Hi,
I'd like to get to conference, but with round trip air flight from
Belarus the participation
price rises to a little bit more than 1500$ - too much for my budget.
Can you point me
to some railroad route planning sites to evaluate alternative ways?
Hi Anatoly,
you can probably plan a train journey using the German rail website - say
Minsk to Berlin which takes about 19 hours. Birmingham is probably another
10 hours by train from there (via Cologne and Brussels)

But that won't be cheap because of the channel tunnel trains. Might be
better getting to Poland and getting a coach. It looks like Bialystok -
London is a single route:

Speaking about alternatives, does anybody how long it could take to
hitchhike through
the Europe from Poland to UK these days? I hope that hitchhiking in
Europe is not
illegal like in U.S.
Hitchhiking is certainly legal but can take quite a while but it's
certainly something I'd not want to do in the current heat wave, from
which the UK has just escaped.
Good luck with your travels!
Charlie
