Turks & Caicos :D .... Miami Customs :/ heads up

Hey Everybody,

I was so lucky as to get a grand opportunity to go to the Turks & Caicos islands over the weekend! It was the most Beautiful Place I have ever seen!



The plane ride was long but worth it...



The beaches were Amazing! with warm soft white sand, and when you go out you find the most beautiful Conch sea shell's, which are also a common treat of the land. You can eat the muscle inside that inhabit the shells. I got a chance to try some in the raw form and fried, it was delicious!



I got to see Prince's House in my sight seeing with my Client whom lives there. It was HUGE, but there are lots of mansions built there! Everything has to be imported though from food to building materials and Machinery. It is very expensive to build and buy to live there, the Population is very small compared to America. They don't have any stop lights! Lots of roads are unpaved so the rides are bumpy, and they drive on the wrong side of the road .



They have Lots of resorts and they are the Biggest business on the Island. I stayed in one that had a beautiful view.




Now Everything went smoothly until I went back to America and Finally had to go through Customs...

You have to fill out a form and tell them why you went. After standing in a crowd of a line, I got Interrogated by Customs because of the large amount of Cash I had on me. The form says you don't have to report cash unless it is over 10k, so I did not report any cash on me.

I guess they saw it in the scanner thingy and apparently it was a problem. I got questioned to no end. "Who bought your plane Ticket?" "When did you book it?" "How come you only stayed 2 days?" "Where did you get this Money?" "What do you do for a living?" "Who do you know in Turks & Caicos?" and on and on and on....

When I answered the questions I of course wasn't about to say I am an escort and I went down to see a client, so I tried to lie and say I had a real job, and this was just an opportunity a friend offered me that I met in Dallas, and then they said they were going to call my job to verify! So I said I just got fired actually, and my friend gave me the money, and so on and so on. It was a real mess, it really was.

I became very frazzled and upset because I felt as though I was not going to get back in the country or something not to mention I had another flight to catch back to Dallas, I did not understand what the problem was! I am an American Citizen and I thought I had the right to go where ever I wanted to go and come back so long as I brought nothing illegal back with me.

So anyways, long story short, I guess there was a shift change, and the officer handling me whom was a real ******* lol, gave me over to another guy, who was a tad bit nicer but I guess they told him what had happened with the original questioning.

So he came right out and asked me, "Are you with some kind of escort agency or something?"... I finally admitted "Yes". He said "oh ok", to my relief. He asked again "Are you an Agency or what?"
I said, "No, I am independent Escort." Just like that.

The customs officer commended me on the lump sum and even proceeded to ask me where I advertise lol, which I simply replied "online" , and I told him I was so frazzled If I knew this was going to happen I would not even want to leave the country anymore! lol and he was like "Yea for that money, you would do it again ! lol

I was relieved!

He told me, "We don't care what you do over there we are just trying to make sure you are not smuggling drugs or smuggling money in, we are not here to call the IRS on you about tax free money". I understood, and was finally set free.

And now I'm back at home to all of you!

So ladies if you ever go out the country Be prepared you might get questioned, but know it's Ok apparently to tell them you are an escort lol.

Another Mya threAd that belongs in the Sandbox...Lol

I frequent the Caribbean a lot and there is nothing like the crystal clear ocean water that you can see forty or fifty foot deep through. It's wonderful to sailboat in that area...I would live in the Caribbean, especially the US Virgin Islands, being USA provinces and laws, but it's in Hurricane Alley.

Actaully manslut I wanted to share the information about actually being able to admit you are an escort to customs. How is this an Ad? I don't think this would fit in with the Ad section.

My only complaint here is that there aren't any bikini or topless photos.

Glad you had a nice trip. Wish I could have been the lucky guy!
OOPS....(double posted)

Sorry!
see below

Mya,
I appreciate your detail in explaining your story....but it WAS a long read to get to the point :-/
LOVE The pics.....and I hope you a had a fabulous time!

I was in Turks and Caicos just a year ago.
Your Villa actually looks a lot like the one we were in! Isn't that funny!
It totally rocked....and man did we have a good time.
Cigars and Wine never stopped !!!!!

I don't know if you met Doug that owns the scuba dive store...and he also owns two restaurants. He's quite the CUTIE !!!
Giiiirl...let's PM and reminisce!

All in all....the point here is ...... DO NOT ADMIT YOUR AN ESCORT! Create a "business name" for yourself.....and get some business cards from Vistaprint (a box for $10). Say you are a consultant....say you provide accounting services.....say whatever, but ALWAYS have that backup. Be careful, YOU MIGHT COULD WIND UP in BIG TROUBLE some day telling authorities you are an escort.
As long as you've got something to show (like a business card stating a legit occupation)....they don't usually question you.

My luggage got searched 3 times before I left that airport. It was frustrating. BUT, after they realized I was not smuggling anything, I was good to go.
That airport (that little tiny airport)...was quite a scene. Makes you appreciate DFW for sure!

Hugs babe!

Mya thanks for the visuals. I found this threAD to be informative Torre has a good point.

But I also thought about Eros and how they say it is legal to be an escort, and they make sure you never put anything implying that anything but time is being compensated for. Which it is.

It was a nice read wherever it belongs. Enjoyed the pictures too. Originally Posted by Dittychaser

Yes Torre, I saw that place but did not go in.

I have never been out of the country before. So I was not expecting to be questioned in that manner.
When I fly within the US they never question me like that. But flying out of the United States and Flying within are two totally different ball games.

I will know to have my lie straight should I ever do it again. I will probably do a wire transfer instead of cash. But remember I never told them I was an escort, they figured that out themselves. Some guy buys you a ticket, youre traveling by yourself, and come back home with a bank roll... lol riiiiiiigghhht.

I don't think I will be trying to leave the country anytime soon, I have it under my belt now... I'm not a big traveler like that anyways.
Glad you made it back Mya! That said, watch a few episodes of "Locked up Abroad!" What you described was very close to how most episodes start! A friend offers someone cash to take a fabulous trip and all they have to do is bring back a suitcase! . Either way, dont let this sour you on international travel!

I will have to check out that show lol, it seems thats what they thought. They kept asking me Did i pack my suitcase myself, and is everything in it mine... I'm like YES YES YES lol

Miami International Customs is particularly sensitive for obvious reasons. I've gone through Customs there numerous times (from Spain, Bahamas, South America), and the drug sniffing dogs are always in full effect.

I think you did the right thing about coming clean. You admitted to bring an escort, a companion, not to explicitly fucking for money. Customs and TSA are hardly worried about that. Drugs and money laundering? Yes.

Some bullshit lying story is likely to cause far more problems than it solves. These guys aren't idiots. They'll start asking who you consulted with, why payment was in cash, not by check on a business account, etc. just say visiting a very generous gentleman who compensated you for your time. They can look and take a hint.

I like your advice TushHog lol !

Yours too Silvio!

Next time i get the opportunity i will know what to expect. I havent answered that many questions since i have been grown! haha
