Keep in mind that most cities build during the Soviet Era are cookie cutter designs.

Looks like you had a good time, reminds me of outskirts of Moscow and the black sea a bit. Also, brownie points for coming through with some pictures of cars, those things are great. No power, no ABS, no safety, RWD and weigh a ton - great for the winters :lol

Yup.

Yup. The cars are CRAP. I was scared to death. I drove in a taxi for the first time while in Ukraine (never been in a US taxi) and it was the biggest piece of crap ever. I closed the door and it didn’t have any of that soft thud our doors have, there is metal to metal. It felt like I slammed the door as hard as I could. EVERYTHING rattles when they drive, including my teeth. lol.

They are my cousins.

His in-laws moved here and left the house to him and their daughter. Although she’s here in Cohoes getting ready to give birth. I’m in the process of talking to the Kiev Consulate about his Visa because they’ve denied him without doin an interview 3 times. I’m working with the office of Paul Tonko as well. It’s f’in BS.

Waiting for them (the girls took them on their cameras). I can post pics of girls that my friend had on his thumb drive (I was copying his music to my laptop while we were driving and stole them hah), but I didn’t actually meet those girls in particular but they are very much Ukrainian.
