Dear Patreons! I will reply the notes and post artworks asap! Currently I’m stuck in Istanbul all alone with no money because my credit cards don’t work here and the rouble cash cannot be exchanged. I was fleeing with my cat to Batumi, but due to the war the Moscow-Istanbul flight took 6 hours instead of 4 and I was late to my second flight from Istanbul to Batumi. And these idiots don’t give me my money back or offer another plane! Grr!

I don’t know what to do now…

Is there a Western Union kiosk or store there?

Viiz

Damn isn't there anyway to help?

Dimitri

oh damn Iskra :( I'm worried about you, the situation is difficult. I hope you will soon be safe and give us news of your situation

Fenris wolf

Let me know if I can help I'm sorry

Alex J Waddington

Get to your embassy, they can help with currency exchange and often in cases of civil unrest will even help you get where you need to go.

I highly doubt they will be of much help right now with the current state of propaganda in Russia.

Were the Moscow-Istanbul tickets and Istanbul-Batumi ones from the same company? If yes, then it is up to them to ensure that they fulfill their contractual obligations. If the tickets were not from the same company, then, unfortunately, the Istanbul-Batumi ticket is no longer valid, but they can give you another one - it depends on their rules. From which airline was the Istanbul-Batumi ticket?

Ashragon

I'm sorry to hear that. :( I've searched for money transfer services near the airport. Sadly they are all closed until tomorrow.

Breef

I'm sorry, hoping for the best for you &lt;3

I looked it up, I can transfer to a bank account but that doesnt work if your cards are frozen.

Uuu, this is bad. How to help ? Money for patrona is bot big problem I guess but is IT realu enough. Embassy can help indeed. They can sat at least where to change money.

Techorb

Wish you all the possible best... if we can help, just say so

Leo Drago

God, I don't even know what to say or how to support you in this situation...

Duster

Let us know if the situation changes and how best we can help, Iskra!

Israel

Let us know how we can help you! There should still be ways to transfer money to you

LePetitHelvète

My god, this is terrible. I don't know what to say either, I was worried about you as soon as this conflict started, but I didn't expect this situation. You have all my support Iskra, Take good care of yourself

Cody J

Let us know if we can help. Would be glad to. ❤ Will be hoping for the Best.

Spartan277

Oh.. Oh shit. Well don't worry about the sending the stuff, lets find out a way to help you out!

Baron Blackfox

I was worried about you, after reading about worsening situation in Russia, because of Ukraine invasion, sanctions, now russia blocking social media sites, ... First thing that comes to my mind, is trying to ask on russian embassy.. ye but then again I don't know, because of current situation. Damn reading this makes me anxious. Think embassy would the first thing I could think of. After that I don't know, ask local authorities for help? Try money transfer service tomorrow, when they open, like Ashragon said?

Artica

I would reach out to the embassy. Hopefully you're able to find a way :(

Synariel

Please tell us if we can help in any way, we can send money via PayPal or western union

rockpaperpunch

That is terrible! If their is anything we can do, let us know! I'll be praying for you!

Alethila

I'm sorry to hear, I hope everything will be okay for you going forward and we're always here if you need anything extra, you make amazing art!

Diesel Benson

I hope things work out for you, if you need anything, just send a message, I will do what I can. Stay safe

The Nubus

The website states that there are foreign exchange offices that provide money transfer services in the airport. If you tell us which are available maybe we can help.

Ascender

We're not dealing with an office in the States or Russia. I doubt Turkey's consumer-protection laws are nearly as helpful.

Ascender

It looks like Western Union has a number of offices in Istanbul, if you can get to one, some of us can send money that way.

Ascender

Guys, if anyone can help, flights between Istanbul and Batumi are about $400. I'd book it myself, but I'm out of work... https://www.expedia.com/Flights-Search?flight-type=on&amp;mode=search&amp;trip=oneway&amp;leg1=from%3AIstanbul%2C+Turkey+%28IST%29%2Cto%3ABatumi%2C+Georgia+%28BUS%29%2Cdeparture%3A3%2F5%2F2022TANYT&amp;options=cabinclass%3Aeconomy&amp;passengers=children%3A0%2Cadults%3A1%2Cseniors%3A0%2Cinfantinlap%3AY&amp;fromDate=3%2F5%2F2022&amp;d1=2022-03-05

Ashragon

Hey Iskra, I really hope you are okay.

LandingZone

I see this post was 12 hours ago. Did you manage to book a flight?

Guruthos42

Hey Iskra. Please don't stress yourself about any delays right now. This is an awful situation to find yourself in. I hope you have since found a solution, but if not please do not hesitate to ask for help.

Darwinskeeper

Please let us know if there is a way to help.
