maybe $800 for a one way trip

cant be arsed to search for better pictures as i had the tab open

don't forget the multiple visas

china alone is 150 euros

but it's a pretty cool trip and definitely unique

@Kimichiboi around 1000 euros without the visas just for travel and food

still baffles me how some countries require visas

I mean c'mon I'm glorious European Union citizen

i've been meaning to go to hong kong next year but i'm probably just gonna go visit shanghai for the fourth time

Honk Kong during these protests <:pepewot:589100642820161551>

aand apparently they do have separate trans-siberia visas too

but otherwise its russia, mongolia, china

around 500 for the visas if you use services

probly 250 if you know your way around visas

or just yolo and spent some days in the gulag

mongolia visa is question mark but russia visa is easyish and china visas for tru travel should be easy

but ordering visas months early your planned travel and planning the train at best half year forward

ouch

but single entry visas for 30-90 days are usualy easy to get

china visas are a bitch

I've applied for them three times and each time they add another form

where do you rank?

bullshit for the Chinese visas is that i need to travel to UK to give fingerprints ":D"

can't you just do that at your local <:chinese_think:323022148870602752> embassy

UK is my local embassy

... "where they want the fingerprints taken"

but you were finnish no??

im confused <:sadmitu:331056421342806026>

same as canadian visas requries me to go to sweden to get visa

for fuck sake

@Tervy fingerprints? I had to give those at the airport in pudong, not in nl where i live

for the chinese visa, standard form is like four pages plus proof of employment issued by your workplace as well as proof of hotel booking and travel booking

yeah but you can do it before travel

and its suggested

if you don't have employment you need a current bank statement showing you have at least 3K in the bank

you need visa to travel to canada? @Tervy

oh I've never had to do the finger prints before travel

@Kimichiboi if i plan to live longer there yes (and otherwise yes too iirc)

they never asked for it either

at pudong I had to give ALL finger prints lol
