"People here definitely like to drink alcohol. You can sit on a bench in a park and having a few shots or a bottle of beer to yourself and also offer it to a passer by using your own judgement and then simply hang with them. Of course you got to be careful. Also the majority of the country does not speak English, maybe young generation, but primitive though," said a member in Kiev, Ukraine.
