Aswell as Orissa even exists in India thusands of years before Orissa popped up in Ukraine people smile on there faces. However for people that cant so much of history and https://itstep.org/ communicate with people . I would never suggest anyone that is unsure of himself to go to Kiev. You need to show that your not afraid and can take a fight if you need.

I am an Indian and have visited Ukraine many times, especially Kiev. I have found the people extremely friendly and pleasant. Of course you have to stay away from drunkards any time of day ukrainian it school or night. I am only curious if there is any spillover of violence due to the problems in eastern Ukraine. Personally I don’t believe that you’re likely to encounter any racism is Kiev.

There are more than 63,000 students from 130 countries of the world now. A lot of non-government companies try to help students from all over the world apply to one of the universities in Ukraine. An example of this is the Ukrainian Educational Agency. I have been to Kiev (two times – each time lasting a month) back in February and August 2009. The language barrier would present a problem to the single traveller like me, however I was not afraid.

You should not go outside at night by yourself though if you are travelling by yourself. I heard about the wallet scam and while I was on my way to the hotel (at night time, my mistake) someone threw a wallet close to my feet. I quickly walked faster and faster towards the hotel and did not look back. Whoever did it must have been sitting in one of those cars that you see parked all the time on the sidewalk.

And about Ukrainian girls, they are loyal to you, if you treat them good. I became jobless and without money for already 4 years, because of the world crisis. My Ukrainian wife does still love me and stick with me through my bad times. She loves me, because I treat her very well.

This is just Russian propaganda to justify their actions in Ukraine. I have just come back from Kiev after a few weeks and made many friends, both local and otherwise. I am stunned by the desperate drivel from all these ‘men’ who think that no matter what they look like and act like, a Ukrainian supermodel is just lying on her back waiting for them. First, the women on the dating sites you have probably been browsing are all professional photo models and the pictures have been Photoshopped.

Some do themselves up nicely to go out to the clubs (work out how they pay for the expensive shoes and bags). The others often have a good brain on their shoulders and can see through sex tourists. With the massive expectations that some of the comments demonstrate I expect there may soon be a few disappointed Indian boys returning home. If you go bottom pinching and harass the girls and treat them like meat then expect a response.

What I was afraid of was the groups of wild dogs roaming around in the city. I could see them from my 14th floor room at the Rus which was a very nice hotel. Their breakfast was delicious and abundant.

I don’t know what ‘racism seen on the news’ you are referring to. You may be referring to claims that all Ukrainians are fascists.

I ended up marrying a very nice and decent girl from there. In general if you are honest with yourself you will attract honest people. That is why you are beaten up, not because of racism.

• With her I studied vocabulary and grammar, which was very helpful in improving my language level.
• My professor, Mariana [the school’s academic director] went to the University of Michigan on the Fulbright program.
• When I came to the school, I had basic knowledge.
• Every day the other students and I spoke only in Ukrainian.
• This increase reflects the growing popularity of Ukraine as a study destination for students from Asia and Africa, particularly among medical students.

These sites heavily promote the myth of the Ukrainian girl just waiting to be whisked off anywhere by anyone just so as to be ‘saved’. The reality is that the girls in Ukraine are just like the girls anywhere else in Europe. Pretty and less pretty ones and normal (in daylight) and in every shape and size.

I have encountered some racism notably when myself & an Indian friend were not allowed into several nightclubs(& I believe Shooters was one of them) because we were ‘drunk’ when we weren’t. It was evidently because of his skin colour. However he himself had been in the city working for 6 months & this was only the second time it had occurred so it is not endemic although it was very annoying & humiliating,particularly for him. Also was walking with a girl when she stopped & started pointing & laughing at some passers by saying ‘Ch-ee-na’ then making slanty eye impressions when clearly I failed top see what there was to be excited about. I realised that the people were Chinese but she was the only one on the very busy street doing it & she was from a provincial town where there were no/few ethnics so I assume it was just the novelty of it for her.

If you want to go and appreciate the culture and the people and history then you will enjoy it. If you want to go pay for sex then just stay at home and do it. If you want an instant bride other than your own ethnicity and are rich enough and look good (there seems to be a crazy assumption here that the girls are blind) then you may just end up being very lucky. But be prepared for betrayal, especially if you don’t treat them well. I recently spent a month in Ukraine in both Kiev and Vinnitsa visiting my partners family.

I have also visited Kiev on 3 separate occasions and Odessa. I agree with everything you have written. People, DO NOT be put off visiting the Ukraine, it is the same with all foreign travel, just act normal and the Ukraine people will be fine. I have found it to be a wonderful experience on each time I have been there.

Ukraine knows foreigners and coloured people since soviet times. People from Cuba, Angola, Vietnam, ukrainian it school Cambodja came a lot here. So it is more about your behaviour, than that people are racists.

But I don’t go to places where I am not going to be accepted. I usually stay in tourist areas and at the bigger hotels. I only ran into an issue in Odessa, where a skinhead type was staring at me. But dude, some of the most wonderful people I have ever met were in Ukraine. My feelings of Kiev is if you stand your marks and dont getting involved in usless arguments.

However what worked for me was to counter how many striken similiarites in the Hindi/indian language and Slavic languages . Aswell as Slavic folklore and culture is very similar to the Hinduism.

They were probably just watching who they would pick on. Carry a bunch of bills on you in your back pocket and some https://deveducation.com/ change if someone really means to attack you. Just give them all your bills (make them in small denominations).

In the hotel they offer you a safe, but you never know either. Hide your documents in your shoes I guess if you need to be outside. The dogs I noticed come out late at night.

I would also add that when Nik & I were playing pool with the locals in the bar none of them were bothered by his skin colour so again I think it is just a few uneducated people. It is also worth noting that a lot of people come to work in Kiev from the country & I was informed more than once that these https://deveducation.com/ people are the issue. Your average main city dweller is accustomed to seeing different ethnicities. After reading a lot of peoples ‘reports’ on here I would never visit Kiev or the Ukraine,had I not already visited many times & know the vast bulk of these to be false or more likely exaggerated.

I was afraid because in my pouch I was carrying my money and my passport with credit cards and other identifications. It would have been a real problem to lose them.
