    Love this video! Want to say, tho - it's Kyiv, not Kiev. Kiev is how its pronounced in Russian, we don't want for English community to call Ukrainian city like that.

    Hey got some life constraint but would love to visit this beautiful country soon. Don't feel bad for spreading positive energy. My heart bleeds looking at the war footage. Such beautiful country and people, and they definitely deserve better. Love Ukraine, hope they get their peace back soon.

    Kiew is a very beautiful, atmospheric city.
    I was staying in the Ukraine hotel right next to the Maidan last summer and visited Khreschatik street which had special vibes I still feel.

    Great insight into life in Kyiv! I am looking at going myself in December this year, depending on the situation at the time.
    But in my opinion it looks like Kyiv will remain relatively safe for the foreseeable future.

    Ukraine today reminds me of the late 60s early 70s in the West. The same vibe. Optimistic in the face or war, youth oriented, even the songs of those times performed by buskers. Due to the Cold war, Ukrainians did not experience the counter-culture of the 60s. So it all make sense. (My observations are arrived after watching a number videos not just this one)

    Beautiful city. I also recommend the nightlife. A must see is the annual torchlight parades, where citizens march through the streets, arms outstretched, honouring fallen Nazi collaborators. Afterwards witness spectacular bonfires, where Russian books are used as fuel to entertain the frenzied crowds. A visit to Kiev is highly recommended for those of us with a peculiar view of history.
