Bucharest I'm assuming? I've spent time in Brasov. It's nice, you can even go see Vlad's castle!

Nah, actually Budapest. Initially it was supposed to be Bucharest but now for some reason they want us to go to Romania and then to Hungary for flights. I honestly don't know the reason.

So by they do you mean your employer? Are you heading state side?

I am the site lead so for some reason my team feels more comfortable flying from Budapest so that is what I was told to arrange. I am not sure about me. I have my wife and son here who can come to America with no issues but I also have Valya's parents and grandfather as well as sister and 3 kids so I am not sure if I am able to sponsor all of them as refugees. If I am then I will bring them all to TN and my sister will help me out with living conditions. A lot to figure out

Seems like something you'd want to do anonymously.

The Russian dude that owns the Chelsea soccer team is selling the team and will give all of the proceeds to the Ukrainian victims of the war.

Saw an article about how, allegedly, some Russian troops are laying down their weapons and surrendering, punching holes in their vehicles gas tanks, etc.

I guess they better hope Putin doesn't see that article. 😂

Yea, I put everything with an allegedly tag too...I read how they have army conscripts where it's mandatory to enlist at age 18. Then they took these kids, relocated them to spots to ready for the invasion over the last few months but also cut off all contact with their families and the outside world in general. So a lot of the videos you see of young soldiers surrendering is because they don't even really know why they are there, they're families don't know they're there, etc.

But again...allegedly.
