bring it home to his son - it was one of several things they bought that they had never seen before (along with bulk amounts of food and clothing). Anyway, when they were crossing back into East Germany, the guards absolutely ransacked their car, searching everything. They let everything in with the exception of this remote-control car. The guard looked at it like "WTF is this? You can't bring this into our country. Get rid of it, or we will get rid of it for you"

My uncle Wlodek was so pissed because he really wanted his son to have this incredible toy. So they drove a few miles back from the border and he took apart the toy, putting one piece here, one piece there, hiding little pieces of it in clothes pockets and such.

They drove back to the border and got the same guard, and I guess he didn't search their car as intently because they got through with everything. Once back home, my uncle was able to put the remote-control car back together and apparently it worked perfectly.


(disclaimer: I totally didn't do this story justice. My dad is an amazing story-teller and his version was captivating beyond belief)

I was in Kenya during the unrest following the 2008 election, but I can't say that I saw anything ostensibly related to it in my time there.

That is crazy. With this whole anniversary of the fall, I want to visit North Korea. Just to experience it for myself. That way if/when they reunify while I am alive, I can visit later to see how it has changed.

Were you there during the elections?
