Home away from home.

24 hours later. We are finally here. The flights were brutal. I knocked out waiting in the 3rd airport. Knocked out on the 3rd flight. Knocked out on the 2 hour bus ride to our destination. Only to knock for a few more hours once we got into our room. 

I've never been more tired in my life. I've never slept sitting down so much. There is a 7 hour time difference here in Ukraine. It's 11:20p here so it's about 4:20p back at home. 

We arrived to the town of Nizhin earlier today around 3:30p. Didn't get a chance to take pictures yet, probably because I was half asleep. The outskirts of the town reminded me of 'The Shire'. Who knows, I might see Bilbo Baggins or Frodo around. 

The food however was great! We are at Mama Luba's house for our first few days. She cooked for us and man does she make sure we eat everything! We ate brĂ³sh. Drank homemade juice. Mama Luba grows everything in her garden. It was delicious.

Until tomorrow. Good night.
