Hello all, this is me giving back to this wonderful thread.
I spent so much time refreshing here because of the fear instilled in me as a first time traveller to the US.

But erm...i've always been a rebel. I did everything called a taboo for a first timer.
I packed all sorts for my cousin whom I'm visiting ( crayfish, ground pepper, egusi, ogbono, crayfish, pepper soup ingredients, stock fish, garri) I brought some African prints for her family as well. In short, I came with 2 big bags (40kg altogether) and one hand luggage.

I read a lot of negative reviews about Air Maroc but the rebel in me still went ahead to book a flight on their website. Paid at their office a sum of 364k (Good deal, I must tell).
Thursday , 18th of May, I headed to MMIA at about 3.30am. Flight was slated for 6.30am. Very smooth journey to Casablanca, 4hrs 30mins opposing the 4hrs 50mins stipulated time on my ticket.

With 5hrs layover, I was able to get a comfortable sofa to spread my body and sleep got me. I was woken up with a 'delicious' meal...chai. Their food is not it at all. I took snacks and soda to console my belly.

Fast forward, my journey to IAD (Washington Dulles airport) was coool. About 8hrs.

Straight to the POE.
It was a long one but the line started moving fast when some of us were directed to the self service machine. Some people found it difficult to use and went back to the long queue.
I quickly helped myself with it and got my print out. Straight to the guy on No 23 point. I arranged my cosmetic smile and...

CBP: Hi, can I have your passport and the print out? I won't be needing that (referring to the useless landing card given to us on board ) how long are you staying?

Me: just 3 weeks

CPB: What food items are you carrying? ( I declared I have food items on the self service machine)

Me: dry fish, ogbono, crayfish, ground egusi, pepp...

CPB: okay okay, that's fine. ( stamps my passport) Enjoy your stay.
Me: Thanks dear grin...

I come dey follow people going for secondary inspection, lol. The CBP guy with them just smiled at me and said " hi beautiful, you following the wrong people hun. Unless you wanna go back to Africa now" .
Ehn! If you see as I do usain bolt reverse. Hehehe.

Reporting live from Maryland.
Thanks people.

I was just confused he asked why I wanted to go alone, I was like, why not? Can't somebody enjoy alone?
This holiday means alot to me. I have not had the opportunity to go for a vacation since 2014 because of my job.

This opportunity came because my workaholic boss decides to go on a vacation. A very good time for me to travel and spoil myself a lil. Its painful oh.

You know, I lost a friend of mine few weeks ago and after like 2 days of her demise, her family members couldn't wait, they started scouting for how to get her atm pin. We were really close, so, 2 of her siblings called me to ask if I knew the pin, like seriously?

This babe worked herself off and saved so much without spending lavishly...this actually inspired me to go for vacation, can't come and die and some useless people will now start eating from where they never sowed...

Can i re-apply? Or i should try UK? I must do sha go for vacation...lols


So I finally got my visa approved last week. Transcripts coming thra...
But how do I get cheap tickets. The ones I'm seeing online can drain life savings fa. Epp this girl pepo.

Sorry!
No ties.
And you didn't convince the VO about your purpose of travel. Only u going to Disney. And you stuttered, meaning you really didn't have any travel plans.
Next time, be prepared
