For Halloween approximately 50-60 volunteers stayed in Kharkiv to have a little get together and see one another. Got to meet some interesting people and catch up with people I haven't seen in a good while. Had a great time and it was well worth the trip. However, not everything I went there with came back with me.
Hailey and I were on the train in Kharkiv heading to my town in Crimea when we encountered a seemingly nice Ukrainian lady. I help her get her bedding set up and say hello while we are getting settled in our places. I got ready for bed and folded up my jeans and shirt under the table beside me on the lower bunk with Hailey's make up bag being on top of that. Our coupe buddy gets off the train at 3:30 AM and I wake up to her rustling around thinking nothing about it. Hailey and I wake up at 4:45 to get off the train and I realize that my jeans are nowhere to be found and neither is Hailey's bag. Turns out this lady took my jeans and Hailey's bag forgoing the expensive camera in my satchel bag or my wallet and passport in my jacket. This of course was incredibly frustrating but life will go on and I now have an arch-nemesis in this world in the form of a middle-aged Ukrainian woman. The one thing I don't get is why would you steal a pair of jeans? There are so many different waist and length sizes that it would be difficult to fit just anyone where as my coat was one of three possible sizes.
Anyway! Pictures!
This is my current apartment on Lenin St.
This is the main street by me where all my shops are.
Path from my house to the bazaar.
That's all for now but I will update soon.
