My New Favorite Show...Locked Up Abroad
Anybody else enjoy this show?
Where else can you find a couple enjoying their anniversary in a resort in the Philipines only to be captured by a Philipino Muslim Terrorist group, only to be held captive for years? Or...a British teenager living w/ his Dad in Kuwait partying it up, getting busted for selling hash, which has a sentence of 25 years or death by hanging, only to escape when IRAQ invaded Kuwait after spending 2 1/2 years in jail. Makes me think twice about traveling. |

Re: My New Favorite Show...Locked Up Abroad
Sounds interesting. What channel is it on.
The important thing, know the laws of the land when you travel. I don't have pity for someone selling drugs in a country that has stiff penalties for it.

Re: My New Favorite Show...Locked Up Abroad
Greetings from Thailand. It's pretty hard to go to jail here because everything fun is legal.

Re: My New Favorite Show...Locked Up Abroad
Awesome show. The one about the gold smugglers in Nepal was the one that got me hooked.

Re: My New Favorite Show...Locked Up Abroad
Unfortunately, doesn't seem to be in my plans, DJnemo. I actually got accepted to grad school, so that's going to take up the time I had planned to spend over there. Had I started school a bit earlier I'd definitely consider it, but right now I'm too old, I need to start a career soon.
