Traveling to Ukraine in the next 1-4 months by Guest7832
If anyone travelled recently from the USA, what recommendations would you provide. Companies for booking accommodations, or best route to take. Thank you for your responses.
I don't recommend anyone going to Ukraine unless it is absolutely necessary. There is a rumor Russians will have a major attack again in Feb or March. It is easy to become a collateral damage. Read More
