I continue my trip to Italy. How safe to bring a little with me.

Beware ! depends the route you take i got the direct from central to Milan going through Switzerland and thats where the shit hit the fan as swiss aint european union you still do border checks which include dogs ! i got busted with a few grams ! i speak a wee bit italian so when i was takin off the train i explained it was personal ! the guy holds up the bag of hash and said "this no problem" but with the bag of weed "this you are in big trouble" ultimately i was giving a stiff talking to and sent on my way ! thank fuck they never found the 1/2 oz in my shorts pocket in my case ! which they did search i dont know if it would be as bad on the route through paris trhough ?

going through germany might not be a smart idea...

Heard Italy is one of the worst for getting busted.

no, its germany, bayern (bavaria) especially

might be true, but what i meant is that it is veeeeery likely to get busted in germany at the border to the netherlands.

Sorry, but it's not true. The Dutch-German border is as easy as the North-South Dakota border.
EDIT: Both EU

ok. if you say so.

what is meant by "a little"?

however much it is actually, it will only be a couple of smokes, so in reality not very much

if you do not carry, then in reality you will not be missing very much

if you do carry and you do not get stopped, then you have a couple of smokes, in reality not very much

if you do carry and you do get stopped, you might be in trouble or you might just be sent on your way maybe with a fine of just a talking-to

however, if someone decides they want you to give you trouble, then they can give you whatever trouble they want, and maybe big trouble

imho for a couple of smokes it is just not worth the risk

I have driven and taken the train between Amsterdam and Frankfurt/Dusseldorf many times. I have never had any problems in a car. Every train that I have been on has been searched with dogs just after going over the border to Germany.

hmkay, weird then. usually they do really good in bustin ^^

I'm guessing driving would be your best bet

I never experienced dogs on the Dutch German border only Swiss Italian !
