: : I always wanted to travel to Western Ukraine (including L'viv, of course). But, to tell truth, I really fear come to these places.
: : You know why? - My native language is Russian.
: : Am I right?

Unfortunately the russification of Lviv has taken horrible steps.A few years ago,there wasn't such a problem as"russian music",because nobody was ineterested in it.But during last few years things changed,our youngsters began to speak russian and i was really shocked when last year i heard not only russian language but also russian music in the centre of a city.Some citizens don't care,some oppose.

But nevertheless this doesn't mean you will feel uncomfortable.Just try to speak more english anyway.
