snapshots of ukrainian nature and village life. more photos on my flickr
thanks for all your comments folks! i’m happy to know you find the photos of interest. : )











late saturday we came home from our two week bicycle trip from kiev to warsaw. it was a both hard, exciting and eye opening experience to travel by bike through parts of ukraine and later poland.
we took a train out of kiev as the heat there was extreme (the photo of NE in our kiev hostel room says it all).
ukraine was a challenging country to travel in by bike as there were few food stores, no one who spoke english, only signs in cyrillic and poor roads. this being said ukraine was also full of beautiful nature and we met some very sweet and friendly people there: a couple who led us stay for the night in their house and a woman who served us the best home cooked meal when we needed it the most.
more photos to come tomorrow!

part of my current knitting project - a baby sweater. hmm i seem to prefer small scale knitting

the postman brought me an interesting package some days ago. it was from irene of såg ungefär ut så här. she send me some beautiful, beautiful prints - thanks irene! so very sweet of you, it really made my day. : )
these pictures are from this weekend. its hotter than i can ever remember and very humid. phew…we’ve been staying inside mostly planning the wedding (its our wedding invitations in the last photo) but also our vacation. i’ll tell you more about it soon!
hope you are having a great weekend
