'''Ukraine''' is one of the biggest countries in [[Europe]]. Hitchhiking works pretty well here, although areas it seems to have become more difficult since the war with Russia began in 2014. Areas like the Crimean peninsula (which you can now only access via Russia as a foreigner) can be quite challenging uncomfortable to hitch during the hot summer monthsdue to the heat. You can hitchhike anywhere along the roadside, even on real motorway like the [[Kyiv]]-[[Odessa]] road. The first two letters of the Ukrainian number plates indicate the region which can be helpful for finding a ride in the right direction.

Of course you can get stuck easily on the motorway next to a turn-off from the main road because of nightfall. But there is also nice night-traffic of trucks caused by warm weather from May to September. Usually, there are some gas stations near to such places and there some favorite and famous places for stops known by drivers – something like unofficial rest-stations (there are no official but a lot of unofficial ones). You can easily find something to eat and to drink there and at almost all gas-stations there are night-24 hour shops. You can eat in some restaurants on the road-restaurants, they may be not expensive for foreigners from countries like which are significantly cheaper than in the EU states – you can probably have some - a nice dinner there meal for USaround $7–10 (2008)5, or a baguette and cheese for much less.
