A Kyiv summer


Summertime in Kyiv in a single photo! :) Isn't it perfect?

PS: Not my photo. It was taken by a friend of a friend- thank you for letting me share it here!

PPS: If you haven't already seen this on Facebook, here's an interesting summer read: How 250 tons of Ukrainian watermelons took over the internet this summer.

Crimean road trip, part I


Imagine:
Early spring near the sea.
You.
A motorcycle.
An open road before you.


A former student lives in Simferopol and owns a motorcycle, which means awesome road trips all around the Crimean peninsula. I asked him if I could share some of his pictures here, since Crimea is beautiful and he's covered a lot of ground on his bike this year. (Thanks for agreeing, Sergey!)


He took these pictures in April-May 2017. You'll notice trees still dull from winter and the deserted beaches of early spring. I left the pictures in the order he took them on his travels. He sent so many pictures that I'll share the other half with you in a later post.
