Maybe we could put UKRAINE in Top Suggestions, to be chosen: Kiev, Odesa or Lviv?
Not cool: * + People from many eastern countries could take part - there are not many events where East meets West - it is powerful!* + not expensive* + success would stop bad gossip about hitching in Ukr* - people from non-European countries like Australia and Israel need a visa for the Ukraine.* +/_ Do you speak russian/ukrainian?? Have to know at least basics.
=Kiev=
===Cool===
*Well known name, everyone can remember where he have to go
*The most cosmopolitan of the three
===Not cool===
*Do you speak Russian or Ukrainian ?
*Far away from the border. The roads are not so good and hitching will be slow.

*Hard difficulties to cross the border from Transnistria
*Comment from [[User:Sitarane|Julien]]: Transnitria seems to be the border between Moldova and the general direction of Odesa. There is no border crossing between Romania and the Ukraine south from Moldova/Transnistria.*Do you speak Russian or Ukrainian?
=Lviv=
*SAFER (and easier) access - especially for female hitchhikers!
*Historically international city, lost its spirit after the wars... still the representatives 100 nationalities and ethnic groups live on the territory L'viv
*You can hitch to Lviv speaking only polish - former polish area
===Not cool===
*Do you speak Russian or Ukrainian ?<br>
=Comments=
* We didn't talk much about Kiev but I talked today with two ukrainian kids, one of them with a HH background that would put Ludo to shame, and they seemed to think Kiev was a better idea. It being more multicultural than the two others.
