I just received my German residence visa at the beginning of this month, and I want to celebrate by debunking six myths of travel. Once I believed I could never travel because of things I'd been told. Turns out people are the number one spreader of myths. Some research (and travel) have taught me that …
I first applied for my passport about three years ago, expecting to be denied. That's not to say I didn't plan to ever get my passport. I just thought it was a worthless pursuit. At this point in my life, I was ready to be done with the identity of "not existing" and simply apply …

Primarily, I am writing for: Those without social security numbers, state birth certificates, or other government documents.
