Travel Bugs to non-english countries

[Jasowac]

I am fairly new at geocaching but I am quickly becoming an addict.

 

I will be heading to europe, and the middle east this summer and thought I would bring a couple of travel bugs to drop around the globe. I am wondering if there tends to be a problem dropping these bugs in countries that don't speak english...Do cachers in other countries know how to log them, what to do with them, etc?

Geocachers in countries who don't speak English are no different than those who do. There are plenty of non-English speaking Geocachers who log Travel Bugs correctly.

Logging shouldn't be any more of a problem there than it is here.

It might be nice to include a passport for the tb written in the language of the country you are dropping it in, just to make it easier for people to read it's goal. Otherwise they might need to go home and run it thru a translator.

I put my first TB in a cache in Turkey in May of this year. All of the information was in English, but it has managed to find its way to Germany already. Hope this helps.
