The Arrival
Two Swedes and a Norwegian arriving in Kyiv, Ukraine after two fairly swift and pleasant flights from Copenhagen/Stockholm via Prague. After a lifetime in the immigration queue we found out that one bag and a pair of ski sticks were missing. Since the bags contained items crucial for our project and survival, we received some treats in the form of 130 US dollars from the airline company. Since the ski sticks were bought at a flea market in Örnsköldsvik for 1 euro 50 cents, we thought that to be quite a good deal. Johannes, on the other hand, were still quite worried since it was his bag which was missing, containing besides a multitude of technical equipment also a painstakingly hand picked collection of designer clothes. After these first minor accidents, we got out of the airport and into the 40 celsius welcoming warmth of Ukraine.
