Welcome to Ukraine.com

I'm originally from Odessa, live in Toronto, Canada.
Do you have friends in Odessa, or will you be visiting just as a tourist? If you have any spesific questions, ask them here

However never having traveled before I'm a little nervouse. Just was hoping for some general advice. Like there attitude twords tourists etc.. Also I heard it might be dangerous on the trains, is this true? Thanks

Where are you traveling from? What is your age, if not a secret? You do not need to take a train, Odessa has an international airport.

I would be leaving from the U.S. I can only seeem to find flights into Odessa and not any return. It seems I would get to see more of the country by train anyhow, right? It is no secret that I'm 26.

I love traveling on trains, especially from Kiev to Odessa and across Russia on the Transsiberian Railway, very beautiful! I have never had a problem.

If you have a girlfriend in Odessa, maby she can help you with finding a place to stay.

Girlfrind, no. I was also made aware it is altogether my responsibility to find a place to stay. Any suggestions?
