I knew going to the "safe" part of war struck country would be hard. Especially if it's a country I love so dearly.

In the end being in Ukraine was not much of vacation. I had my good moments, especially on my volunteering projects, but it was emotionaly draining. Being the activist I am, I done lots of random talk to people, passing out words of support, bought lot of souvernirs out of charity (literally, there are charity sales in support of the batalions and what not), talked to volunteers and soldiers and normal people. Felt well loved. Enjoyed the towns and cities and yes, the exchange rate.

Now back. Not having slept well for a while and having spent last night on a bus, I feel melancholic as hell.

Hard to sort the thoughts. And worried about the future, even more than before. Thinking of the people I met, hoping they are okay... I know overall I did good thing I went, gave hope to lot of people.... but now I am drained and too much on my mind.

Just need to rest, I guess and maybe think. Or maybe I need not to think.
