Unbroken in Ukraine
Ukraine never fails to surprise me. From the trip of January 2024, I brought back the memories of the sparkling eyes of young adults from Kharkiv, Sumy, Poltava, and Odesa. They explained to me that in 2023, a year into the war, something clicked in them that made them switch from being depressed, lost and frightened to being fiercely active. “We realized that the war isn’t going to end any soon. We’ve got only one life to live, and it’s happening now. We can’t let the war steal our youth.”
I was amazed by the atmosphere in Ukrainian cities being vibrant, lifeful, and unbroken.
