Creator's Key Takeaways

I booked a basic economy ticket, so I was not expecting much.

Flight to Frankurt was long but surprisingly decent. They served two meals.

Border crossing was pretty quick. I guess I was really lucky.

It was pretty easy, right? I check in in my hotel in Ukraine and next stop it's going to be Odessa.
