Your first impression of Ukraine?
I spent the first days in Ukraine in its capital – Kyiv. It is a very nice city and the first impression that Ukraine gave me was very good. Everything was nice and well organized.Even though I did see some very old cars and trucks, Kyiv looked like a rich city. After that I went to Zaporizhzhya and something spoiled my first good impression – the pollution. The smell in the air was so terrible and I’m worried about the health of the people who live there.
