By looking at map it seems like shortest way to hitchhike there is to cross Slovakian-Ukrainian border near Ужгород – Użhorod. Though my hh hitchhiking experiences with Slovakia tells me it maight might be to hard to crose cross whole Slovakia and I would recommend to go through Poland cross border in Medyka and continue till Lviv and than head south. Last 50km maight might be quite hard as well , since you will enter on low less populated area without main roads and big cities but only villages around.

"Exact time when we start isn't known yet but during main HG in Traumschule I will rise the topic of creating some seedcamp seed camp around 25th of August. If some of you don't want to stay till end of August in Traumschule please let me know so we could organise a group for seedcamp seed camp in Ukraine."

"We are staying on the camping in the wild close to nature so we don't have much there is not much but we won't needmuch. Except the stuff most :) Once we get there we will have to organise some big pots to cook for all of us need for camping we are still loking for someone who could bring . If anyone have possibility to get some big bigger tarp in case of rainy days. For sure we don't have any pots to cook for everybodyhide somewhere during rain i will be great. We maight I am not sure how people of this hippie festival manage the toilet but we might also need some tools to dig out the some toilets but hopefully somewhere close our camp what for we need some tools. I guess this one we will be able to manage that can easily get from some local farmers in villages near by."We might also try to organise access to the car during gathering so we could easier deliver supplies. If not we can also try ask for help in villages around but if someone will come here with car please let me know".

"Water from the river is reported to be drinkable. But for those of us with sensitive stomach we can just boil the water. Anyway we are near the river in natural park high in mountains and close to the source of river and far away from any big town causing polutionpollution. I'm pretty sure water will be fine (anyway in a week i should get update of information how is the water) "

"A big frame to put a tarp over with benches around a fire pit. I know that soon few friends of mine will go on this hippie festivale festival which take place there and check out what othere other facilities will be left there after their event."

"As far as known Ukraine isn't a country where food is wasted on scale like in wester Europe. Dumpster divin diving will be most probably impossible. Although prices of food in Ukraine should be low enough thatwe wond that we won't spend much for some communal shopping."
