Ukraine or Greenford?




I'm back at site for a few days after Survivor Camp which was a great success. Upon entering my village yesterday by minibus I was welcomed by sunflower fields. Sunflowers remind me of home, of my grandparents' place in Greenford. This evening I went out to the fields to reflect on my family and how grateful I am to grow up close to so many cousins and other relatives. I hope in a way my reflection and mourning upon this sunflower hill is felt back home.
