The concept of borders and physically crossing them is quite fascinating for me always. The mostly hassle free crossing of borders that you can experience in Europe has resulted in some memorable experiences for me. These new experiences are a fun new Kulcha Shock that you experience when you come from a huge country where the physical border crossing experience across countries is a novelty.
