Madolline Gourley's experience at Los Angeles International Airport in 2022 turned disastrous when US officials denied her entry based on alleged visa violations related to house-sitting. Detained and interrogated for hours, she faced deep scrutiny over her travel intentions. The breach stemmed from her plans to pet-sit in Canada for reduced accommodation costs, which contradicted the visa waiver program prohibiting any form of compensation. This encounter has haunted her travels for years, complicating her attempts to enter other countries and significantly altering her life.
Gourley explained she was detained at LAX after officials found her plans to house-sit while visiting Canada suspicious and deemed it a breach of the visa waiver program.
The incident not only resulted in her immediate rejection from the US but has also caused ongoing complications with her international travels, marking a significant change in her life.
