Ukraine Tips!

If you are from the EU remeber Ukraine isn´t part therefore the best option for mobile data is to buy a SIM card right at the airpot.

Bear in mind most locals do not speak a word of english and not all restaurants have an english menu either. My life saver was the google translator app that translate from your camera in the moment.

Try the chicken Kyiv!
