Belarus.
 
One of the aspects of hosting children from families abroad is that sometimes an invitation to return the visit arrives by post or during the course of the children's stay by word of mouth.
On this page we have grouped together some photographs and short video clips to illustrate a little of what we have experienced during several visits. Each picture opens in a new frame with its own short commentary. We hope you enjoy navigating through this page and perhaps you yourself will make it out there to experience at first hand the way of life and the warm hospitality of the good people of Belarus.
