Stay safe
Ukranian cities are not as dangerous as they may seem, though a bit more precaution is required. Common trics include playing false police. In doubt ask an officer or tell him you're not following him. The first thing they try is to get you out of the tourists places. Openly robbing you or pickpocketting happens less as the risks are bigger. If you do not speak ukranian, polish nor russian try to stick to tourist places. It's less interesting but a lot safer!
