I’m sorry because if anyone a part from my mum 😛 is following the blog the order of the posts might cause some confusion… But here some pictures of the way we followed to enter Moldova from Ukraine. Many bikes and also some curiosities (stairs to cross the railway…) Today, from a basic camping near […]
Aún me quedaba un último post sobre Ucrania, y sobre Bielorrusia, en referencia a Chernóbil y sus voces. Como no tenía prácticamente idea sobre Chernóbil y justo antes de salir de viaje fui a comprar libros y guías para el viaje, el de ‘Voces de Chernóbil’ de Svetlana Alexiévich (Premio Nobel de Literatura 2015) me pareció […]
And suddenly this man called Victor Klenov shows up next to our camper, and we start talking immediately. He can talk English!! (and many other languages, but at least one of them in common with us, which in Ukraine has been difficult to find). He makes me think a lot of ‘Chipi Villar’ from Lloret: […]
The 2nd night near Odessa we ended up in a place where google maps announce a ‘camping’, but of course it wasn’t what we expected… In the end we were allowed to sleep in a kind of ‘bungalow park’ but for quite poor people (considering the conditions…). So we went to the beach in the […]
Before leaving Ukraine we visited Odessa. It’s quite a big city (around 1M inhabitants) and it has the biggest Ukrainian port. It was Friday night in July and that probably made traffic jams everywhere, but it was quite easy to park. We walked to see the famous Potemkin stairs, scenario of the film The Battleship Potemkin, […]
Something you can find at the supermarketin Ukraine. We did not buy any of them, although in Norway and Estonia we ate some…
Moving in Kiev is not that easy. It’s a big and hilly city. The deep underground is probably the best way to commute. It looks like the one from Saint Petersburg but even deeper! Hanna will compare the data later… In some station took us like 4 minutes using the mechanical stairs. Underground stations are […]
One of the days we spent in Kyiv we tried to be ‘real tourists’. As we know, the concept is quite difficult for us…. but what is even worse, it started raining cats and dogs and it continued for hours! 🙁 We visited 2 very interesting places. The 1st of them the Holodomor museum, about […]
One night in Kiev we left the kids with Tanya and Serguei and went to the city center to see some ‘night life’. It was on Wednesday night, so not the best day for the party, but we are not really party animals, so no problem! Sasha took us through the town, walking her way […]
Still many things to tell about Ukraine. But this post is just about two thoughts from being a tourist in Ukraine. Introductory data: the country is bigger than Spain (600.000 km2 vs 500.000) and it has a population around 45M inhabitants (more or less the same as Spain). So many land and many people! I could not […]
There is definately a lot to learn about this issue. I love (...)
