I ate breakfast with some fellow Fulbrighters and before our meeting at 3, visited the National Gallery of Western and Oriental Art. It is a small museum but they had some nice pieces. The museum is also a former home to a couple who developed much of the collection. I love historic home museums, such as the Frick in NYC. This place was somewhat similar. The home was built in the late 1880s to display the collection.
Taras Schevchenko Park was full of activity!
At 3, we met at Myron’s place to have lunch and discuss our experiences as Fulbrighters. We had a nice discussion and it was enlightening and riveting to hear what others had experienced…good and bad.
Natalia has been SO helpful:
Kyiv train station:
I didn’t get to go to the ballet or the philharmonic with some of the others bc I had to catch the 8:21 PM train to Simferopol.
Now I am on the way to the Crimea!
