How to organize work while traveling in Crimea?

Greetings colleagues!
The idea has long been brewing to go on a trip to the south of Russia on a motorcycle, but because. I work as a freelancer, I would like not to waste time and at least sometimes get in touch with customers and complete tasks.
Actually the question is, does anyone have experience during such trips? How can you organize the Internet for Skype and work with Git in the conditions of Crimea, Anapa, Sochi? Is it worth digging towards satellite Internet or is it better to use 3G modems of mobile operators? How can I solve the problem of charging a MacBook from a motorcycle cigarette lighter?
It would be great to talk to someone who has already tried to combine travel and remote work.

Somehow the guys so cheerfully undertook to answer, I'll try to write more realistically. I will not speak for Anapa and Sochi, I will speak for the Crimea.
1. In Crimea, mobile Internet is poor. The exception is Sevastopol (not all) and a couple of other large cities. In other places, there may not be mobile Internet at all. So in terms of the Internet, and in general, probably, conveniences - look for hotels with the Internet for a couple of days and work calmly. Thankfully we have many. The "terrestrial" Internet is well developed. And then move on to yourself. Well, or cafes, yes.
2. For some reason, people from continental Russia forget that we are under sanctions and not ridiculous, like a ban on the import of oysters, like you have. Therefore, either bring cash with you, or immediately get a local card to which you can transfer money. You will not be able to withdraw Sberbank money from our ATMs. If it's fast, you can transfer it through the poison, for example, to the Pervomaisky map. Conveniently. But interest. Elance and other exchanges, stocks, go exclusively through vpn - they follow and ban until you prove that you are not in the Crimea.

3g modems behind the eyes. Moreover, now there is no roaming within one country .

As for Sochi - Anapa: you can take Yot's SIM card.
It works almost everywhere (there are places where the coverage is not enough, but there are not many of them).
The other day I was traveling from Sochi to Anapa by bus (yes, darkness!) - the Internet was, in fact, everywhere.
Speed ​​- if you download from the phone - 300 kb and higher, if you distribute the Internet to devices, then 128 Kb (for this you need to change TTL from 64 -> 65, otherwise it will be 64 kb).
The specified maximum speed is due to the fact that I only have 3G on my phone, if you have 4G, then the speed may be higher. But that was enough for me to get the job done.
For money - 230 rubles. and you have unlimited internet for a month (actually, not only in the South).
PSYou can also take a modem, if you only need an Internet on a laptop, there already from 2500 rubles. prices start. But a SIM card, as I see it, is more profitable - you can go online from your phone and distribute it to other devices.
