Many people had discouraged us from going because of the crisis in eastern Ukraine.  They were fearful it would spread to the west and that we would get caught in harm’s way.

For one thing, the Zhitomir region is approximately 500 miles from Donetsk and the other areas where the fighting took place.  And secondly, about the time we got there the fighting in the east had more or less subsided.

This past year, we had several tours scheduled, but because of the unknown factors in the crisis, the tours were canceled.  This was understandable.  But now, having been there and accessed the situation, I can say with confidence that if the situation remains about the same, there is no reason why the tours cannot be resumed.

If there is an interest and need, there might even be a second tour during a mutually acceptable time of the year.  Or, if you would like a customized tour, I know that Alex, my assistant in Ukraine, is eager to serve you.
