Ranked #6,706 in Travel, #208,649 overall
Hi everybody!
My name is Alena and I live in Minsk, the capital of Belarus.
Considering my varied work experience in tourism sphere and search for more interesting way of interacting with people I decided to become a freelancer.
What is it all about
I would enjoy to accompany you on the walk around the Minsk downtown, choose restaurant according to your preferences (Belarusian, Russian, Ukranian, Italian, Spanish, Indian, Nepal, Japan... cuisine) or escort you to a night club (there are plenty. you'll get to the best!).
There are so many interesting places to visit:
- museams
- art galleries
- churches and cathedrals,
- mansion-houses and castles of Belarusian nobility
- Opera and Ballet Theater
- Belarusian Circus
- Central Botanic Garden (May-October)
... and much more!
I can book tickets to concerts (from classical and folk to modern rock and pop music), shows and theatre performances, arrange your visit to the Minsk Knights club.
I'd be pleased to draw up a program of your visit considering your interests and number of days you'd like to spend exploring and having fun.
I'll be glad to answer your questions. Just drop me a line:

P.S. Ich schpreche auch gut DEUTSCH.

YouTube videos on Belarus
1. Belarus
Great slideshow made of beautiful images of Belarusian nature: greenery, lakes, landscapes, sunsets... The soundtrack is in Russian. The song is about how nice and beautiful our country is, how we love it no matter what and that you gonna fall in love with it too - like with a charming lady, from the first sight.
Enjoy my favourite!
2. Minsk Belarus
Slideshow: Minsk architecture, monuments, cityscapes, metro. Nice dynamic soundtrack.
Eye-and-ear appeal video.
3. Circus of Minsk Belarus!!
One performance flows into another, showfolk come and go. Joyful and energetic music creates a holiday atmosphere. Like everything exists just to have fun...
So have fun!
4. Mountain Skiing in Silichy, Belarus
Sunny winter day, Silichy ski centre, 32 km from Minsk. The video is such an energizer!
And YOU ready for extreme outdoor activities?
5. Minsk public library rocks
The National Library of Belarus is a new sightseeing attraction in Minsk. The video demonstrates variety of the building's lighting at night.
6. Minsk, Belarus February 2007
Just watch. Quite interesting experience. But I just can't keep my mouth shut.
Guys, get informed, organized and prepared for your trip! Or just get somebody to do it for you. Don't blow your chances, don't loose your time, don't miss things out!
I think my job is exactly this: minimize unpleasant surprises and unexpected difficulties, help you gain positive experience and make you enjoy your trip to the fullest.
