A separate story about my taxi experience.

At the airport exit, they offer to get you to the city center for $35. Supposedly official taxi. Seems like they have a special rate for white people.

Taking Uber costs just $5. That's a 7 times difference! Though, Uber isn't allowed to stop right at the terminal exit. There's a special parking lot a hundred meters away (:

But the drive was really weird: high beams were on (!), the parking brake wasn't released (!!), and the empty tank warning light was flashing like crazy (!!!). I was honestly already preparing to push the car to the nearest gas station, but it worked out.
