What happened
I assumed the visa was a formality and booked flights and hotels for a family of four. The visa took eleven weeks. We lost everything except the flights.
What it cost me
€4,100
Time lost
3 weeks
Emotional cost
Humiliating
What I learned
Book the paperwork before you book the plane. Optimism is not a travel document.
