War....that is all we hear from Ukraine these days. And without a doubt, war is ever present on the mind of every Ukranian, as drones strike their cities almost everyday.

But Ukranians also continue, amazingly, to live their lives. There is an amazing country that's been forgotten after the years of their war of defense. No one tells you about the varied landscapes the country offers; mountains, plains and even beaches in the south. Magnificent cities with thousands of years of history. And a population with a resilience and sense of humor like no other.

In spite of the risks I read in the media, I decided to travel Ukraine, from one end to another. This is my journey, from the capital Kyiv in the north, to the port city Odesa in the south. And what a journey it was..
