Hi Anatoly, you can probably plan a train journey using the German rail website - say Minsk to Berlin which takes about 19 hours. Birmingham is probably another 10 hours by train from there (via Cologne and Brussels) http://www.bahn.de/i/view/GBR/en/index.shtml But that won't be cheap because of the channel tunnel trains. Might be better getting to Poland and getting a coach. It looks like Bialystok - London is a single route: http://www.eurolinespolska.pl/index.php > Speaking about alternatives, does anybody how long it could take to > hitchhike through > the Europe from Poland to UK these days?

Good luck with your travels!
