July 2018
Odessa: a lovely town. Hornet was active and I got several messages during my 3-day stay. Bar Libertin was empty. I was told that Arcadia was the place that gays gather but I didn't check it out.
Kiev: beautiful churches and interesting side tours. Both Grindr and Hornet were quite busy (Hornet busier) as I got many messages during my stay. 40-70 US dollars typical. Disco Lift is very popular at weekend. Living cost in Kiev is low. Kiev is a good city to visit for fun and for travel.
Minsk: quiet comparing to Kiev. I just got a couple of messages in Hornet. There are not many attractions in the city either.
