The Man from a Different Universe

In the chronicles of unexplained mysteries, the story of the Taured Man stands out as a baffling and enigmatic tale that has puzzled minds for decades.

It all began in the mid-20th century when a well-dressed and confident Caucasian man arrived at Tokyo's Haneda Airport, eager to embark on his journey. However, it was at the airport's immigration desk that this ordinary-looking traveler would reveal an extraordinary claim that would forever shroud his identity in mystery. Upon being asked the routine question of his country of origin, the man, with unwavering conviction, declared that he hailed from a place called "Taured." To the bewilderment of the Japanese immigration authorities, there was no record of such a country. The traveler was asked to produce identification, and that's when the plot thickened. In his possession, the Taured Man held a plethora of official documents, each more puzzling than the last. A passport, driver's license, and a stack of business cards – all issued by the non-existent nation of Taured – were laid out before the astounded officials. The documents were meticulously crafted, bearing all the hallmarks of authenticity, complete with visas from multiple countries, hinting at a history of international travel. As if this weren't perplexing enough, there were other curious details that further fueled the mystery. The authorities, grappling with disbelief, questioned the man about his homeland. His unwavering response was that Taured had existed for a long time, situated in the border region between France and Spain. This contradiction, however, only deepened the enigma, as no such country appeared on any maps or records. It was as though the Taured Man was a visitor from an alternate dimension or an elaborate hoaxer.

The confusion escalated as the man was escorted to a hotel room, still under the vigilant gaze of Japanese immigration authorities. While they were determined to solve the riddle of his identity, they were left with more questions than answers. The next morning, an eerie and baffling development occurred – the Taured Man and all of his belongings, including the Taured documents, had vanished without a trace. There were no signs of forced entry or exit, leaving investigators and airport personnel dumbfounded. It was as if the enigmatic traveler had simply vanished into thin air.

The Fake Spaniard: Samuel Skornicki

His name was Santos Montero

Samuel Skornicki was a Jewish lawyer from Poland who became legal advisor to the Spanish Consul and saved hundreds of Jews and non-Jews from the Nazis.

Samuel was born in Poland in1899 to a family of secular intellectuals. He married Raizel Sliwinsky from Lodz, and they moved to Paris in 1923, where Samuel studied law and became a civil attorney. Their daughter Arlette later remembered, “My father wanted to live in France, the land of freedom and human rights.”

After the Germans occupied Paris in 1940, the Skornicki family moved to Toulouse. As the situation became more dangerous for Jews in France, Samuel and Raizel left Arnette with a Christian family where she would be safe.

Samuel had something everybody wanted – a valid passport and a visa to the United States, where his mother and siblings lived. Instead, Samuel chose to remain in France and help the resistance movement. In Toulouse, Samuel ran a textile factory and distributed anti-Nazi pamphlets and provided Jews with false documents. A master networker, Samuel made connections with important people in Toulouse.

He met with the Spanish Consul, who was overwhelmed with the amount of visa requests from Jews trying to leave France. With legal training and organizational skills, Samuel was well-positioned to help the Consul, and he was appointed legal advisor to the embassy in St. Etienne. Samuel and Raizel were given new identities as Spanish citizens: Santos and Rosa Montero. Neither one of them spoke any Spanish.

In 1942, the Consul returned to Spain and appointed Samuel/Santos as his replacement. Before leaving France, the Consul threw a lavish farewell party where the guests included top officials of the collaborationist Vichy Regime, German Army officers, and off-duty Gestapo storm troopers. The event featured an official swearing-in ceremony where “Santos Montero” was installed as acting Spanish Consul. The Nazis present didn’t realize they were celebrating the promotion of a Jew.

As the acting Consul, Samuel turned the Consulate into a center of the Resistance. He supervised the forging of documents and hiding of weapons, and provided refuge for Jews and members of the Resistance. Meanwhile, he was conducting diplomatic meetings with local Nazi officials, including Gestapo officers with lists of Jews scheduled for deportation on their desks. Samuel read the names upside down and memorized them so he could warn the people on the list.

Since Samuel didn’t speak Spanish, he relied on the Spanish Consulate staff to keep his secret. They were mostly Republican opponents of Spain’s ruler, the fascist Francisco Franco, who was allied with Hitler. As part of that alliance, Franco was sending thousands of Spanish citizens to Germany to provide labor. Samuel and his staff got exemptions for thousands of Spaniards.

In March 1944, the French Resistance attacked a German train near St. Etienne. Determined to catch the French perpetrators, German policemen conducted a house-to-house search. They reached the Spanish Consulate, and before they could even knock on the door Samuel burst out angrily and kicked a German police sergeant! He shouted at them, “Get out of here! I am the Spanish Consul!” The policemen were embarrassed and quickly left. That night, the German Police Chief of St. Etienne visited the Spanish Consulate to apologize in person, and to give Samuel a gun for protection against the dangerous Resistance. Samuel gave the gun to the fighters who’d attacked the train – and were hiding in his cellar!

France was liberated in 1944, and the Skornickis returned to Paris. Since he’d hosted Nazis at the Spanish Consulate, Samuel was suspected of being a collaborator, but people he’d saved wrote letters of thanks proving that he’d been a hero rather than a villain. One of the letters, by Itzkin Rubin, who was hidden in the Consulate, read, “How can I express my gratitude, and the gratitude of my family, for all we owe you? You didn’t hesitate to risk your life in order to save ours. Knowing that we were being hunted by the Gestapo and the (French) Militia, you hid us in your home in those pivotal months before the liberation. If we are fortunate enough to live in peace and to be free, it is thanks to your heroic goodness and your courage. At a time when so many of our friends were tormented or died in terrible physical and emotional suffering, while so many children were separated from their parents, I am blessed to be surrounded by my whole family.”

For saving hundreds of lives after boldly taking on a fake identity, we honor Samuel Sknornicki as this week’s Thursday Hero.

📢Starting from February 9, China and Singapore will exempt each other from visas

On January 25, representatives from the government of the People's Republic of China and the government of the Republic of Singapore signed the 'Agreement between the Government of the People's Republic of China and the Government of the Republic of Singapore on Mutual Visa Exemption for Ordinary Passport Holders' in Beijing. The agreement will officially enter into force on February 9, 2024 (Lunar New Year’s Eve).

As of January 25, China has concluded mutual visa exemption agreements covering different passport types with 157 countries, and has reached agreements or arrangements with 44 countries to simplify visa procedures. Comprehensive mutual visa exemption has been achieved with 22 countries including Singapore, Maldives and Kazakhstan.

I sometimes interpret for a local NGO. Lately I am getting more interpretations than ever before and most of them are Russian LGBT people looking for asylum, for obvious reasons. There has been a boom in Russians coming to Spain in the past month and a half, or at least, for them to come to my region.

And they come to my region, which is one of the most isolated and less touristic regions of all Spain. They look online and they see that Spain is a good place for LGBT people, but they also find that it is easier to get international protection in this very rural and hard to reach region than in other bigger places. And they don't speak the language but they come here specifically.

This is a big surprise to me because before interpreting for gay Russians, I interpreted for Africans. And Africans are not coming to Spain and are definitely not looking for this region. They wanted to go to France, and after months, if not years, of crossing Africa, they are stuck in Spain, in some lost rural region that doesn't offer many jobs because this is where the NGOs had space for them.

Russians have had a hard life, obviously, but they also had time to prepare, to save some money. They are white and European, so the culture is more or less similar and know more or less what to expect. Their trip lasted like 2 days, by plane, with a visa. They have their passport and many of their personal documents. They chose where they were going and they went straight there. Things will look up for them now, things will now be easier. You can see that they are happy and resting, finally. Some even tell you "I sleep better here than I ever slept in Russia". Some had been going to therapy before coming here, they know what mental and physical condition they have and why. At least half of them had higher education. Some of them speak English, probably some of them also speak whatever local language they had, but generally they are monolingual in Russian.

Africans have had a hard life, an extremely hard year before they get here. If they left with money, they don't have any money anymore. They are black and African so the culture is very different and they don't have any references. They chose where they were going and they didn't reach it. They have been used and abused for over a year, so they don't know who to trust. Things may look up for some of them, but they will not be easier. You can see that they are lost and hopeless and don't know where to begin. They have never gone to therapy, maybe not even to a doctor, they are not very aware of their mental state, and they may only slightly aware of their physical condition. Most of them don't even have higher education and if they speak languages other than French, they are non-European languages and they don't know how to relate that knowledge to the new language they have to learn.

And in any case, most of them are men. I see some women and families in the NGO, but I don't deal with them. I have only interpreted for 1 Russian woman once, the only woman that came on her own that I have seen. I have never seen an African woman in this NGO, I had a neighbour though, a single mother who had a Spanish mixed child. Africans are mostly men and they travel alone, unless they come from the Maghreb, some Maghrebians come with their families or spouses.

I know why there aren't many women. I know why many of them don't even try to leave their countries, and what could possibly happen to those who try.

I don't know where I'm going with this. I guess it's just a thing to get off my head so I can keep working there.

Schengen Visa Processing in Dubai: A Quick Guide

If you're a UAE resident planning to visit Europe, a Schengen visa is often required. The Schengen visa allows entry into 27 European countries, collectively known as the Schengen Area. Whether you’re traveling for tourism, business, or visiting family, the process for obtaining a Schengen visa from Dubai can seem complex at first. In this quick guide, we’ll walk you through the essentials of the application process, required documents, and tips for a smooth experience.

What is a Schengen Visa?

A Schengen visa is a short-stay visa that allows you to travel to any of the 27 member countries of the Schengen Area for up to 90 days within a 180-day period. This visa is ideal for UAE residents who want to explore Europe for vacation, attend business meetings, or visit relatives.

Types of Schengen Visas

There are several types of Schengen visas available depending on the purpose of your trip:

Tourist Visa: For holiday or sightseeing purposes.

Business Visa: For attending meetings, conferences, or business activities.

Family Visit Visa: For visiting relatives or friends.

Transit Visa: For those passing through Schengen countries en route to another destination.

It’s important to select the right type of visa based on your travel plans to avoid rejection.

Step-by-Step Schengen Visa Process in Dubai

Here’s a simplified breakdown of the Schengen visa process for UAE residents applying from Dubai:

1. Determine Your Destination and Visa Type

The first step is to figure out which Schengen country you will enter first or where you’ll spend most of your time, as that’s the consulate or embassy where you’ll need to apply. For example, if you plan to visit France but also want to spend time in Spain and Italy, you must apply at the French consulate if that’s your main destination.

Ensure that the type of visa you’re applying for matches your travel purpose. The requirements for a tourist visa might differ slightly from a business visa, so be sure to read the guidelines provided by the relevant consulate.

2. Schedule Your Appointment

After determining the appropriate consulate, you’ll need to schedule an appointment at their visa application center. In Dubai, most Schengen countries have outsourced visa processing to service providers like VFS Global or BLS International. You can book your appointment online through their respective websites.

Tip: Try to schedule your appointment at least 3 to 4 weeks before your planned travel date to ensure enough processing time, especially during peak travel seasons.

3. Gather the Required Documents

One of the most important aspects of your Schengen visa application is ensuring you have all the required documents. Missing or incomplete documents are one of the most common reasons for visa rejection. Here’s a general list of what you’ll need:

Completed visa application form: This can be filled out online or at the consulate.

Passport: Your passport must be valid for at least three months beyond your intended departure date from the Schengen Area and should have at least two blank pages.

Passport-sized photographs: Typically two recent photos that meet Schengen visa guidelines.

Proof of accommodation: Hotel bookings, rental agreements, or a letter of invitation from a host.

Flight bookings: Confirmed return ticket or flight itinerary.

Travel insurance: Coverage of at least €30,000, valid in all Schengen countries for the entire duration of your stay.

Proof of financial means: Bank statements for the last 3 to 6 months showing sufficient funds to cover your trip.

Employment letter: A letter from your employer verifying your job position and approval for leave.

Tip: Always check the specific requirements of the consulate you’re applying to, as some may ask for additional documents.

4. Attend the Visa Appointment

On the day of your appointment, arrive on time at the visa application center. You’ll need to submit your documents and provide biometric data, which includes fingerprinting and a photograph. The visa officer may ask you some basic questions about your travel plans and the purpose of your visit.

Tip: Dress appropriately and be prepared to answer questions about your travel itinerary, accommodation, and financial situation.

5. Visa Processing Time

Once your application is submitted, the processing time for a Schengen visa from Dubai typically takes 15 calendar days. However, during peak travel seasons or if further documentation is required, processing times can extend up to 45 days.

It’s always recommended to apply as early as possible to avoid delays that could affect your travel plans.

6. Receive Your Visa Decision

After the processing period, you’ll be notified by the visa application center or embassy to collect your passport. If your visa is approved, it will be affixed inside your passport, indicating the duration of stay and the number of entries permitted.

If your visa is rejected, the embassy will provide a reason for the denial, and you’ll have the option to appeal or reapply after addressing the issues.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

To ensure your Schengen visa application from Dubai is successful, avoid these common mistakes:

Incomplete documentation: Double-check that all your documents are complete and correctly submitted.

Incorrect visa type: Ensure you apply for the right visa category based on the purpose of your visit.

Insufficient proof of funds: Show clear evidence of your ability to financially support yourself during the trip.

Inconsistent information: Ensure that all the information in your application is accurate and consistent across all documents.

Delays in applying: Apply well in advance of your travel date to account for any delays in processing.

Conclusion

Getting a Schengen visa from Dubai is a straightforward process if you’re well-prepared. By following the steps outlined in this guide, you can ensure that your application is processed smoothly and on time. Start by determining the right consulate, gathering your documents, and applying early to avoid any last-minute stress. With the proper preparation, you’ll be on your way to exploring the beautiful destinations of the Schengen Area.

The opportunity for AI formbots

The opportunity for AI formbots https://seths.blog/2024/12/the-opportunity-for-ai-formbots/ Forms are a convenient way for bureaucracies to collect information. They’re convenient because they offload the work to the patient/customer/taxpayer. The shift in labor led to an explosion of self-serve forms, but the built-in inefficiencies punish everyone. Organizations don’t see the cost of inefficient or badly designed forms, since the user engages in private. Organizations continue to add more to the forms, since it doesn’t cost them much to do so. Legacy systems and forms persist, because it’s expensive and organizationally challenging to upgrade them. The fundamental inefficiency is this–the form creator has to imagine all the possibilities before printing the form that will be used for years. As a result, the user finds themself plowing through irrelevant questions, because the form is already set. You are 9 years old and the form wants to know how many kids you have. You live in Buffalo and the form asks about a New York City resident tax… There are four problems here. The first is that time is wasted by every single user, every time. Because there’s so much nonsense, even alert users glaze over and skip over things that might be important. The form can’t check for errors and inconsistencies, and can’t prioritize the questions with the most important ones first. And most of all, the form is unable to intelligently dive deeper on the areas that matter. When we moved to online forms and PDFs, almost nothing changed. By building an analog of the paper form, we captured all the kruft and waste and redundancy without adding much in the way of value. Tell me again why we need to sign this 24 page electronic document in 9 places? Leaving technology out of this for a moment, imagine what intake might be like if, instead a form, you were talking to a human who could make decisions based on what you said? If you’re applying for a visa to Spain, they wouldn’t ask you questions that are irrelevant to this fact over and over again. But they might ask if you’ve had a travel vaccine yet. This person wouldn’t keep asking you for your name and birthdate, over and over. You already told them. Even more powerfully, though, a thoughtful person who heard that you had a problem with your spleen when you were a teenager would go on to ask you a number of clarifying questions about this issue, not simply instruct you to jump to the next box on the form. AI is already capable of doing this, and with some training, I’m imagining it could do an ever better job than a human interviewer. It could have more domain knowledge, more patience and provide (some people) a greater sense of privacy. A dialog (even by audio if that’s what the user benefits from) would take far less time and yield far more information, presented in a much more useful format. And it could highlight any missing information or discrepancies in the report it creates. It would also score the way it was trained, highlighting for the bureaucracy that they were asking for dumb things or creating user frustration. It would save millions of hours of user time, but much more usefully, it would save lives. If it’s worth filling out a form, it’s probably worth replacing the form with an actual gathering of information.

INTERNATIONAL RELOCATION FOR RETIREES: TIPS FOR A SMOOTH TRANSITION

It's a time for new adventures, and increasingly for many retirees, that may well involve relocation to a different country in search of a better quality of life, lower living costs, more salubrious climate, or simply the desire to experience a different culture. International relocation is fast becoming an increasingly popular option with retirees. Moving abroad at retirement age does come with some challenges that need careful planning.

Throughout this article, we look at a few important tips that would make any retiree's international relocation easy and smooth. We will look through it all-from financial planning and healthcare consideration to legal documentation and cultural adjustment.

1. Research the Cost of Living and Tax Implications

Probably, the most common factor for relocating abroad in retirement is a lower cost of living. Nevertheless, it's important to research specific costs in your destination country before making the move. While some countries can offer more affordable housing, groceries, and transportation, some of the other costs-one would expect to be low-may be much higher, such as health care, insurance, and taxes.

Cost of living comparison: Websites like Numbeo or Expatistan allow you to compare the cost of living between two countries and estimate how far your retirement savings will go. Make sure to include costs associated with housing, utilities, food, transportation, and entertainment in your calculations.

Tax obligations: Know what your tax responsibilities are if you choose to live overseas. Some countries levy taxes on worldwide income, while others have more favorable tax environments for retirees. Further, depending on one's citizenship status-most often from countries like the United States-it may be required that even while abroad, individuals file and pay taxes on worldwide income. Double taxation agreements between countries can help to offset this burden, so do your research as to whether your home country has such agreements with your destination.

2. Understand Visa and Residency Requirements

But before you start packing up your bags, it is critical to understand the various requirements for visa and residency in the country of your choice. Many countries have special retirement visas that will grant retirees permission to stay in their borders for extended periods of time. Each country, however, has its own set of eligibility, whether minimum required income or proof of adequate retirement savings.

Retirement Visa Options: Some countries, like Thailand, Malaysia, and Portugal, have retirement visas that lure foreign retirees with relatively easy application processes, as long as one meets the required financial criteria. For example, the retirement visa for Portugal requires proof of stable income derived from pensions or investments; Thailand's requires applicants over 50 and to maintain a sum certain of savings.

Permanent Residency vs Temporary Visas: Decide on permanent residency or staying on a temporary visa. While permanent residency provides full access to the local healthcare and social security system, temporary visas may require renewal from time to time.

3. Plan for Healthcare

The other important consideration, if retiring abroad, is your health care. Access to quality medical care, health insurance options available, and the cost for treatment are a few of the factors to be considered in making your decision.

Public Healthcare Systems: Most countries offer public healthcare, but, many times, your expatriate status may limit your access or you may have no access at all. For example, European Union retirees who retire to countries such as Spain or Portugal can avail themselves of public healthcare facilities. Other country citizens have to privately pay for health insurance or pay out-of-pocket.

Private Health Insurance: In case you are not entitled to a country's public health care, you will need private health insurance. Research local and international providers for the best coverage that would suit your needs. Most of the insurance companies provide expatriate health plans wherein their medical care is covered both in your host country and for trips back home.

Medical Facilities: Equally important is finding out about medical facilities in the country to which you will be moving, especially in cases of ongoing medical conditions that require frequent treatment. You will want to make certain that the new home has the needed medical services, such as hospitals, specialists, and pharmacies.

4. Housing Options: Buy or Rent?

Housing is another critical decision one makes when planning an international relocation as a retiree. Depending on your financial situation, whether or not the local real estate market is buyer- or seller-friendly, and how long you plan on staying will determine whether buying or renting will be in your best interest.

Renting: Renting offers lots of flexibility for retirees who seek flexibility in their new country. It is a great way to get a feel for the local community, with no need for a long-term investment. Renting also keeps you free from the responsibilities concerning property maintenance, which is particularly advantageous in foreign countries where the local rules and regulations may differ from what one has been accustomed to.

Property Buying: Owning property would be more economical in the long run if retirees stay long enough. Before making this decision, though, one has to understand the local laws of property. Some countries limit foreign ownership, while others encourage retirees to invest in real estate by giving incentives. Be sure to work with a local real estate agent and attorney who can lead you through the process.

5. Financial Planning: How to Manage Your Finances Abroad

Managing your finances is one of the major keys to comfort while retiring abroad. There is much to consider: transferring funds across international lines, how to handle currency exchange rates, even local banking.

Pension and Social Security: Ascertain precisely how your pension or social security benefits would be affected by the move. While some countries have agreements to directly transfer social security benefits with other countries, some do not. At times, this involves setting up a local bank account since one might receive benefits; in other cases, keeping an account in the home country will lead to currency conversion fees.

Banking and Currency Exchange: Opening a local bank account should not be a bad idea to avoid too many huge currency conversions and facilitate day-to-day transactions. Some of the banks have created an international account for expatriates that allows you to manage your finances in several currencies.

Taxation: Understand how taxes in your new country may affect your income, especially if you have a lot of different types of income coming from investments, pensions, or rental properties. If necessary, consult a tax expert who understands the complexities of tax law regarding expats to help you understand and stay on top of both local and home country tax requirements.

6. Cultural Adjustment and Language

This may be a bit challenging, but one important and often underestimated aspect of international relocation is cultural adjustment, which makes for a smooth transition. Relocation to a new country simply means moving into different customs, social norms, and probably even a new language.

Learn the Language: Most people can live quite comfortably in some countries without speaking the language, but learning even the basics will really enhance one's experience abroad. You will get better with your communications with the locals, you will feel better adjusted within the community, and more confident with your daily life.

Cultural Adjustment: Familiarize yourself with the local way of life, customs, holidays, and interpersonal behavior. Make use of joining local clubs or similar kinds of social groups that will help you integrate with ease and make new friends rather than giving in to the feeling of isolation that comes associated with country changes.

Be Prepared for Culture Shock: Even if you've taken a holiday in your destination country before, nothing quite compares to experiencing the culture around you when you must live amongst it. Culture shock is very real and sometimes very overwhelming at first. Give yourself time to settle in. Reach out for support from expatriate communities or local organizations that help newcomers acclimate.

7. Legal Documentation and Estate Planning

When emigrating, this is a very critical time to sort out your legal affairs in both your home country and your new country.

Update Your Will: Emigration may have a profound effect on the status of your estate. Make sure that your will is both applicable in your home country and your destination. You may have to create a separate will in relation to your assets for each country.

Power of Attorney and Health Directives: This may be a good opportunity to have a local power of attorney and health directives in the country to which you are moving, in case of some kind of emergency. These will help guarantee that your wishes will be taken into consideration should you become unable to make decisions for yourself.

Conclusion

While there is the excitement of a new start in life and learning a new culture found in an international relocation for retirees, planning and consideration should not go unnoticed. Knowing how much living costs, quality healthcare costs, and the requirements to obtain a visa will get you through managing your finances and adapting to the culture. Take the time to plan with due care, consult experts where necessary, and enjoy retirement in another country.
