| Kherson, a town near the Dniepr |
Kherson Ukraine is the city of two ports, the River and the Sea one, that's why the Kherson trade port is connected with 42 countries of the world.
Kherson Ukraine stretches along the high right bank of the river Dnipro, this is the area where the Dnipro runs into many branches and forms many islands. Kherson Ukraine is situated on the plain territory called the Steppe.
The city's large railway junction connects Kherson Ukraine with Moscow, Dnepropetrovsk, Kharkov, Simferopol and other cities of the country and CIS.

| Antonina Shakina, Scammer from Kherson |
For me, Kherson rhymes with sadness and bitterness, since in this city I was victim of a woman swindler who made me a beautiful con. If you cross Antonina Teopriesna Shakina, living in Kherson, ul.Lenina 94 apt. 7 : mistrust, only bus your money interests it. If you believe it, as me, you could have a bad judgment thereafter on Ukraine and its inhabitants. Fortunately, I confirm you that, the majority of the Ukrainian is very welcoming and honest. And it is a pity that the police and the Ukrainian justice doesn't pursue these swindlers who harm to the reputation of this country. Site Meter |

izifaddag Sat Dec 17, 2005 22:09 UTC Nice info Claude. I have made 2 trips to Kherson. I also thought I had a Kherson lady. She is not a scammer just a pain in the butt. Sure did like spending money. Be very careful folks with Kherson ladies. | dsldjhskjd Sun Oct 2, 2005 00:27 UTC I am Edward Hordienko --direct descendent of Kost Hordienko....I have been all over Ukraine, but have yet to see the grave of my famous relative.
