A Childhood Friend Invited Me To Spend A Weekend In Ukraine, Here Are My 72 Hours In Kiev

一个儿时的朋友邀请我去乌克兰度周末，这是我在基辅度过的72个小时

One of my "childhood" friends was from Ukraine. She came as an exchange student for a year and 20-some-odd years later here we are, still friends visiting each other when we can. In 2017 I moved from California to Denmark which made visiting me from Ukraine pretty easy. After a couple of visits, I got the "come to Kiev" offer from my friend. So I packed up for a quick weekend in the city that blew my mind.

我的一个“童年”朋友来自乌克兰。她做了一年的交换生，20多年后的今天，我们仍然是朋友，只要有可能，我们会互相拜访。2017年，我从加州搬到了丹麦，这让他从乌克兰来看我变得非常容易。经过几次访问，我的朋友向我提出“来基辅”。所以我在这个令我震惊的城市里收拾行装，过了一个短暂的周末。

An amazing, whirlwind experience; Kiev is a vibrant city filled with golden light and intensely beautiful architecture. Ukraine's history, especially recently, is tragic and difficult to learn and hear about... but I promise you, coming to Ukraine will give you a perspective on the world you never thought possible. My 72 hours in Kiev is the time I will cherish forever and I'm excited to return, hopefully, soon.

一个惊人的，旋风般的经历;基辅是一个充满活力的城市，充满了金色的光芒和极其美丽的建筑。乌克兰的历史，尤其是最近的历史，是悲惨的，很难了解和听说……但我向你们保证，来到乌克兰将给你们一个从未想过可能的视角。我在基辅的72小时是我将永远珍惜的时光，我很兴奋，希望很快就能回来。
