Hello Again!

Have been off the radar in deapest Belarus for a couple of weeks so been unable to post. Nolies I have a few days free from 15-18 july if that is a good time for you, no major expedition could be undertaken but we could atleast hit a few grimm towns of the beaten track. PM me or post a message. I will post my experiences of the last few weeks at a later date when the trip is over.

Hi!

I planned a trip to Belarus for the beginning of August, I will meet a BY girl met in Lithuania some time ago. It's the 1st time in BY for me

I have a "burocratic" question: I will get there with a visa for private visit (it is easier to get since I don't need an invitation letter or hotel voucher). My girl will rent for me a flat in Minsk.

In the visa form I will put her address (in a minor town of Belarus), but I will stay in Minsk. Do you see any problem?

Do you know the procedure for the registration at the police station? Does police will put a stamp in the passport / in the immigration card (like in Russia)?

Thank you guys for the help!

Will be in Belarus in July. If anybody is up for some off the beaten path exploration then PM me. I am interested in going to the little towns in the wilds where not many people have hunted before, an Indiana Jones kind of pussy hunt.

Will be in Minsk Aug 5 - 10.

I haven't seen many Italians in Minsk, but there aren't many tourists either. On the other hand, there must be a long-established Italian community and connections in Belarus.

Sour Honey, another member of this forum who is living almost permanently in Belarus now, is Italian, and I understand he went there some years ago through some Italian contacts in Belarus. They are doing business there so are pretty integrated, so you can't tell which nationality they have. Those who know Sour Honey from his Prague days with his broken English will be amazed hearing him speaking Russian now.

PS: I'm not sure where you want to get to, but if you wanna say that the Italians are already in Belarus (and other FSU countries like the Baltic countries) well before other Westerners, then that is probably true. I've seen Italians in remote villages you wouldn't be able to pin on a map, and they have been there for a long time.

Before a lot of americans and italians spoil the prices its better to go right now., so hurry uup.

Another reason why I was in doubt, and I am in doubt about to go to minsk, is that I suspect, and I know, that italians are already arrived...



I don't know if they are few or a lot...

Gand Jim, can you confirm me that ?
are there a lots of italian, or just few?

Anyway, Italians descovered belarus girls many years ago, because a lot of child go to italy in the summer to purify themselves from radiation.

[GandJim]

Felix,

I tend to agree with you and my first reaction is that Lukashenko must have gone insane to waiver visas. Westerners usually don't have an idea of what is control in Belarus but, to give an example, one of my business partner who also got a business multi-entry visa to Belarus (which took months and tons of paperwork to obtain, including an intensive interview at the embassy), was immediately deported last year just because he failed to register his visa on time with the local authorities.

But, on the other hand, the oil&gas crisis a month ago was felt like being stabbled in the back by Moscow. It wouldn't surprise me that they want to send some "signals" back: "We can go West". My bet is that this is just politics, but will not happen. And most probably, Moscow like you and me, won't believe this either.

Unless the oil&gas crisis was already an answer from Moscow to some underground moves from Minsk that they didn't like, and that we aren't aware of. My Belarussian partner told me "You remember, when Ukraine had its oil&gas crisis, Moscow told them that they can no longer have the reduced price. Reduced price is for Moscow's allies like Minsk, those who want to go West must bear its consequences: market price. Has our president gone West in any way last year secretly?".

But we're going off topic here. Time will tell.

Rumours say that Belarus wants to abolish visas up to middle 2007.
Before a lot of americans and italians spoil the prices its better to go right now., so hurry uup.

W.B.

Well, I seriously doubt this fact until proven otherwise! Would totallitarian Lukashenka really allow westerners without any control to enter his country?

Then his days would be counted!

Anyone else know anything about this fact?

Gandjim;
Yes Im pretty sure youre right in your statements! The good days are gone even in Belarus! The top girls already have russian men to let them taste the fancy life!
