The Ukrainian flag is half aqua blue and marigold yellow which students at the local university, where we are teaching English this month, tell us represents the sky and fields. Ironically, this is one of the very first things I noticed about the Ukraine countryside.

Blue and yellow make green, therefore green reminds me of the beauty that is the people and country of Ukraine.

Morgan, one of my teammates, took an incredible video capturing this emotion beautifully. Unfortunately, I couldn't upload the video but here's a picture that almost does it justice. 

For tonight’s team time we wrote prompts or questions for each other to blog about in only 5 minutes. The prompt I received was…

Write about the color green and the way it’s affected you in Ukraine.

So, how does the color green affect you?
