That's right. So she would want as much spending money as possible. Right. So why buy the weed from a country, where the price is quite high, and smuggle it into a country where she could purchase the weed for a much lower price, and sidestep the smuggling issue, with the possibility of being apprehended, and gacing a long term in jail, or the possibility of the death sentance?

If she wanted to save money, smoke dope while on holiday, and and live to tell about it, she would have brought it there, not smuggle it in.
If the zipper is in the wrong spot, why doesn't she open it right away and check if something is missing?

She couldn't have buy the weed over there while on vacation because she is a tourist. When I go on vacation, I have trouble finding a store that sells postage stamp, but I don't use drugs, so I won't be looking it in another country.

We are talking about weed, not newspaper, how's she supposed to find it while she has a limited days on a vacation, when she said it herself, that she doesn't speak their language.

If you go on vacation to a new place, regardless whether you have been to that place a few times, how easy can it be to find weed? Without knowing anyone?

So why waste all that time while her hotel rate is being billed by the day, when she can bring some from homeland?

So bringing in from Australia makes perfect sense to me.

Besides, what if she is a airhead who doesn't know the penalty is life in prison or death sentence on smuggle drugs?
