An interesting encounter this morning- I met a guy who had just managed to leave Ukraine, and is flying to Belfast tomorrow to meet his wife and kids. He showed me a video of his flat in Mariupol getting bombed way back in 2015, and he had several scars from shrapnel. He was such a nice bloke, a big laid back restaurantier, hard to imagine someone trying to bomb him. Anyway we had a brandy before I set off.

Headed through Prestov which was pretty nice but kind of a poor man's Kosice, then up through densely wooded hills. Skies are grey, and it feels much more temperate than it did a few days. Last stop the town of Bardejov which has a large and very medieval town square. There's a medieval cathedral but I didn't fancy a cathedral today. However, I did watch a street art duel which is something different.
