October 2004 took me across the Atlantic into the Eastern Europe block of the Ukraine. After a grueling 24 hour flight, with stops in Minnesota and Amsterdam, I found myself in the capital city of Kiev. It was there that I was greeted by my host family and the blinders from my ignorant American brainwashed eyes were removed. The flat shown in this photo is located about 10 hours south of Kiev in an urban city named Krivoy Rog. The relative size of the bathroom and the government controlled heating system were two reminders that I was a world away from the comforts of Southern California.
