Fuck You Belarus> Travels

Allow me to explain why I hate Belarus and what I am going to do about it.

A man gets on a train. He has been traveling for a while now, a bit weary at this point. He is on his way to Lithuania. He is more than ready to leave Russia, has in fact spent all of his rubles. His Russian Visa is going to expire the next day so he in fact must leave Russia and the night train to Lithuania seems to be the best and least expensive way to do so. The ticket lady inspects his ticket and he boards that train, as stated before. He begins to unpack his things, exchange greeting with his fellow passengers and so on. Then the ticket lady comes onto the train and asks to see his Belarussian transit Visa. The man explains that he is going to Lithuania, not Belarus and that he was not informed (By his lonely planet guide book or the woman selling him his ticket) that the train would infact being transiting Belarus to get to Lithuania. He does not have a Belarussian transit visa. He is asked to leave the train.

Now how much of this is Belarus's fault? Probably not much, but I am blaming them because it feels good. Instead of seeing lovely Lithuania right this minute, I am back at my non-hot water having, non-Visa Card accepting hotel. I have booked a flight to Germany because I have to get out of the country today and that was the only flight I could find under 300 dollars. I don't mind this too much as it will give me a chance to see my good friend Yann, whol lives in Berlin and Steven who happens to be flying into Berlin today also. But still, this was a bit of an inconvienence which is why I am Boycotting Belarus.

That's right. I am boycotting all Belarussian products and will not travel in their country until they revoke mandatory transit visas. I am not sure what products are Belarussian, but they have got to make something and I call upon all of my readers to join me in this boycott. Also, from now on this blog will act as an anti-Belarussian mouthpiece. Quake in fear Belarus, I'm coming for you.
