More about our Love for Czernowitz, actually about the general
love for Czernowitz:
For the last few years, I have visited Czernowitz every year.
I usually stay for a few days and have time to walk around the city.
On these walks, or in the hotel, I meet other tourists and have a chance
to talk to them. Most of them are not "returning Czernowitzers",
nor are they necessarily Jewish. I have met French, German, Austrian
and Polish tourists. They all rave about Czernowitz.
Among the work-camps held by both SVIT Ukraine and ASF Germany,
the work-camps held in Czernowitz are the most popular.
