Ukrainian adventures

I’m in the middle of seven glorious weeks in a row with no business trips! Home sweet home!

After a week in Simferopol, in the southern peninsula of Crimea, I went straight to Lviv, in western Ukraine – from one of the most Russian parts of the country to the so-called “capital” of Ukrainian nationalism. I almost got whiplash going from one extreme to the other!

Igor joined me for the weekend trip to Lviv, for a nice mix of business and pleasure.

Last weekend we went to Korosten for the Easter preparations – aka, the pig killing. 90 minutes from barn to plate. Eilene and Bill took lots of interesting pictures throughout the process.

Next weekend we’ll celebrate Easter with Igor’s family, and most of the rest of the pig will be consumed with gusto.
