Anyone visited Belarus ?
 

I wonder how's life there.
I read sometimes in the press about that country, but don't know the details. One thing is sure - the girls are very desperate there and are looking for foreigners. You may be making only $500 from your porn job, but if you go there, you'll still be able to live like a pimp for two weeks.
But girls may be not the only reason.
North Koreas is rather dangerous, China will soon become more american than the US and Cuba is probably a joke now. So if you want go back to the past, you have to go to Belarus.
Any GFY'er been there?

come on, you won't live like a pimp with $500 there.. relax

In case you ask yourself: "wtf he is talking about".....this may help a little:

Are you sure? What's the monthly salary there? $50 ?

Life is hard there. It is just like Russia.

You can't drink the water because its dirty.

Many times the electricity is out.

Many times there is no hot water.

Sure, just like Russian girls, the girls in Belarus are whores also.

Well, its not all bad, at least beer and vodka are cheap. :glugglug

Yeah, maybe $100, like in Russia and Ukraine.

1st. City. The bigger city - the higher prices.
2nd. Organisation you working in - commercial company or state institution. If second - then the salary sucks even more :)

You gotta see it yourself, it's hard to explain. But you won't live like a pimp with $500 2 weeks there. You want to go to some nice bar, u'll drink and eat some stuff, you'll leave there like $10-15. Your apartment. If it's good, it's $20-40 per 24 hrs. Try to count. ;)

I don't think so.
Rusia is developing, Belarus rather not.
Russia is becoming a democratic country, Belarus not.

Russia has been developing for over 70 years and life still sucks.

There is little difference between Putin and Lukashenko, both control the media and any semblance of independant criticism of their governments.

I am sure the police arbitrarily stop people on the streets of Minsk, just as in Moscow.

I have not been to Poland, but I have heard it is light years better than Russia or Belarus.

or Ukraine :glugglug



:helpme

But Lukashenko said few months ago that he invites Saddam Hussein to his country ( or something like that ).
And now he decided to spend more money on the army, because he's afraid of an american attack. :1orglaugh
At least all the opinions I've heard and read showed him as Europe's last dictator.

Ukraine is a great place if you love to eat pork fat. :1orglaugh

I always cheer on the Belarus teams during the Olympics. They are such underdogs.

sounds like a dangerous country to live in.. especially if you have alot of money on you.. nothing worst tha corrupt cops/soldiers..

hahahaha, true, true :1orglaugh


but I don't think it's the only benefit though :glugglug

<img SRC="http://members.shaw.ca/billy1-99/pics/homer.gif">mmmmmm.... pork fat.

Life there is pretty good ;)))
You can do everything you want.... But this country is exUSSR... so it's like Russia :)

How are the girls their?

if you guys have never seen this guy on TV, he is very comical. he is completely insane and just goes on long rants about nothing, making threats to everyone. it would be funnier of course if he was not a known thug with a personal hit team or if they were not known for beating the shit out of protestors.

Putin is really regretting the whole Russia/Belorus union because this guy is such a loose cannon and so out of control.

I used to live in Grodno, Belarus and moved to USA when i was 10, (11 years ago), I remember life being very simple and lots of poor people, but i don't know how things are there now. I'd be curious to go back there one day to see how things are, the girls, etc

-paulk

better go to ukraine
odessa
kiev are good city to live

or may be Czech republic
cheap rent
cheap girls
cheap life

cheap life in belarus - not anymore. at least in the capital, Minsk. decent 3-room aparts in a good district are $350+/mo

dirty water - yep, but better than in russia or ukraine

electricity out - BS, more stable than in most western countries

insane president - yep, very true

in general:

expensive for tourists comparing with other exUSSR states, Minsk looks better than most of other post-soviet cities

Is it just me or is there a disproportionately large number of stunning women in czech?

Czech Republic is not that cheap anymore. Prague is highly overpriced just like Budpest in Hungary .... but on the countryside and in smaller towns you are still king with a small budget.

With a few hundred bucks life can be good for a while in those former USSR countries.
But most people still live under terrible conditions there...

Don't be stupid - the stats are "official" info and probably 60% of the economy is "fading to black" if I may use that expression. They report no salaries and people get paid in cash, etc. When you divide the $reported by the people working you get something like that - $100 and you say WOW, this is cheap ;-)

No, it's just that the industry is booming there so a lot of women are considering porn early on in their careers :winkwink:

I lived several months in Poland (Warsaw) and I tell you only one thing - you must be crazy to move from Poland to any of these countries (Russia, Ukraine, Belarus). I would not change Warsaw even for richest places like Moskow, Kiev or Minsk. The quality of life sucks there comparing to Warsaw. Though you cannot see such a shining casinos in Warsaw as you can see in Moskow and a number of mersedeses and BMW you can see in Warsaw is essentially lower than you can see even in Kiev, but trust me - it means nothing. Life is shit there for 98% of people.

so fucking true. quantity of mers & bmws means nothing.
