I have two passports from different countries and am trying to understand where can I travel now. Is there a publicly available map of countries open for visitors by passport country that I can use to see what are my options? I was pretty sure such a thing should exist, but cannot easily find any.
Maybe at least there're maps for specific passports? Mine are Russian and American.
If there's no such thing, I'd be down to build one, let me know if interested to collaborate :)
I understand that you are not EU, but this exists for EU (search for Re-open EU on Google)
I don't think that the problem is building it; it's updating and maintaining it as laws could change day by day. For example a while ago Germany restricted entry from certain provinces of the Netherlands, but not the entire country. So if you had a website you would have had to update that, not for the whole country, but for some regions.
Check this one too (search on Google for skyscanner covid restrictions)
Oh, this looks like what I was looking for: www.skyscanner.com/travel-restrictions
Not sure if this is by passport or country of departure though, likely the latter.
Thanks Amin. Agree this would take effort to maintain. But given good data sources, shouldn't be very hard, just labor intensive.
Province-level details make it more complicated though :(
Try Passport Index
Oh, this is great, thanks! I wish they'd have a map to show countries by your passport.
So far I found a map on Kayak (/travel-restrictions) but it doesn't allow to pick my passport country, I think, so is pretty useless.
I am an English/American currently in Israel, and heading in a week to Georgia/Armenia for two weeks and then want to head to Russia for a week.
As I am only in Israel for another week, would it be possible to apply for the visa in Israel and ask to receive it in Armenia (my last stop before I want to go to Russia)?
Or perhaps there is another better option that I have available?
I can’t speak for Israel but I was in Bangkok once at the Russian consulate and they said 5 days turn around time. I said I needed my passport to fly back to phuket and can’t wait that long and the manager said for 20$ he will do express next day. Probably best to check with the consulate you intend on going, and give it a try in person too.

Based on Rostov-on-Don's cost of living, here's selected remote jobs that would cover your costs:
This is my hometown and a city I lived in for around 20 years of my life. If you want a place with a climate much warmer that Moscow and lower prices - look no further. This town would be great for you. In terms of speaking the language - you need to know Russian at certain degree, otherwise it might a bit a hard for you to navigate in the city. The main street of the city is Krasnaya street and you can take a bike and go through the whole street and enjoy the beauty and the peace of the city.

Almost no English, even with young people. Russian is preferred language even through there is a very strong anti-Russia/anti-Putin sentiment in the city, and rightfully so.
