RE: What A Face 🤪
Dear David,
Unfortunately, the situation is very sad. I would like to help as much as I can. Since there is a war situation at the moment, I have no information about how processes such as visa and accommodation work. But like I said, I'd love to help.
Fortunately, Ukrainians can go to Turkey with no visa for 90 days. My priority is to get my friends safe. I can fly ten people to Turkey for the price it takes to fly one person to Canada. Are there places to rent in your area? I might need you or @enveng to open a US dollar bank account to send money to, to pay for their expenses. At least the unspoken practices are similar between Ukraine and Turkey.
When my ex-sister-in-law came to Canada from Laos, they were dumped off in a motel with no explanation about anything. It is an interesting to listen to her describing how she perched on the toilet because Laotian toilets are a hole between two footpads. The flipside to that story was when their family all returned to Laos they found her nephew with two legs sticking out from underneath a washroom door. He was sitting on the footpads.
I don't know if anyone can even leave the country but I like to be prepared. I am glad I have friends in Turkey to rely on if necessary.
