Ukraine Trip One

Ukraine is a country of diverse charms whose fanciful churches, imposing fortresses and landscape dotted with fields of sunflowers delight off-the-beaten-track travellers.

Trip three to the Ukraine was an out of the ordinary journey, primarily for one reason: The Maidan. To visit this, in the meantime, world famous city square during the major protest movement known as the Euromaidan was the reason why I returned to this nation at this time, impromptu and in the dead of winter. Wanting to make the best out of this tour, I also visited my friends on the Crimea. Thus I went on another road trip, this time from Kiev directly to Simferopol. The mid-winter season would make this journey a somewhat adventurous undertaking, being in a country already fraught with bad roads. Another very memorable place visited was a former secret submarine base by the small Crimean town of Balaklava.

This is a travel biography about a journey to Ukraine in May and June 2015. Highlight of the tour was a road trip to Mariupol and being taken to the embattled town of Shyrokyne by members of the Azov Regiment. Cities visited: Kyiv, Boryspil, Kremenchuk, Dneprodzerzhinsk, Dnepropetrovsk, Zaporizhia, Mariupol, Shyrokyne and other towns and villages.
