Russia
I was wondering if anyone has had any experiences with backpacking in
Russia, Ukraine, and any other former USSR countries. I have travelled extensively throughout eastern europe but never made it any further east than Romania. My wife is from Romania and when we were there visiting family a few years ago a friend of mine and I wanted to slip across the border into the Ukraine, but the Romanians said it was suicide to go there unless you know someone there and have a place to stay. Apparently crime is reaching staggering proportions there, particularly towards western tourists. Anyone have any stories? You can post it or email me directly at: (drop the (NOSPAM) - obvious reasons) Thanks in advance, ~Simon~ |
