    I love how for foreigners it s easier to learn my country's geography than to transliterate its name

    Good job on recognizing Харків. Unfortunately, you've scrolled several times over the exact street that you were looking for - "Гагаріна" - it's that big yellow one, going from the city center to the south. On the map it was spelled as "Haharina", though. I guess, the actual sign on the street was a transliteration, according to russian phonetic, while the name on the map is more phonetically accurate to Ukrainian pronunciation.

    Andriivka must be the Springfield of Ukraine.
    Х gets transliterated as Kh, presumably because of its Greek chi origin, but the k isn't explicitly pronounced in Russian and Ukrainian. It's more like the English H you're used to, or ch in a proper Scottish pronunciation of loch, depending on context. Sort of like your first attempt at Рокитне at 17:26 (next time think rho for Р). It doesn't make the sh sound, because that's always Ш, and it doesn't make the z sound, because they have З for that. I've never heard an English only speaker say the name, but I'd expect them to pronounce the transliteration phonetically. Funny that now I know how to pronounce the name in language I don't speak, but not my native language.

    R1 Flat, lush but with low trees and overcast landscape means that u are in the Dnipro Valley. It is one of the few non sunny areas outside cities.
    R2 You dont see so much greenery and thick forests south. In the south there is a steppe in which wheat is grown so the ground is yellow and u dont see as much tree density. Also roads are usually crappier. It feels more like Romania. The east has no coverage except Donetsk.
    R3 You went the wrong way, going ur way it was impossible.
    R4 Congrats!
    R5 That signs is that confusing that it's basically useless. All I can tell is that houses looked like what u see in Poland and Lithuania (prob Belarus too but it's not on SV). Also the highest forest density is along the border with Belarus

      Awesome info! I know very little about Eastern Europe in general (as this video proved lol) so this is really useful.

    Can't say aobut all Ukraine but in my region villages aren't generally built along the road so i knew it would be diffucult.
    blurred thing on 10:20 i believe it's a tomb. I don't know why this is the thing in Ukraine but sometimes if people die in car accident, people place tomb right next to this place. I live in the city (not village) and once romani guy died in car accident. Those romani family members placed tomb in the exact place where he died, so it was in a middle of the road for some time (until somebody moved it to the side)
