I just watched your video and I hear you. Different place, same story. It sucks being stuck in a place where you feel not comfortable. I understand your wife. Tell her she shouldn't give up even though I know exactly how hard it is to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
The concept of borders, boundaries and governments telling you what to do and what not is outdated to me. It is one planet, mother nature didn't draw imaginary borders on the planet. And no one should hinder anyone from going somewhere else...I don't get it. Visas, passports...make one passport for the entire world declaring one is human and can go wherever he likes on this planet.
Not saying one shouldn't follow certain social rules for a peaceful living.
Also the outdated concept of marriage. Why can't you just be together and that is it?
If something would happen to José here in Germany I wouldn't get notified and the other way around. Because we are not married I would not be allowed to visit him in hospital or get notified in case of emergency. I don't understand why. We are together because we choose to, that should be enough.
If anyone of us would end up in hospital because of corona neither one of us would know. We wouldn't see the other again without knowing what happened. That is just not right these days.
Ahhh I could go on and on..but in the end I just wanted to let you know that I understand your situation and I feel with you. Hang in there!
All this red tape is what we call "civilized" too, always found that ironic. I am definitely an ethical person, but I don't hesitate to break any laws I find unethical, of course after weighing the chances of getting caught. I just wish we could have 4 matching passports and documents to show we are a legit family, and hopefully we can make this happen before the girls turn 18.
It's crazy how all these things affect everything from insurance to who you can see in the hospital, or who can transit what airport, all ridiculous to me. Thanks for joining in on my rant, I feel less crazy now. I also feel your mutual frustration, but I can also feel the positive vibes and love too. If all goes well we'll be in Albania before long.
