Summer is in full swing here and my schedule is already booked until mid-September. Can you believe that? Goodbye summer :(
However, I'm quite excited about everything I will be doing. This is what the schedule looks like so far: July 4th - July 19th I will be in Crimea, hiking/camping in the mountains and by the sea with my organization (same trip as last year). July 25th - 29th I will be attending a Peace Corps Russian language camp right outside of Kiev with a bunch of my American friends. July 30th - August 4th I will be at a Soccer camp with our women's team. August 10th - 16th is the English camp I am directing "Camp Republic". After this camp, the American volunteers and I will probably go back to Crimea for about 5 days to relax on the beach after such a busy summer :)
Finally, my Mom and Aunt come to Ukraine on the 28th of August!!!!! I'm so excited for them to come here and see my city, home and place of work. After about 3 days here we will go to Turkey and Greece for 10 days total. Then, as if this all couldn't get any better, my best friend from home will meet us in Greece and then come back to Ukraine for a week!
Life is good and busy, but I have to admit time is seriously going too fast for me to handle.... :) Can you believe I'm finished in 11 months? wow.
Here are some photos from the past couple of weeks:
1. Mega-Picnic - Kickoff of the summer event we do for children and teenagers in the forest; includes team building activities, fun games, and a BBQ.
2. My best friend here, Katya, got married! I was a bridesmaid and after the official ceremony we did a photo shoot in many different locations including the corn field. It was so beautiful and fun!
3. As some of you may know, I was in France for a week with a dear friend from the states. We spent about 3 days total in Paris, then drove through the wine country visiting Dijon, and ended up on the Mediterranean Sea for 2 days in Nice. Very beautiful country, I recommend!
