I’ve read about visiting the DPRK; apparently they won’t stamp your passport because they know it’ll cause you problems when you leave (back to the states), and for non-Americans, they don’t get their passports stamped so they can visit the US without issues; at least I think this was the case, as I’m sure I read about that on a website dedicated to arranging tourist visits to the DPRK.
Wait, those stamps actually effect travel? I thought they were like cute little “hey, you made it!” markers. Like a collection or something, I didn’t think you’d be penalized for having a stamp from a “bad” country…
I will admit I don’t travel much, like, at all so I’ve never really experienced this. I’ve been questioned once before but I think the guy was just making conversation. I was visiting the states so maybe less suspicious than coming back from a non-friendly nation…

AFAIK certain countries, like Indonesia, raise an issue if you have Israel stamp. It should be expected that a place so hellbent on everyone following their arbitrary rules as USA would also cause issues if you have a stamp from “bad country”
I’m almost tempted to try
From everything I’ve read about DPRK, it kind of sounds like a time capsule of USSR in the 70s. Definitely should be worth visiting.
That is incredible. It makes me want to visit the DPRK one day even more.
Also holy shit lmao google is wild again
spojler
lol

As soon as I finally move to Russia and settle down, I’m planning on taking the trip there with my SO. It’s going to be great.
