As planned I haven’t really done much today. Breakfast at eleven in town, a couple of hours at the beach and then planning for the next part; Moldavia and Rumania. The water is nice and not that salty, a bit like the Baltic Sea, just a bit warmer.
Travelling alone you do think and makes reflections a lot. For instance, there are very few children around and hardly any strollers. Yesterday, on a sunday, you would find a lot of them in Stockholm, in cafés, shops etc. But here, I think I saw 4 strollers on the whole day. apparently, kids are not brought along as they are in Sweden.
Ukraine is very easy to calculate the cost for Swedish people travelling here, it’s about the same. Thus Ukraine is not as cheep as Belarus you still can find a lot of cheep food and drinks. Petrol is also very nice, about $ 1 per liter.
Tomorrow I’m off for Bender, if you are interested in history you would know why, otherwise you can read about iy here (Use google translate if don’t understand Swedish). Then I will go to Chişinău, capital of Moldavia. I’ve read about a nice hotel there and it is possible that I will stay one night. It all depends on how long the border passing will take. If border crossing runs smoothly I will go on to Rumania and try to find a nice Hotel in the mountains. I have no idea what Internet standard I will find in Moldavia so the blog could run silent for a day.
