Ukraine vs. Saskatoon

What I love about Ukraine:

-Pazata Hata
-beautiful architecture
-everything is cheap
-meeting new random people everyday
-AIESEC Kyiv
-people not speaking english
-easy public transport
-beer sold on almost every corner and in supermarkets
-McDonalds and McFoxy
-words that sound the same in Russian as in English but take me minutes to figure out ("Soooo.....perrr.....marrr.....kat......oh it's a supermarket")

What I don't like about Ukraine:

-bathrooms
-the bread is dry
-milk and milk products are not very good
-public transport ends at 11:30
-the humidity
-sometimes things just don't work
-that I have to leave

What I miss about Saskatoon:

-family/friends
-pizza (good pizza)
-poutine
-talking to people in english
-getting places quickly

What I don't miss about Saskatoon:

-unhealthy food is so easy to get
-easy to get anywhere, don't have to walk
-commercialism
-pop culture everywhere
-people complaining about life
-bitching about news/politics
-everybody is busy, have to get places on time, have to be doing something all the time

Hey, Hon;
I bet the News is 'un-americanized' and therefore more accurate, too?

You should learn to make an authentic Kiev dish and bring us back the recipe. Bet its not Chicken Kiev. haaa

Stay safe...xoxox Mom
