RE: What To Do When Your Phone Gets Lost Or Stolen (While Living) Abroad
lol oh, do you have those weird addresses like "blue house next to the ice cream shop" type addresses?

Kinda, all the streets and houses have names instead of numbers, so you go like
Calle El Roble, Casa El Angelito, Urbanización Santa Mónica, Caracas, Distrito Federal
Then you have people wandering all around Santa Mónica asking where the hell is a street named El Roble, and when, finally, they find it, there are two houses called El Angelito, but the right one doesn't have the name out so they deliver it to the wrong one.
But that's not the main problem but the fact that there are a big big lot of scams here, and not only that, but accidents, theft and for international deliveries, the ones that steal from the packages are the Custom guards, if even they let you bring the packages without bribing them.
