Ukraine in 2011

December 28, 2022 · by · in Ukraine · 1 Comment

Ukraine is never far from my thoughts these days. One can only imagine the fear & hardship that innocent citizens are facing.

Ukrainians are our friends. A proud & hospitable nation that made me feel so welcome in 2011, less than a year before they hosted Euro 2012 with their great Polish neighbours.

Here are a few pictures from my wonderful tour of the now besieged nation. Sláva Ukrayíni!

    I shudder to think how many of these beautiful places have been bombed and lost forever!
