Poland - Ukraine - Romania - Hungary - Slovakia - Czech Rep.
I'm planning a trip May/early June 2009 and would like any advice that you can provide on a couple of issues:
- I've heard some "horror" stories about the time it takes at Ukrainian border crossings. Anyone have recent experience (I'll be traveling from Gdansk)?
- What's the protocol/etiquette at petrol stations in Eastern Europe? Anything different to Western Europe?
- I've got four days to get from Chernivisti in Ukraine to Prague. Any "must dos" betwixt and between?
- Being so close to the border, I'd quite like to take a day in Moldova (if only to get the sticker on my pannier!!!) whilst I'm in Chernivisti. Worth the hassle or not?
Many thanks!
