Belarus online

Hello world! I happened to find some interesting pieces on Belarus in the last couple of weeks. I wanted to share them, so that you could check them out as well. :)

First of all, I came across recently a cool video about Minsk. I embed it here, for you should definitely watch it. It shall be intriguing for those who have not been there yet, and also for those who have been and miss it as hell. :)



Furthermore, stay tuned for the coming new edition of Bradt's Belarus guide. The current edition was my faithful companion on my stay and I cannot wait for the new edition to be available for purchase. It is going to be published in May. It is going to be thick & awesome!
And...last, but definitely last least... The 11. Verzio International Human Rights Documentary Film Festival was organized this week in Budapest. Unfortunately I could only go to one screening, but it was totally worth it. No matter how much I love Belarus, there is another side of the coin... This film was deeply moving and I even shed some tears. If you have the opportunity to watch it, do so!



That's all for now.

Oh, silly me. I wanted to share yet another thing. I am about to start working on my theses (yes, there are two of them... One might as well be hanged for a sheep as a lamb). In my thesis about written translation, I'm going to translate a study about Belarus. I found it accidentally, but I couldn't be happier. :)

Пока!
