Dear Officers, I would like to appeal my rights as human being, a first time solo traveler at legal age, visiting my friend for the first time in Europe.  I have provided a documents needed and got my visa approved for 90 days. Why did you required me to get a relative to be my sponsor when I  already had a friend who is committed as my sponsor. We are both professionals , working decently why did you hold my departure with your nonsense.
