Hi everyone! I'm planning a trip for next week and I'm going from L'viv to Krakow, I've been looking for information and I've seen that there's a night train just working on par days, I will be there on 17 so I think I won't be able to get that train. I've also seen that there's a bus working daily at 22:00 from Lviv to Krakow arriving around 6am but i don't know if it is working now because that information was old. Anybody can tell me something about it? I would like to go to Krakow by night so I can stay there for the day. Also, I've seen that Bus Main Station is far from the Lviv center, anybody knows how to get there? Thank you!!

I'm looking for a guide/translator to help me in September. I'm not looking for the typical high priced English speaking guide to take me around town and show me mounuments/castles/etc. I'm looking for someone to help with a photography project - an outgoing person that understands enough English to communicate with me, knows their way around the countryside/small villages up to 100km out of town, able to strike up conversations with locals, knows their way around Soviet housing complexes, has street smarts. This might be fun for a student studying English or photojournalism or a recent grad. Any leads appreciated! Thanks.

Time to prepare my shopping list for Lviv! I have adopted the habit to bring some music CDs from my travels - some folk music but mainly contemporary rock/pop/jazz music sung in the local language. However, shopping for music means you have to know which names of bands and singers to look for. I usually prepare with the help of Youtube and make a list of those whose music I like, but that also requires knowing some names to start with. So - I hope for some recommendations of good bands and singers from Ukraine. Please let me know your favourites. My musical taste: rock ballads, 'soft' jazz, melodic pop. No techno, no hip-hop, no heavy metal. I prefer singers, no matter if male or female, who have strong voices and a good singing technique - I dislike girly whispers and half-spoken 'singing'. Question 2: Where can I find a well-assorted CD shop in Lviv?

He came over to America during WW2 after his parents were killed. His family had land in Dowholuka is that far from Lviv it looks like it’s only about an hour’s drive away. Also is it really hard to find someone who speaks English in these areas? Also is there an airport in Lviv? Or where is the closest airport?
