Off to Poland, Ukraine and Belarus in 4 days for a 2 month roadtrip!

Anyone has contacts to any girls interested in filming/ partying, please let me know.

I have contacts in UKR and Belarus and so explored this.

Ukraine - I was advised that anything stronger than art nude is technically illegal, putting you at risk of a shakedown. By the police, or criminals, or both.

Loads of porn is filmed there, but tends to be by locals who have greased the approriate palms.

Belarus - it's a "communist" dictatorship police state that no one visits. So if you do, EVERYONE will know about it. Police will either shake you down, or possibly even - if you meet a more ambitious one - actually throw the book at you and NOT take a bribe.

You can have a very good time in both countries, but I'd be very careful about shooting anything adult, and in fact I think I'd clean my data of such material too before going through them.

Enjoy.

PS - dress warm :-)

Ukraine is brilliant. I did shoot out there but was bloody careful. Most of the models come from Odessa down South. I took a translator/guide with me and security as it can be dodgy. Had a great time in Kiev. There is a great multistory boat in Kiev's river that is just like the boat out of Porky's. Gambling on one floor, bar on another and loads more.....

Excellent place but expensive to get to. Once out there a bottle of Vodka was ?4 and ciggies were 46 pence a pack.

I'm going to go back there for a holiday...soon!!

Also Ukraine has the highest HIV problem in europe (mainly Odessa). Google it!

It certainly does. Good thing for tests and condoms isn't it.

Out there I wouldn't be sure that the bit of paper I was looking at represented any kind of useful information.

Indeed. That is why condoms would be a must as well.

Condoms are an essential as they have staggeringly high levels of Hep B in the Ukraine which is far easier to catch than HIV.

Totally agree. Getting your Hep B injections is also vital.
