I visited Kiev for the first time a week after the horrible events at Maidan Nezelezhnosti or the Independence Square, the central square of the city which was the centre for Euromaidan. Kiev is a beautiful city and at most places it was hard to imagine the horrors where more than 100 men and women lost their lives. The hardships for the country continues but i hope that the sun will soon rise to a brighter future for the proud people of Ukraine.



The week after the shootings the city was still a war zone...


...and the barricades were still there...
...but is was cleaning up time
Signs of the horror were still present...

...and people were mourning the lost ones
But people tried to stay happy and give support to each other...
...and hopefully the sun will soon rise on a strong and calm Kiev again!
