My trip to Kiev, Ukraine
 

Just thought I'd share this one with you all, I know there are a lot of people here who appreciate the sort of things you can find in Kiev. That is to say, Orthodox Churches, huge Soviet monuments and a lot of funky colours. Kiev is a beautiful city, hugely underrated, despite it's problems, I still felt safer here than I ever have in London. I can't work out whether it has made a definitive change yet - it can go from a modern, dynamic city, to one stuck in the early 90's, and even further back to the Soviet days. It largely depends where you find yourself, but it's an interesting city of change.
