I hold the regional circles, which exist because so much of what gets said confidently online is only true in one country. Availability, cost, whether a pharmacist will speak to you, whether the thing is legal to import for personal use, what a doctor will say when you ask — all of it changes at the border.

So asia and eu are partly practical clearing houses and partly a relief. People arrive having been told for a year that a solution obviously exists, and find out it exists in Ohio. Being in a room where everyone shares your constraints is worth a lot.

Travel-and-holidays is the most cheerful circle I hold. Cool bags, airport security, thirteen-hour time differences and a fortnight of other people's cooking. We have collected a very large amount of hard-won detail and put the durable parts in a guide.

A word on sourcing, since it comes up in every regional circle: I will not help anybody import anything, and I will not pretend the question does not exist either. We have reference pages that say what members have reported and what cannot be verified, and I would rather people read something honest than something written by a seller.
