Unlocking the front door to a FSU apartment can be a Chinese puzzle, usually involving two very different keys of an archaic design.   One time in Dnepropetrovsk, the corridor light was out, and I could see as well as Stevie Wonder.   I had to leave and buy matches at a kiosk and then take care not to start a fire while using both hands to unlock the door.   

My phone would have sufficed however.


While in Kiev doing some paperwork for the embassy, I accidentally locked myself in the apartment.  Meaning, I lost the friggin key and it took me a couple of hours to find it in order to let myself out.  haha


The idea of needing a key to get OUT of the flat took some getting used too.  Not to mention the idea of trying to get out in case of a fire.   :o

I didn't see the TS was going to travel by trains.
Two flash lights impressed me :D


I took a pen flashlight and it was quite helpful.


Maybe Mendy needed two flashlights for his part time job.

Sandro, I'm not confident enough to add/edit the wiki, so will list this suggestion here in case you feel it should be added.
OK, done ;).
