Travel Documents

Many of us look forward to going on vacation during the summer seasons, and we may choose to do so with family, friends and sometimes even by ourselves.  Whether we choose to go close to our home or far away from it, it is usually filled with wonderful memories that tend to stay with us for a very long time.

However, sometimes we may miss out on taking this trip because we would have realized a little too late that our travel documents were not in order.
Therefore, if this is one of our plans for the summer, now would be a good time to check and ensure that our travel documents are in order.
We could make sure that our passport is valid for at least six months from our departure date, and if we need a visa to enter a particular country, we have it or would be getting it in time. 
Additionally, if we are a permanent resident of a country and not a citizen, we should ensure that the relevant “papers” to re-enter the country are in order.  Yes, and other things along this line.

Andorra – A Shared Country

Andorra is sandwiched between France and Spain, and it is co-governed by the President of France and the Bishop of Urgell, who is in Spain.  Although Andorra has accommodations for a few helicopters, there are no airports here.  In fact, its closest airports are in France and Spain.  Therefore, those desiring to visit this country must travel through France or Spain and then travel by land, to get here. Perhaps due to sharing governmental powers, this country also shares the postal system.  France’s post boxes in this country are yellow, while Spain’s are red.
