We would like to come to D.C., but Kris and I have a seven month old that makes travel a bit more exciting. We just took our first plane trip out to Monterey, CA to visit another couple with whom we trained in Pryluky, UA. So, that fills our travel card for this year.

I have a Ukrainian colleague who is in Minnesota right now. While we were in Ukraine all he could dream about was coming to the States. We tried to give him a realistic perspective about life here, but he just knew he would have more opportunities here--maybe he does. Anyway, is there an RPCV from UA that lives anywhere near the Twin Cities? Sasha could use a friend who could relate to what he is going through.

Thanks,

jennifer

Ginn: sorry it took a while to respond, ya, I'll help you out w/ something for the Trident.
Suzanne: The videos are from our trip last year. This year we hope to go in October for Chernivtsi's 600 yr. anniversary. We'll see if we can make it, "posmotrium," right?
Thanks for the comments of Joseph, he's an insanely cute version of me.

Ross,
First, Joseph is totally adorable! Second, I love the cow seen. He must have your sense of adventure because he didn't seem too intimidated by the huge cow!

If you read this before you leave, I'd appreciate a little "tour" of any places you are visiting. Just interesting how much things had changed on Kreschatik!

Take care, enjoy the trip and safe travels back to Canada!

Hellllo Ross! Just ead you dynamic profile! Wow! Ha! Soooo tell us all a bit about yourself please!

I am spending this day "of" catching up on FoU stuff. ONe of the projects is the Trident - here is a chance for YOU to draft an article or editorial. You could tell about how your experience in Ukraine changed you or plans for a third goal project you may have...or an editorial on how this organization can be more thanjust a social network, but instead a force for good...Or maybe a humorous incident. I could really use some input!

Of course, I could just make up stuff...

Hey...look forward to hearing from you andmaybe actually getting acquainted!

I'm not sure how long she worked for Peace Corps but she was there for us, group 14 and will be missed.

If anybody knows any more details or how her family is doing, please let us know.

Thanks.
