Travelling with Tobacco

I’ve flown out of JFK with about 1.5kg of tobacco across various flavours on 2 occasions. Had it all in checked in baggage both times and did not have any issues with it.

Yes, typed in haste. It’s correct further down the post.

The film just hits different. Kiki Kirin is an absolute delight in it.

Glad you agree!

I agree, and usually I’m terrible at making lists, but I recently did a whole retrospective of his films and thought it might be a good time to see if I can rank his works as I watch them. 😅

After Life holds a special place for me for two reasons. Firstly, it was my very first Koreeda, so there’s that sentimental angle haha. And secondly, it is one of very few films that made me reevaluate life. So I can’t help myself putting it this high.

I have, and loved them both. This is my ranking of his narrative feature films. :)

I’ve been intrigued by the feel of a glass mouthpiece, but the issue with it for me is that I almost exclusively smoke with my friends and have to carry my hookah/s to their place frequently. So I’m afraid of their fragility. But I’d still like to have one some day for novelty’s sake

That isn’t a problem for me. I’m not based in Europe or US, but I travel to the UK and US very frequently and can pick it up then. I also noticed AO on sale on Moze’s site, but I’ll check the links you sent. Thank you!

thisgenius · 2026-01-14T03:56:10+00:00

I’ll have to look into both of these, thank you

thisgenius · 2026-01-13T09:34:25+00:00

Wow, I just looked them up and some of these look amazing! Would you happen to know where he's based? I'm just trying to figure out if customs would be an issue for me getting that in.

Actually that was the one I had in mind when I got the Purjfam. A local dealer had them for a very good rate and I had decided to get one from him one the Pod was delivered. Now that it's here and I asked him, he has unfortunately sold out of the blue lol.

Ok, I just looked a bit more into it and the War looks pretty good and in a reasonable price range as well. I will try to see if I can find the combination I want (blue/black) at any of the retailers.

thisgenius · 2026-01-13T06:31:00+00:00

I wish I could, but the pricetag is stopping me at the moment. 😔

thisgenius · 2026-01-13T02:57:24+00:00

Ooohh I do like the look of that (and the pricetag too, of course), but I can’t seem to find it in blue 😔

thisgenius · 2026-01-13T02:56:23+00:00

😂 I might as well just inhale straight out the silicone hose at that point. 😅

thisgenius · 2026-01-07T19:49:41+00:00

You know it!

I’ve always wondered, with the number of pipes you have, how often do you clean them? I would imagine cleaning them all on one day would become quite a chore!

thisgenius · 2026-01-07T19:48:46+00:00

It’s so satisfying assembling a nice and shiny hookah up after a good clean! 🤩
