Russia & Ukraine Travel

The Eastern European dream

The Ukrainian Dream

One of Andy's most extraordinary journeys took him east to Russia and Ukraine — to the cities of Kharkiv and Moscow. This was travel at its most adventurous: navigating Cyrillic signage, limited disability infrastructure and a culture very different from Thailand.

This section tells the story of that journey — the challenges, the surprises, and the human connections made along the way.
