Pretty soon I'm going to need a break, so where to go? Europe doesn't want me anywhere near it, thinking I'm either there to blow stuff up or to use their genour social security system. America does not like towelheads nowadays, so I'm basically stuck on this godforsaken island, where the only place I can go to is another even smaller island (homes sweet home). Hence, there is obviously one destination: the Ukraine.

In case you haven't heard, this is the new hotspot for tourists. Highlights include:

- A day trip to Chernobyl , the site of the nuclear disaster that was 100 times as strong as Hiroshima. Activities include a tour of ghost towns that have been deserted.


-For drink lovers, there is cheap and plentiful vodka, which apparently costs 40p a liter for the really good stuff. If you're really hardcore, you go for the homemade stuff served with jugs out of big tubs.

- There is the beautifully constructed and innovitavely named Tourist Hotel. This 3-star artchitectural gem has 1800 rooms in 27 stories, so no worry of being fully booked here.

-The birthplace of chicken Kiev.

To be honest I don't know much about the Ukraine, as I'm just going there on a whim. Has anyone visited the place? Does anyone know anything about it? If you do, any information would be appreciated!
