No
celý týden byl nakonec takový neslaný a nemastný. Jo vlastně,
mě jeden pán z vrátnice přihlásil na místní 10km závod v
listopadu. V pátek se mi podařilo najít jednu super plavárnu s x
saunama. Nejvíc se mi ale líbila ledová sauna, odkud ze stropu
padá ledová tříšť. :-) Pak jsem ještě zajel nakoupit nějaké

I then heard horror stories that it takes 1 to 2 days to cross the border and I did not sleep well knowing my VISA expired in 1 day and I was in a communist dictatorship ...
Brest Fortress
I had an extremely rough time entering Belarus. My visa was the toughest of the 7 visas I have got thus far. I had to contact an agency, which turned out to be a man and not an agency to ask for a letter of invitation. He asked for money and emailed me his passport. This passport was my letter of invitation. It was valid for 50 years, which was really odd. So in short, I had to bribe someone to invite me here. I should have known ...
