I plan on going to Ukraine around Nov 4th to Nov 17th. The girl that I am going to see is going to meet me in Kiev where we will stay for at least two days. She suggested going to Hurghada in Egypt to hang out for 5-7-9 days then back to Kiev. The reason she suggested going to Hurghada is that it should be much much warmer there then in Kiev. And she says you can get good deals to go to Hurghada flying from Kiev. Have any of you guys been to Hurghada?
And lastly I am not sure that I am going to be able to pull all of this together in such a short period of time.
Have to fit getting the visa and making reservations etc.
Yes, the trip to Hurgada is wonderful idea.
Yes, in Egypt is much warmer then in Kiev.
And still, YOU take the trip to Ukraine dreaming to see and to know better the lady. SHE wants the trip to Egypt - for own pleasure at least.

P.S.I will write you to private address my ideas...
Hurgada and Sharmlesheik are very popular FSU holiday destinations. Egypt does not require a Visa for the FSU people nor you for that matter. I have several friends (FSU) that have gone there. It is very cheap holiday by American or Euro standards. The only problem I see is if you are American. Egypt is a muslim country and they do not like Americans there. This I was told by one of my friends. Should this stop you from going. I can't say. Just be aware of it. Good luck. Other places you can meet without Visa is Cyprus and Turkey. Both I would assume are more American friendly.
ice chaos,
just about every girl i know or dated in kyiv goes to egypt or turkey for vacation. it is a good cheap vacation for american money and also their money. you might also get to choose in advance the type and style of serving platter your head might be displayed on.

if you need a visa to get to ukraine in a matter of a week or two at the most. call this number promptly.they are in washington d.c. they are fast and very reputable. 1-800 567-4175 former administrator olga turned me on to them. little pricy but it will be at your door in no time at all.
Thanks for the advice jmoluv. I will check out the number that you listed. I will probably not be able to make the trip so soon. I will not be able to take off on the dates that I posted. I will have to leave a week sooner and am not sure that I can get everything ready in time.
Yes I am an American but unlike most of my fellow zombies living here, I do know what is going on in the world. I am not the big, fat, ugly, loudmouthed American that Holywood likes protraying to the world. If I do go to Egypt I will keep a very low profile. By the way I have never supported the fool that we have in the White House.
