Preparing for the journey. As my mom says,

What to expect from the Crimea? First of all, let us examine what is the Crimea and to make it edible. Crimea - is a peninsula on the Black Sea in Ukraine by, but with the status of autonomy. It is a place of exceptional beauty with nature, which may be compared with the best places in the Mediterranean. It impresses with its diversity and similarity to anything else. It is a constantly changing landscape, this two amazing sea, picturesque mountains and the vegetation. All of this combined into a single system to fascinate and encourage trapped in one place, and move on, to know and to enjoy. Crimea - is a nightmare administratively. Reload and Obsolete cities and local wars for power, which killed the mayors and managers. It is a place where your eyes can see endless corruption and inability to self-manage the consequences of the problems. You do not expect good service. I'll necktie tell you otherwise, there do not expect any service at all. If you are going to live in a hotel, from which pour out of the city a couple of times during the trip, and the rest of the time drink at the bar and use the other all-inclusive goodness, I say right away - this place is not for you. Travel to Turkey. Crimea is not a normal hotel, or rather they are inhuman but for big money. All the other hotels - this Soviet-style necktie sanatoriums. Value for Money brutally low. If you want a quiet holiday resort town, long way to walk with his second-half berth, seriously necktie enjoy and hope that the locals will not prevent the kind you repeat - this place is not for you. Travel to Greece. Resort towns in all corners can be heard loud Russian pop and yet so terrible, how even the taxi drivers necktie in Vilnius pasigėdytų necktie run. Chinese lit streets kabinėsis nonsense vendors persistently offering their goods. Well, while it sharply guys with their wives thick klykiančiomis finally destroy the party. In today's Crimea is happening, what we've seen in Lithuania about 20 years ago, during the first years after independence. After some time, I think things will change for the better, but will not be in a year, two or even ten. So far as it is. Some people understand this and choosing to holiday elsewhere, others do not understand and have paid a lot of money and received a place in the Soviet shack, going back to the homeland of the evil (well, necktie that although healthy) and promise yourself never driving in these places. However, selecting bomžturistinį travel option can have a great time without spending money almost. Personally for me within 3 weeks of the Crimea were able to spend less than living in Lithuania, including travel to and fro. If you are not afraid to spend the night in a sleeping bag in the open air, when it comes to hitch a ride, if you want to meet interesting and strange how many people, if nature and its beauties is more important than your clubs and discos - I can safely necktie say - go to the Crimea, and well, I tell you how to do it technically fast and very cheap.

Preparing for the journey. As my mom says, "Take a trip half as much stuff and twice the money." This saying is very well suited for such type of travel. necktie Although one of the main objectives of the holiday sparingly, carefully pick up some still need to be, because sometimes in life there are a lot of unpleasant occurrences. necktie Things should necktie be a minimal charge to become your luggage lock and maximum distress. Journey to the Crimea is enough if the two sets of clothes. Wash clothes hot sun dries instantly, so dedicating a day for 10 minutes for washing and drying for half an hour you will always necktie have clean clothes and a backpack necktie uncluttered. It's true backpack worth a comfortable and high quality, the same applies to footwear. The trip is enough to pick up two pairs of shoes. necktie These sandals will use every day, and sneakers with a rigid non-slip soles, climbing through the mountains.

If you can - leave it at home, there will be less unnecessary stuff. It is important to keep in mind the sleeping bag - this will be your main home. More importantly, a soft mat.
