Hi,

I'm thinking of coming to Czernowitz by train, get some view of the country. I'm coming from Israel.
Does anybody has information of what is the preferred flight destination in terms of good connection between the airport to the train station and nice journey. I speak Hebrew and English Only is that can be a problem getting to the train station?
I tough on the following destinations Kiev Or Odessa

10x,
Peretz

  The north side of the Ringplatz. Now missing - bombed out.
  In the old times bustling with all kind of people.
   Mostly jewish it seems .
    What exactly do they do ?
   They " Dreien sich arim."
    In Yiddish" dreien" means to turn.
     Dreien sich - is the reflexive form : turn themselves.
     "Arim "means about .
    So the closest we get is: They turn themselves about.
     How did you make a living from this ?
      In Czernowitz you did.
        Today the place is dominated by the Shevchenko statue.
        Lots of tourists, lots of beggars , lots of dollars .
         What do they do ?
          " Dreien sich arim".
