The state of California is teeming with the seething resentment of its residents right now. It is all due to the innocuous green plant known as Marijuana lovingly called the ‘pot’ by the ones who cannot do without it. To legalize it or not legalize it seems to be the question that is on everyone’s lips now. Days of heated arguments over the issue has made it clear to all that it is not the ‘whether to legalize it’ aspect but the way to do it that is of prime importance here. The controversies and the pros and cons gather speed as the days trickle down to Proposition 19 and it is now the turn of the Californian Moms to cry out loud in favor of legalization. But wouldn’t you rather live in a country that was okay with smoking ‘pot’ and did not even consider your experiments with the Cannabis a vice? There are indeed a few such countries where the Marijuana user can hope to live in peace or bliss whatever meaning the smoky utopia holds for them.
Holland is definitely the place that you can go to if you are looking to evade the Marijuana law. With no country being as relaxed as the Netherlands when it comes to floating high in air adrift on the leaves of the Marijuana plant.
Argentina, which is only a stone’s throw away if you compare its distance from mainland Europe, can help you sustain your own habit of smoking pot if you are determined to be selfish and agree to possess only a small amount, that too for personal use.
Flying half way around the world on the wings of your dreams is easy enough especially when you have the aid of Marijuana to see you through. But literally going Down Under all for smoking in peace might not be such a good idea as some of the regions especially Victoria and Queensland will be gleefully ‘ticketing’ you for possessing minor amounts of the controversial weed.
Belgium, on the other hand, is willing to bear with you if you just follow a few conditions. Public smoking of the Cannabis is still considered to be an offence as is smoking pot by kids who try to pass off as adults. The amount of possession matters too and you will definitely have to face the law if you are caught showing off by smoking the notorious Marijuana in presence of a minor.
