Minsk, Belarus February 2007

[SRostislav]

Sounds like you have many complaint. Repulsive food , train problem and too cold for sissy brit LOL. Next time just stay in England where life is perfect.

[baztardtom]

nice vid, good to see it from a fello Brit tourist's point of view.

[tennisace12345]

07:21 LOL I would do the same!

[geordie35]

I was in Belarus at the end of 2008 for 3 weeks. Okay it was bloody cold - but I had brought warm clothing with me. Where is the problem?

The alleged Presidential Palace (3mins 24 sec) is in fact Rebublic Palace in the centre of Minsk. The President lives elsewhere. Great research dick head!!

A railway balls-up in Belarus - the Brits have balls-up their railway system for the last 20 years! Don't be put off going to Minsk - it is well worth a visit.

[sergiobrutto7]

Or go to Vancouver, BC where you will get vanished by rain. Belarus is heaven on Earth in terms of weather comparing to Canada and/or England.

[sergiobrutto7]

Go to Toronto, Canada or Sudbury, Canada and tell me then if Borisov, Belarus is hell in terms of cold in winter..

[witchypoobreath]

Jesus Christ.. Im not going to get back the ten minutes of my life that I just wasted watching that steaming pile of shit. What a moaning affected prick.

[dabertl2007]

best chixs :-)

[cloanes]

I've been to Belarus a few times and going back again in about 10 days. It's certainly different compared to UK, but I love it.

[TObelarus]

I can not wait to go again next winter.

[tonuhot]

can't you come up with something positive.

bitterly cold, disgustingly cold..oooo go to saudi arebia.

[ajmarshal1]

Jesus christ man! Why go somewhere and just whine about it? If you don't like the cold then go to Dubai! It's people like you who give us Brits a bad name as whinging pompous tossers. I'm going to visit Minsk soon and am thoroughyl looking forward to it. Hope it's as good as Budapest, Zagreb and Vilnius.

[VadimG87]

you should visit Polotsk also...the cultural center of Belarus!! =D

[transpotted]

ohh nooo its so cold......freak! its cold snow frost and winter,unlike ur homeland where its raining every day-u fat british tard

[DiamondsOfDublin]

I Love Minsk!!

[kariunas]

Good luck for belorussians from Lithuania and lithanians!

You are heroic nation!

Minsk is beautiful and of good order!

I hope, that our relationship will be better in a future!

[belaruss13]

[alkatraz40]

I when to there Minsk 2005 August was wonderful time I had there except mosguito's :-((( Beauiful Country, land, Nature and People's.its so nice

[zajasna]

It was nice video, i didnt see a lot but probably you didnt have time to visit alla traction there, discotecs etc. I am from macedonia and my boyfriend is from Minsk but we leave in Toronto. I need some more information for Belarus and Minsk.

[jayjaytulip]

Useful clip but the choice of the song is terrible.

[MADARKA123]

Hi everyone!

I have a Belarus sister in law. She is sweet and makes my brother happy. I am looking to find more information on this country and this culture... this was an interesting video, but I agree, there wasn't much of anything other than complaints about the cold... I was in that part of the world before and I agree, it is really-really cold there.... I don't know how people can live there....

Nevertheless, thanks for this posting, I saw things I wouldn't have otherwise. Thanks guys!

[lietuvis1984]

[TiaanaLuna]

**2 english people like Minsk

I loved it so much when I went I cried my eyes out when we got on the sleeper train back to poland. It was so awesome, watching this is making me sad again xD Beautiful country, awesome people ~~

[Krovaka]

Yeah, my country's capital is great and modern. So, i didn't undestand what diiid u want to tell us in some moments. But I wondered wwith what expression had u told. But I think you shouldn't speak so long only about the weather. But I'm still amazed, because I never knew do englishmen like Belarus or not. So, I see, one Englishman likes it. That's great that u have visited our country

[stained18]

Oh my god, the video was so coool. i really liked it. i wanted to see a really video of that city and i found it watching this video. the first song was amazing, i liked it. what is the name of the song? good work.

Congratulations from a 18 years old in Panamá.

bye

[vozhik]

MANY INACURACIES. E.G. - the tag "former KGB" is in fact shown against the building of the Council of Ministers - administrative offices of the government. The KGB is the next yellowish building with columns at the entrance. The building tagged in the video as "Presidential Pallace" is nothing more than a concert hall...

So what was the point of this video? To show its bitterly cold in Belarus? Was that your only impression of the country? And "Hellhole"... Come on. Very deep observation, pal.

[Shinkansen1966]

Sorry about the inaccuracies. Still, I wanted the video to convey the country as I saw it: intesting but difficult experiences at times. I wasn't fully prepared for the cold!!

[vorkutaman]

Hope I did not offend but the way you presented did not seem natural, seemed like you were trying to be Alan Wicker. As I said nice video, have been to Belarus many times, great country but little to do outside of Minsk. Will watch your other videos but maybe with the sound down : ) Happy travels!

[Shinkansen1966]

Not offended at all !!! Yes, you are quite right, I'm trying to Alan Wicker, aren't I? I like the travels and making my little films.

[vorkutaman]

Nice video but the guy speaking is very annoying. Trying to get a job in tv no doubt.

[Shinkansen1966]

Hey, but that is me --- shinkansen1966. Wouldn't mind a job in tv, even if I am annoying !!

[mbudata]

very nice video:).ı was been there at 2005.minsk really pretty city

[BelarusReport]

+++ Very fine work! +++ We like Englishman in Minsk! +++ Good quality report! +++ Keep in contact! +++ всё в нём свидетельствует о незаурядности его личности +++ всего хорошего YouTube община! +++ BelarusReport*

[Punorss]

Nice video! I am going to Belarus next year and I have to get from Minsk to Mogilev on my ownsome, God help me! If nothing else it will be an Experience. I am franticly trying to learn as much Russian as I can but I cannot roll my R's to save my life so it should be interesting to see peoples expressions as I try and navigate myself around that little speech impediment.

[alegria101]

The buildings and sculptures there are gorgeous! I want to go now! I was laughing at the fish near the end, it was unexpected to see them!

[eurodestination]

Good video, but shame about all the whingy english comments

[Yeiyei23]

Thanks for your information!!!! xDDDD A very "currated" video, we will go this august to Belarus!!

[ojanm]

That was like an anti-advertisement. :-)

[johncare]

like your video THKS

[Jusevo]

i'm trying to learn a bit...i'm from Norway btw...

[Jusevo]

nie video would you recomend traveling to Minsk and Belarus?

[Shinkansen1966]

Jusevo, I would recommend travelling to Minsk and Belarus. Speaking some russian makes a big difference.

[Chr0n3]

Hello from Minsk. I liked the TV style of this report. Belarusian music in the background - funny I realised that only reading credits :))

Hope U like this trip. Bring yourself here in teh middle of summer :)

[Belarus228]

Minsk is such a beatiful city! I'm going there this summer.

[dimamars]

Minsk is really great! And Belarus is a great country! Thanks for this video!

[RosaRain]

Winter is definitely not an ideal time to be in Minsk. Russian & English are not exactly compatible, but hopefully you got by. Appreciate the lovely video you posted on Belarus.

[Mpro83]

Next time take me with u, I speak Russian :)

[Janna004]

Merci for very interesting reportage . Super !

[morbillis]

hey, man. So how did u like the trip to East Europe?

[Shinkansen1966]

Real language problems but a terrific experience.
