That’s probably true – I don’t know mine off by heart and if I did I think I would still have it in front of me when checking in for flights so that I don’t make any expensive errors! Hope you’re enjoying a nice Easter break.

Good point – I always like to doublecheck everything! Easter has been great, hope yours has been too! 🙂

Yes, it’s true. I travelled maybe 50% of the time in my last job. I could remember my passport number and expiry date by heart 🙂

Hehe, I don’t even know its expiry date. But I fear it’s close. 😮 Travelling inside the EU is no fun borderchecking-wise any more. (Unless you go to Croatia – then you WAIT.)

😀 I can’t remember mine anymore, either, but there have been times when I was filling in visa forms so often that it became routine

Well, I’m a numbers freak, so I do know my passport number, the expiration date, all my credit card numbers, everyone’s phone number and address, … you get the picture! Numbers just stick in my head.

😂 Is that good or bad, having all those numbers swirling around in your head? Hahah! ☺️ I miss the days when I remembered everyone’s phone numbers, now I can barely remember my own!

Heheh I think in my case I just know it by heart because of having to fill out numerous application forms in two foreign countries where I’ve lived so far – Finland and Poland. 🙂 Where is the photo from? It looks interesting!

Numbers are totally lost on me, but I remember this ship vividly. Loved exploring it (even though its a movie prop).

Interesting, though I’m probably the exception that confirms the rule: I’ve never been able to remember my passport numbers. 😦

Maybe that’s a good thing?! Saving space for something important!
