The average earnings at my factory is 500-600UHR (90-110$) per one month. But we live.
Certainly, we have other scale of prices.

Lilly is on a distinguished road
You can never have enough money in the Ukraine. Bring as much as you can carry. Tourists usually pay up to 4 times what the natives pay. They can spot you a mile away.

What about Dollars / Euros ?

When you say Tourists pay 4x the local rate . . .

Do you mean in Local Currency ? (er . . . what is the local currency ?)

What is the position if you take US Dollars or Euros

Do you still pay 4x or does the hard currency give you a good price ?

There is a saying in russian "A TOURIST, IS STILL A TOURIST IN AFRICA" !

No matter how well you disguise or what currency you have .. people will try to rip you off!

Life there is hard...people must make money...If you want to be safe there - dont make a big fuss about the fact that you are a tourist. Stay low...and if someone is trying to rip you off move on!! Cause you might have some trouble with the "mafia" or the new russians.

Take US dollars, cause everything there is in that currency .. the national currency is not worth living on!

AND NEVER TRUST ANYONE YOU SEE>>>>EVEN IF THEY ARE THE MOST INNOCEST PERSON YOU HAVE EVER MET!!!!!!
