Time flies
Wow, it's been forever since I last posted. Since my last post when I got my invitation to Ukraine, I've quit my job and moved back to Kansas for the few short weeks before I go abroad again. I've been busy trying to pack all over again for a completely different climate. The nice thing about Bangladesh was that I didn't need to take many clothes at all, since I had to buy and wear all local clothing. Now I'm stuck trying to figure out how to take casual and business clothes for summer and winter, and how to make this all fit into two fifty pound bags. Ag! I still have a week to go, but I'm planning to get everything packed this week so it will just be sitting there ready to go. I hate leaving things like that to the last minute. Who wants to pack on their last night in the country?Also, below is a music video by a popular Ukrainian musician (sorry, I don't have his name right now.) I was going to say that this is why I got an Ipod, so that I could listen to my nice "normal" American music ..... but you know what? This is amazingly starting to grow on me. What do you think? Am I crazy? Enjoy! (Jerrie, this one's for you!)

Gee, I've sure missed that song! You have to admit, these people are a lot more fun than the entertainers in the travel video. Can't wait to find out what "Gop, gop, gop" translates to...
His name is Virka Cerduchka. He is a man, who first started as a stand up commedian, and although Ukrainians are not very accepting of alternative lifestyles, he is very popular. Site:
