THC gummies in Europe / customs
Flying to Europe (Romania) in a few days. Take a 5 or 10mg thc gummy every night before bed. It has really helped me sleep so much better.
We are going to be gone for nearly three weeks, and I am worried that without them, I will be a crabby tired zombie the whole time.
Theoretically, cannabis is illegal in Romania, our point of entry into Europe is Munich.
Would you try to go without, take them disguised in a gummy vitamin bottle, or just take them 8n their normal packaging (carryon for both the take them options). Don’t want the midnight express treatment unless I actually get to carry through with Brad Davis instead of the BS in that movie’s shower scene, I suspect the likelihood of any real issues are minimal, but that may be wishful thinking,
Any experience? Thanks

Didn’t some celeb get arrested trying to take a joint out of Amsterdam? It’s a risk even in legal countries let alone shitholes

Don't even think about it, OP. Especially not Eastern Europe.

Don't try it.
Get a prescription medication or something OTC for sleep — without ingredients illegal in your destination.

Melatonin, probably 50mg or more. Don't risk it disguised with your other meds unless they don't smell like weed at all

You're going to be thrown into prison, whereupon you will be raped early and often. And then the Trump regime will request your transfer to Guantanamo.
Don't even thing about it, not even for a second. Just get fucking melatonin like a normal person.

I definitely would not transport it on a plane from the US. People forget that it is actually illegal in the US as well. Some states have made it "legal", but the Supremacy Clause of the US Constitution states that federal laws are the supreme law of the land. The DEA has simply opted not to enforce it.
THC is legal in Germany so you can buy it there. Transporting it in small quantities via train, car or bus to Romania would pose very little risk. They don't have security checks like they do at airports and since both Germany and Romania (and the countries in between) are all part of the Schengen Zone, there is no passport control or customs check.

If you are going to be in Germany for a few days, you could attempt to get a prescription for THC. The prescription would be valid in Romania as they will honor a prescription written by an EU physician (not a US physician). That said, if you will be traveling by land between Germany and Romania, it is highly unlikely that you would be stopped/searched anyway. However, you could be in major trouble if you were somehow caught. I have traveled extensively in Romania several times and traveled between Bulgaria, Romania and Hungary by rental car. There are no longer any border formalities. It's like driving from Georgia to Florida to Alabama.

You're fucked, OP. You should have tapered off in the weeks leading up to your trip. You'll have to buy a legal sleep aid in Romania or deal with insomnia while you're on vacation. I used to be a huge stoner.

Bad idea OP. And it's not just the fact you are traveling internationally. You could get arrested for transporting gummies from your state where cannabis is legal to a state where it's not.

Go to your dispensary and get some THC pills. The tablets are unidentifiable /odourless and you can put them into a prescription bottle. There’s no way anyone would be able to detect why they are without a lab analysis.

If you have square shaped thc gummies I have found a bag of gummy starbursts candy are the same size/shape going through any machines. I have tucked 4 or 5 10mgs in and sealed it up without issue. Do not try to bring more than 5 they can start to smell a little. If you do thc mints try and find a tin of mints that matches the shape of the mints and mix them together. Again don't go overboard. I have done this to Spain, Mexico & UK. Once I land I put them on my person in case of a secondary bag check.

You can try to get a prescription from an EU doctor, but please do your due diligence to see if it will be honored in places like Romania. You are on this website so I assume you are gay and an American. Hence, they may be happy to take your money but other than that you can expect no indulgences from the authorities.

Here's what you do. Pack them into condoms, swallow, then regurgitate.
Or just buy some there. It's not like it's a banana island.

Just go to some Bohemian cafe in Bucharest and ask the nearest scruffy-faced young dude hippie where to score some weed. Every city in Europe has one and always works like a charm!

OP here. You have all scared me straight. I went and got a CBD tincture - not as effective, but it will have to do, and as far as I can tell, fully legal. We are only starting in Romania (and just connecting in Munich, not spending time there).. Spending a few upfront days there and then doing a cruise on the lower Danube, passing through Bulgaria, Serbia, Croatia, and finishing in Budapest. While I would like to think this was going to be some Kristen Bjorn- style fantasy, I am an elder gay (nearly 55) and will still be among the youngest on the cruise. Hopefully I will still manage to sleep. May take a few zzzquill along too. Probably for the best to try to get off the thc for a few weeks.

People can't, but sniffer dogs can.
Which is how people get caught with pot in foreign airports and jailed.

Have you tried L-theanine for sleep, OP?
I have terrible insomnia, and it really helps me.

Going through Serbia could be an issue, too. It is not EU or Schengen Zone which means you will have to clear customs/border control going into and out of Serbia. Hungary has a zero tolerance policy for THC containing products. You will see so called head shops in Budapest, but they only sell CBD and kratom. I thought it was odd that they were OK with kratom and not THC. Cannabis is illegal in Bulgaria and Serbia even for medical use. Perhaps you can get your doctor to prescribe zolpidem (Ambien) or another hypnotic to have with you in case you really can't sleep.

Euros have weird attitude re: substances. They villify marijuana, and so instead, when they want to 'dabble' they go straight to hard shit, i.e. coke, molly. Well, I suppose those people need uppers more than they need downers.

R27 that may be, but smart choices and itinerary can really mitigate that risk.

Closest tip I have is try to find thc breath strips. I bought delta 8 ones awhile back and they fit in the same container as the regular ones just have to make sure no color. These were mint chocolate so they looked like wisps.

Those sniffer beagles at international airports are no chumps. I’ve seen three times people getting nabbed by one of them. I’m quite sure they can smell through a Starburst wrapper or a Listerine Strips package. You don’t want to go be in a Romanian jail. That’s where we renditioned al Qaeda people after we weren’t allowed to waterboard them anymore stateside.

Ambien is legal, cheap, and pharmaceutically consistent. Can't you take that while in Europe?
