I am a frequent visitor of FKK Palace in Frankfurt and made first time trip into Artemis this evening, a venue I've read about with interest for quite some time. Quite easy to get to by public...

Reporter, as is nearly everything, is on Karl Marx Street, which is quite lovely by the way. Moct is a big shopping center on the riverfront and you can't miss it. I don't recall the address for...

I was in DNP for about a week last August and had a blast although I had only one encounter of an amorous nature. I would go back in a heartbeat though. This information is about six months old:

I'm in Dnipropetrovsk for a couple days business. Anyone else around DP? PM me.

Headed back to Kyiv next month for the first time in a two years. I am somewhat surprised that the crazy inflation isn't having some sort of impact on the local girl mentality, at least as reported...

Club Sera Hotel is really nice and one of those all-inclusive places, with great food and setting (and a wonderful departure from my four LONG days down in Phaselis Rose with a throng of Muscovites)....

I stayed at the Club Sera Hotel last summer and it was pretty sweet. Great pool and good location.

Took a knockout back from the Cherry Lady [a nice place without the hard sell that I had read...

Unless things have changed since last July, there are in fact girls, some of them quite beautiful, in the lobby bar at the Minsk Hotel. Trust me -- I was with two of them. Perhaps they've been...

My company is sending me there this August and I've never even heard of this city but the trusty Wikipedia gives some basic info (its the capital of the Komi republic and full of reindeer and...

Describing Minsk (and the rest of Belarus) as "a Third World country" is either insulting or naive. If you go in with this mentality you will be shocked. These people are better educated, more...

Any discussion about radiation in Belarus needs to reference this map:

Personally, I would not eat meat in Belarus but I'm...

My time in Belarus was wonderful all around and I cannot truly recommend one place over another. I speak "functional" Russian, so getting out of the big cities is not too scary for me. That said,...

Klitchkov --

Good news on the pricing. I'm sure lots of people will be happy to read that.

On the other hand, I have stayed at both the Hotel Novosibirsk and the Hotel Sibir and there is really...

Klitchkov --

The prices I quoted were for the Hotel Sibirsk girls. I'm sure you can get lower elsewhere but I'm not sure you will see the same quality. I feel $100 or even $150 is great value for...

I was in E-kat for four days this summer and, though this city is somewhat interesting as a tourist, I found it extremely difficult to maneuver in terms of women. Just walking around I just didn't...

Yeah, I read that article from the United Nations too, which is controversial in the health professions, to say the least. There probably is a deep-seated over-paranoia in Eastern Europe about...

I just want to assuage any fears that people have about radiation (a field I have considerable knowledge in) and Belarus. You are not going to get it from hanging out with a local hottie.

On the...

No need to worry about radiation unless you decide to move to southern Belarus. One week in Gomel, for example, is the equivalent of a chest xray, and that is in the epicenter of the Chernobyl...

I was shocked to encounter a [semi]pro brunetka at Real McCoy last night, right at the extremely crowded bar. She did not fully look the part, in that fuzzy area between typical over-the-top Eastern...

There are, in fact, girls in the hotel bar at Hotel Sibir. The quoted cost is $150 but I got it down to $100. That's probably too expensive for Siberia, but my Russian is not that great and these...

A couple of misconceptions about Minsk to dispel right away:

a) None of the girls speak English.
Untrue. I found many girls, particularly under 30, who were rather adept at it. I went into Minsk...

I was in Riga exactly one year ago and am there now again. I cannot even believe what one year of EU membership has done to this place. The women are still drop dead gorgeous, I mean really it is...

Steven:

Take about two hours or so and learn some key phrases in Russian. Buy a phrasebook in Barnes & Noble that you can put into your back pocket. You will not become fluent in Russian -- that...

Handyman:

Many of your complaints about Moscow seem to stem from the fact that it was a hassle to manage 9 people at once. I think anyone who's even read about Moscow's shortage of good hotels...

I have found that the absolute best guide, for Latvia and several other Eastern European cities, is the In Your Pocket Guide. Especially for things to do inbetween.

The print version is very...
