Reality check

Ok, about now you must think I am doing nothing but moan about life here and some of you must be asking yourself why I am still here.
I am not complaining, simply telling it as it really is. This is the facts of life here in post soviet Ukraine. Its a mess, but there are sparks of hope. the economy is, slowly, improving. There is new construction work everywhere you look and more and more foreign companies are investing in Ukraine all the time. they are moving towards integration into Europe and this can only be good for them. It is a slow thing, with the old rusting russian chains still strangling the East of Ukraine and holding the whole country back, but it wont last.
The biggest problem this country faces is reforming the corruption in the country...
