I've got 2 hours to waste until my next train so let's have a little fun
Ask a westerner who has been traveling through Ukraine for the last several weeks anything.
I should address a few topics beforehand though
1) Slavsquat is definitely not a meme. I've even seen qt girls squatting
2) Tracksuits are also not a meme. They're real and bountiful
3) Slav toilets are just a hole in the ground. No seat and no toilet paper in sight
4) Everything is crazily cheaper. Like unimaginablely cheap
5) The water gives you severe diarrhea
6) Babushkas are everywhere
7) 90% of the time I try to post on 4chan I get a notice that my country is blocked from posting. Only rarely do I find wifi or 4g connections that allow me to post
So let's begin
So Ukraine is a shithole? Nothing new desu
How many encounters have you had with pickpockets and muggers, scammers and people demanding bribes or threatening to fuck you up for seemingly no reason at all?
>>59889643
>ukraine
no such thing
>>59889720
I wouldn't say it's a shithole. There's plenty of gems, the girls are pretty, life is super cheap, the people are nice, and the food is good. Infrastructure and some social norms are backwards though. It's like this country is stuck socially, fashionably, and culturally in 1991.
>>59889643
Post some pics brah
>>59889643
That's sounds exactly like my experience in Ukraine 5 years ago. Good to see that some things don't change.
>>59889798
No encounters with scammers, pickpocketters, muggers, extortions, bribes, etc. I feel more safe here than in my own home city desu. Only minor problem I have is taxi drivers charging me higher than normal rates and saying that they don't have change but then again the total fee is like 4€ for a 15 minute ride so it doesn't bother me much.
>>59889869
I've got plenty to post but I'm posting from mobile as my wifi is blocked from posting on 4chan. I'll try to upload some but it will be slow
Have some slav toilets :^)
Apparently the largest KFC in the world is in Kiev
Maiden was kind of cool but for a national icon is was quite dirty.
This is the international bus station in Lviv. Didn't even have paved roads
>>59890414
Holy shit it looks exactly like it was 5 years ago. They still use roads made by interwar Poland in 30s.
>>59890488
The old town was quite nice though.
>>59890488
To be fair some of our roads are almost untouched since Germans left them over 70 years ago.
Picrel- A18. The left line has been rebuild but the right one didn't.
I saw EU flags everywhere even though they can't into EU
>>59890663
I remember that road. That was the most painful 45 minute ride of my life
>>59890712
gotta fake it till you make it
>>59890712
>political LARPing
did you see any street hookers?
fuck any?
>>59890562
Gee I wonder who built it.
Were there people selling old commie army uniforms and other antiques there? I bought a commie hat back there.
They even had a pro EU concert while I was there
>>59890835
[butthurt]austrians and italians[/butthurt]
>>59889643
So except prices and toilets its like poland
Got it
>>59890906
Sure :^)
>>59890909
And Czechia 2bh
>>59890186
Gross
>>59890811
Yes I saw plenty of hookers but no I didn't fuck any, unless you count buying dinner and drinks as paying for sex.
>>59890835
In Kiev, yes. I didn't see any commie stuff in Lviv. I saw more white power symbols and Swastikas than hammer and sickles. Pic related is a big market street in Kiev full of commie and nazi stuffs. Probably all fakes though.
>>59889643
>4g
>ukraine
Comrade, hohol I see in you.
>>59890835
Stop bullying Ukraine you prick
>>59889834
>the girls are pretty
Because the ugly ones simply do not reproduce, they die out.
>life is super cheap
Because it's a shithole. Good places to live are never cheap.
>the people are nice
kek
>and the food is good
Tastes like shit
>>59891026
Sehr gross
>>59891086
>hookers
>buying dinner and drinks
What did he mean by this?
>>59891146
I'm not, just stating facts
>>59891245
He invited a girl for a dinner and they ended up in bed I guess
>>59891125
It may not be 4g but it's something and it works. I paid 10UAH (or about 0,40€) for 500mb
>>59891243
FÜR DICH
>>59891245
He hooked up with a girl after taking her to a restaurant for a date, I guess.
>>59891125
We have commerical LTE for years so your map is bs
>>59891209
t. R*ssian diaspora
Odessa was quite nice
>>59891125
>UK
>France
>Italy
>Spain
AHAHAHAHAHAH
There were homeless and stray animals EVERYWHERE. Stray cats and dogs would wander around the cities and ignore humans. Sometimes they even rode the trams/buses and no one gave a shit. Was pretty odd
>>59889643
Idk why everyone always bully Ukraine
>>59891652
How were the prices there? I remember it used to be ~5 UAH for a beer and ~10 UAH for a pack of cigarettes. Unreal but probably this changed due to inflation
Took a 10 hour train ride from Kiev to Odessa. About 4 hours into the journey we stopped at some town so babushkas could sell us local fish and baked goods.
>>59891790
Crazy cheap. I remember buying a huge plate of pasta in a restaurant for about 1,20€. I had a steak dinner and I also paid for another person in an upscale restaurant and paid less than 10€. A loaf of bread was 3UAH. I don't smoke but I think a pack of cigarettes is 12UAH compared to the 5,90€ in my country. The Lviv metro cost 2UAH to ride. A 500km train ticket was about 8€
Okay, I'm going to go board my train now. Ask me some more questions and I'll answer them once I get seated.
>>59891790
now 10-15 and 15-20
you can find cheaper tho, but they're shit
homeless are a real fucking problem (i'm from Lviv), but in my town not so much
Kiev tho... every fucking tube station
what are you doing there
>>59892014
>Zhmerynka
meme town
>>59891949
>The Lviv metro
ehhh wut
you mean Lviv Tram, right? Because Lviv Metro is also a meme
>>59890042
squat toilets are much better to poop from, and you're expected to bring your own TP with you.
now the part that they dont have doors, and you see old man balls, and shit hanging out the ass is kinda lame.
former ukie reporting in.
>>59890414
Gobble stone > asphalt
>>59892411
but they should be used only for peeing
>>59892480
Proper new gobble stone > asphalt
>>59891086
Is that the Andrey spusk street?
>>59892137
Decided to see it for myself. I've already seen most of Europe but never Ukraine. Thought about it one day and booked a ticket the next. I like a bit of adventure in my life.
>>59892203
Yeah I mean tram. Metro in my language means any public transportation that uses rail.
>>59892411
Oh trust me, I haven't yet once dared to poop in public here.
>>59892481
So they're basically horizontal urinals?
>>59892611
i mean, every shitty restaurant has a proper toilet, at least in my town
>using public toilets in slavstates
>ever
>>59892552
I think so. Can't google it as im on a slow mobile but its the famous street for markets and shopping.
>>59892524
that's implied
hell, even old worn out stone streets are better than anything asphalt can make. unless cunts steal the bricks.
>>59892611
They have paid toilets for pooping.
Do they still not put lids on drinks at fast food joints if its not to go?
and whats your background? are you a ukrainian national? what brings you to ukraine?
>>59892689
> having irritable bowel syndrome in ukraine
>>59892857
just go to fucking Pyalnia and sit in toilet, you'll have a good poop and troll whole bunch of people who come there to take a leak
Ukraina you mean shit copy of Poland?
>>59890186
Is this the one behind the train station ?
>>59890306
There's still some burn marks from the protests.
>>59892857
IBS with public squat toilet and no doors rofl.
>>59892776
I'm a German who grew up in America. I didn't eat fast food so I'm not sure about the lids. I just wanted to see something new and to travel.
>>59889643
why don't you go to donbass and shoot up some commies
why Ukrainians so racist? I dated one and all of her friends disliked blacks too.
Also, is it true that women approach western looking men in bars to seduce him for a visa?
>>59893226
They usually with doors. In some rural places toilets always empty.
>>59893428
>why Ukrainians so racist? I dated one and all of her friends disliked blacks too.
Bydlo males
>Also, is it true that women approach western looking men in bars to seduce him for a visa?
Bydlo females.
>>59893201
Yeah, behind Kiev Vokzalna. At Maiden you could still see burn marks on buildings, bullet holes in buildings, and grafitti. Some of the government buildings have fresh paint lines covering the burns such as the white building on the left.
>>59890186
poetry
>>59893322
I value my life.
>>59893428
I don't know too much about the racism but a few girls I met enjoyed saying the word "nigger."
And let's just say it was really easy getting women once they knew I was a westerner. I tried out tinder while in Ukraine and I had to do was state my westernness and I literally matched with every one I swiped right on. I'm a 20 year old solo traveling guy so usually they just were curious and wanted to know why the hell I was in Ukraine. A big problem is that almost no one in Ukraine speaks decent English so the language barrier is a problem.
>>59893739
1. Are you handsome ?
2. Do you speak any Slavic language?
>>59893739
going off on this, what does it feel like to be in a country that's at war with itself?
where you from lad?
where was your favourite place?
did you have to get a visa?
>>59891125
that map is really old
>>59893858
I wouldn't say I'm ugly nor handsome. I would say I'm average plus some. But the thing is that I look quite Germanic and aryan and this is what catches people's attention. I also dress nicely and western. I literally had a girl come up to me in a bar because she assumed I was foreign.
I do not speak any slavic languages, only English, German, and a little french. I found more babushkas that spoke German that English.
>>59893914
I honestly see no sign of war in the west or south. Would never have known. However, I do see lots of men traveling around in military uniforms and big deployment bags.
>>59893915
I'm German born but my parents emigrated to the US so I grew up there. Lviv was by far my favourite place in Ukraine. Odessa is a close second. I thought the beach in Odessa would be nice but it's dirty and lots of wastes potential. The city is awesome though.
Just letting you guys know that I am on the train now with bad connection so if I stop posting it's because I can't connect.
Any others anons willing to visit Ukraine this summer? I could accompany you for free.
>>59894651
wew lad this is 4chan
But I actually was thinking about that, prices are nice and I really need to get out of here for a while.
>>59894651
How are the universities there,
Do you know
>>59894651
I need to go back. Its been... 16 years.
But I dont have enough time off. I cant do a 2 week stay. I need to go for at least a month, maybe 3 weeks.
>>59891549
Did you push a baby carriage down a set of stairs?
>>59889643
Have you squatted and smoked and gambled with the Russians in Donetsk yet?
>>59894833
A Lot of blacks and indians(true indians from India).
>>59894879
I didn't get it.
How much did lodging cost per week? Where did you stay (hotel, hostel, airbnb, camping)?
>>59894651
I will definitely be returning. I have had such a fun time while here. I didn't get to see or do nearly as much as I would have liked.
>>59895257
I like your courage.
>>59895052
Unfortunately at this time I'm not allowed into eastern cities like Donetsk.
>>59895251
Airbnb and staying with a friend. I only rented full private apartments and spent between 10-20€ a night. All of the airbnbs were modern and clean with central locations.
OP did you travel alone and just go to hostels or what?
>>59895425
All of my traveling so far has been solo. I stayed in private Airbnbs at night. Never felt lonely at all because the people here are so friendly and open and the girls were actually approachable unlike in the west.
>>59891595
it's bullshit I using 4g as I write this
What's interesting to do in Lviv?
Do the people you see there hate Russia?
>>59895712
How does he know that?
>>59890414
Haha. This looks worse than rural China.
>>59895806
By talking to people? People love to talk about their feelings.
>>59890414
>those buses
lmao
>>59896065
What's wrong with Etalons?
>>59895599
Are you rooting birds that are way fit senpai?
Did you tee up a chick or two before you arrived?
>>59896197
Nothing its just that they look like they come straight from the 50s
>>59896065
It's for the villagers, we also have big ones double deckers for long travels.
>>59895897
>By talking to people?
With babushkas using german?
>>59896333
> brick design
> 50s
>>59895896
As if the Norwegian roads are anything to brag about.
If some of you guys interested in my offering >>59894651 i'm going to make a thread on /trv later.
>>59897423
If I wasnt poor retard I would probably go. alas I cant
>>59896683
No, but the buses are more modern.
>>59896564
>belaroosse
>>59889643
Where are you going Taras? Deep into the Steppes, To hunt some turks with your shashka?
>>59897423
how do you get in to Ukraine?
i'm interrailing later in the year but fucking ukraine isn't available.
>>59897423
I might be, depends on when and if I trust you to not harvest my organs or sell me as a sex slave.
>>59898224
Bus from the Poland will do for sure.
>>59898320
no, i mean to fly in, do you need some special visa?
to get into russia you need a visa.
>>59898359
schengen countries don't need a visa
oh wait :^)
>>59889643
I don't know if the question has already been aske but assuming you don't speak Ukranian or Russian how did you communicate with the locals ?
>>59898427
i've got a british and an irish passport :^)
>>59898480
so not schengen lmao
>>59898261
Why would i do it? It's much safer to take off organs from donbass separatists and sell ukrainian females.
>>59898359
Ofc not, are you kidding me?
nigger in russian is just african. it can be used offensively and often is but don't confuse with american meaning.
>>59898480
get rekt, this is the best combo
>>59898618
>no american pp
>pointless swissport
why?
>>59898669
>swissport
>pointless
dude neutrality lmao
>>59898517
Fair enough, I'm in depending on when. Also do I need any special visa or something like that?
>>59892411
Dumb backwards ukeshit. Your inferior toilets are a joke. Where do you keep your toilet paper? Up your ass? Fuck you
>>59898798
How is he supposed to know? :^)
Takes less than a minute to google
>>59897977
Shouldn't you be looking for food right now?
>>59889643
How good are the whores ?
Because let's face it, that's the only reason westerners visit ukraine.
Did you get to fly in an Antonov?
>>59898798
>special visa
Same as UK. >>59898572
>depending on when
Whenever you want during this summer.
>>59898933
They might get the fresh pussy for free without much effort.
>>59898618
Best passport coming through
>>59899129
not if they are autistic virgins like most who visit for this stuff are.
>no visa required
Ukraine here I come. Unless they ban me at the border for having a Russian visa in my passport.
>>59899212
You can probably go visa-free to Belarus if you live close to border. I wish I could too.
>>59899212
>>59899282
>They can't go visa-free to Russia
kek
>>59894651
why would i want to meet and live with an anon irl lmao
>>59898959
Sounds good. I'l write more in the /trv/ thread, would be fun to do the same time as some other anons.
>>59899282
Nope. I still need a visa.
>>59899348
>he can't visit the US and Canada visa-free
kęk
>>59899348
At least I can afford travels lmao
>>59899518
So can I faggot.
>>59899499
But see, difference being you visited Russia and want to visit Russia, while I'd rather visit Mongolia than USA or Canada.
>>59899403
>live
More like travel across the country and have some fun.
>>59890875
wew
but eu falling bro.
>>59899348
Looks great for travel to the east. The west (brits and north america) is being cunts by making you apply for visas.
going there in november or october
what to visit apart in kiev?
>>59900175
Brits are being a cunts, but USA is just being USA.
Even some EU nations have to get visas to visit USA
Poland for example
kek
