Getting my Russian shop set up

[jdurand]

As far as we could tell, we did go to the nearest country that doesn't hassle Americans. But American's from Russia, that's a different kettle of monkeys.

We don't have the Western vaccine so can't go to any countries run by the pharma. A lot of places have fallen out of love with Americans so can't go to them anymore.

If Ukraine would calm down we could take a train or drive over to the border, walk across, have lunch with someone we know, and then walk back to get our visa stamped.

Next trip will probably be Istanbul, depending on which way their politics are leaning by then.
