As mentioned yesterday, I arrived in Lviv at 6:30 yesterday morning-which is too early for ..... just about anything. So there was a 24 hour diner next to the train station, which had everything I was looking for-they accepted credit cards and ... Read more >

This trip has taken a different one the last few weeks.
For 90% of the trip, I went to places when I felt like going. I stayed as long as I felt like staying. I only moved on when I was ready. This has caused me to go to many interesting ... Read more >

The lady here at the hostel hates me. Maybe it is because I am older then the other guests. Maybe she thinks I'm ugly. How do I know?-because she asked me to go to the Odessa railway station to buy a ticket for tomorrow's journey to Kiev. She even wrote ... Read more >
