>>22270still mad about that conference?Not him, but Crimea is overpriced because for people with clearance level (many of military officers, FSB, MIC workers) it's the only possible choice as they can't leave the country until the clearance expires. Or because they have state-subsidized vacations there like gf's parents. They love Yalta and want to move there when their youngest child goes to college.
Georgia is overpriced too, but for another reason. Because people who left Russia in 2022 can't get into better country. So it's a pretty curious place, having vegan queer cafes and horizontal safe spaces. Like Tangier was for beatniks.
Good options for ordinary Russian (poorfag without Schengen visa) are Thailand and Turkey.
