Perhaps I am being naive. Maybe I should just get on a train straight to Belarus, which seems safe.

I chatted with a girl in the taxi - in Russian. She did not seem to think it was a good idea to travel to Ukraine alone but because of my bad Russian, it was not possible to have an in-depth conversation.
Once I was traveled to Crimea, not the first time though, I travel there quite often. When I went to my camp by bus I lost my wallet, (it just fell out of my pocket) with all the money I had for the travel. I felt really depressed. I borrowed some money from my friends and soon returned home. And as I returned my ex-girlfriend from Ukraine called me and said that someone had found my wallet and wanted return it me back with all the money in it! )) The phone number of my girlfriend occasionally was found in my wallet. So in Ukraine live enough of kind disinterested people. You should be just more careful in crowded places and everything will be Ok. Good luck in Ukraine I'm starting there tomorrow )
