Right now, the headlines of the news are booming with details of the protests going on in Kiev, Ukraine.  The crazy thing about it is that as I was looking at the intense photographs of the protesters in the capital city, I remembered where they were standing.  You see, a few years ago, I had the privilege to be a part of a team that traveled to Dnepropetrovsk, Ukraine.  Our first stop of the trip though was in Kiev.  It’s a surreal moment when you know exactly where those people are and where they are standing because you have been there too.  I’m so grateful that I have images from that I could spend the morning reminiscing about.  So enjoy a few favorites from my trip.  Note: I didn’t take most of these photographs!

This was in Kiev! We were watching the World Cup there!
