March 31.
Kyiv.
Landscape Alley is still waiting for spring.
I show you the beauty of Ukraine — a country hidden behind the bars of war.
Yaroslava
If you want to find out the artist of a particular painting, just give me the timecode or a photo. I’ll tell you.
This round stove is made of authentic tiles from the late 19th-early 20th century.
The tiles were manufactured at a factory in Kyiv.
Gorgeous.
Kyiv.
So many alerts today.
I’m editing photos from the exhibition.
This facial expression perfectly suits me now.

Greetings from Kyiv.
Let’s cross the Dnipro River on the metro with me.
I filmed just a bit of the ride.
Thick grey clouds merge with the water.
Greetings from Kyiv.
After writing and having warcoffee,
I’m here to say hi.
May something good happen to you today.
Greetings from Kyiv.
Monday is full of alerts here.
It’s calm for now.
Warcoffee on the table.
Lazy rain outside.
Spring is playing hide and seek.

Easter in Ukraine falls on April 12.
Yours — perhaps on April 5.
My new Sunday Letter explains why.
And how the date is calculated.

The Carpathian Mountains
through the eyes and brushes of Ukrainian artists.
I invite you to the exhibition I visited yesterday.
Nature, people, and stillness.
Motronyn Monastery, deep in the woods of Kholodnyi Yar 🇺🇦 (you may know this place from my Hidden Ukraine letter)
It was rebuilt many times since at least the 11th century.
First, a men’s monastery.
Closed by the Soviets.
Now, a women’s monastery.
