Of course you've got to try all the best food while visiting (or volunteering) in Kiev, Ukraine? So, where should you go?

Are you planning to visit the beautiful country of Lithuania soon? While being fluent in Lithuanian may not be necessary, knowing some basic phrases is definitely a good idea!  

Feel like you took a trip to Austria without ever leaving Ukraine (and come home with stories about a charming city no one really talks about).

Not only does this country have a dozen darling little cities for you to visit, Romania is home to a handful of quirky, creative, and unmissable holidays and festivals you can be a part of.
