When planning a trip to Ukraine you are going to want to make sure that you pack the proper items. You cannot always account for every eventuality, but if you follow some of the basic ideas we present here, you will be able to make your stay in Ukraine enjoyable. The most basic things you will want to make sure that you have is a change of clothing, shoes or boots, a passport, money, and other necessities, all in a carry-on bag. This ensures you always have the proper documentation and some clothing in case your luggage is lost.
If you are planning on bringing a laptop computer to Ukraine, you will need to bring a power converter with you. In Ukraine, the electrical current is 220v/60Hz while in the United States if runs 110v/50Hz. Make sure that you computer can run on both voltages and the adapter plug you purchase will fit into European sockets. Also, make sure you bring a surge protector, and other computer supplies that you may need with you. You may not find what you need when you are in Ukraine, and if you do find it there, expect to pay a higher price for it.
When you pack your clothing, make sure that it is comfortable, versatile, and easy to take care of. Mix and match is the best if you are on vacation and bring business attire with you in the event that you will be having a business meeting. Bring the toiletries that you can use in public restrooms and pack a bath towel as the ones in the hotels are usually small. Also, don’t forget to bring a small gift for your Ukrainian hosts and their children as this shows proper etiquette.
