However, here's a real caveat: I heard that visa processing could take more time than you might expect. The only way to speed it up that comes to mind is getting in touch with a high-ranking Russian writer or a writers association willing to support your application as colleagues.<br />Anyway, I'm sure we'll have a lot of things to discuss over those beers.<br /><br />Andrei<br />Andreihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12834279035599340728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4284893230469697578.post-26675936223871438692016-01-26T00:51:00.426+07:002016-01-26T00:51:00.426+07:00Hi Andrei,

I'm in Germany until the beginning of March, then I must go back to the US. To visit Russia, I'll need to apply for a visa in the US, I think. I do hope to be able to go before too long, though, and we can have a few beers then!<br /><br /><br />LinhLinh Dinhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00328959360983573810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4284893230469697578.post-9589651337585440152016-01-26T00:11:37.731+07:002016-01-26T00:11:37.731+07:00Dear Linh Dinh:

I hope you'll visit Moscow sometime sooner or later, and I'll be looking forward to your written impressions.<br />By the way, I know a Vietnamese restaurant here, one of the kind you like to describe (typical of the locality, crowded with common people). I was told it's supervised by a native of Saigon.<br />If you happen to stop over for a few days and need an informal guide around the city of about your age, you can count on me.<br />Sincerely yours,<br />AndreiAndreihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12834279035599340728noreply@blogger.com
