STUDENT LIFE

Visas:

I needed visas for five countries: Russia (double-entry), Mongolia, China, Kazakhstan and Usbekistan (double-entry). As Veronika lives in Vienna, she could easily go to the embassies to get all the visas for us.
For Russia and Kazakstan we needed a LOI (letter of invitation). Single entry Kazakh visa is available without LOI, but we needed double entry.
The business visa invitation for Russia we got from a travel agency in Vienna, as well as the touris visa invitation for Kazakhstan. For Kazakhstan it was necessary to book a hotel accomodation for at least three nights to get the visa support (for two months).
