I visit Uzhgorod on a yearly base for now hopefully twice a year in the near future.
I can give info from the locals and experiences i had and will have, its a pity people cant always afford the internet... so i ll do my best and try to give update info through friends who are lucky to be able to have a pc and internetaccess.
For me this city is important because here lives some of my family and here are friends living as well my contacts for my hum.aid org.

Last visit to Uzhgorod was by train February 2002 and...i brought my aunt with me to Holland:-))

At november 14th.2001 i received a thank u letter with pictures from the orhans of the School our org.KIDO is working for.
