Ukraine 25. May - 15. June - how to start?

thanks,
only 2 days in the Bukkovina - I have to spend 3 weeks and wonder if this is too long.
Can I also cross a border near Rakhiv?

I am not familiar with Rakhiv crossing, perhaps someone else can chime in. As far as the number of days, since the buses are daily you can always leave earlier or later if needed. Chernivtsi and Suceava both used to be part of the same country and it's very interesting to compare the current northern Bukovina with the Southern, all 20th century history nonwithstanding.

Note! Rakhiv is one of the places which is considered the geographical centre of Europe

Yes, Shimon. I will bow when I am in Rakhiv :)
So now I made my plans -
stay the first week, its the last week in May, in Ukraine, Kiev and Carpaten.
From Rakhiv I cross to Sighetu, Maramures -> Bukovina and the colorful manasteries -> Moldawia/Transnist. and then back to Kiev.

In Romania I can stretch the time - so 3 weeks all in all would not be too long.
Now I do have a better feeling than spending all the time in Ukraine. I just hope it will not rain (too much).
Sharanam and Shimon, I thank you for your help.

You are welcome! Good luck!

Best of luck with your trip!

Back home again.
From Kiev I went to KP by night train - to Yaremche -> Rakhiv.

Near Rakhiv I crossed the border to Sighetu - went to Guro Humorului - Iasi
crossed the border to Moldava, Chisinau, <-> Transnistria

by nighttrain I returned to Kiev, ca 17 hours Kupe
at night I went to the airport till check in early next morning.

Most I liked Ukraine and Moldavia,
in the upper part of Romania is a lack of public transport, I stuck in places, it rained and I met no travellers at all.

I was very happy to do the effort to learn to read the cyrillic alphabet an learned some phrases - even just to amuse people, but I got always the necessary help and people were friendly.

I thank for your help.

ok, if you liked ukraine may be next time you will go to crimea, here is an image for your troubled slumber :-)
