Thank you sharing views of Kiev. In past years I’ve visited the Chernobyl museum, did a short cruise on the Dnipro river; and milked a cow in Poltava Oblast.

[@TaniaKovba]

What a versatile trip you had. Poltava region is amazing

I remember to this day going onto this kinda market in Kyiv. For me as a German it was quite the experience (roughly 2017) because here it is very different. I cherish those memories to this day..everybody was always very kind to me there and to this day that stuck in my memory..to better times

[@TaniaKovba]

Glad to hear you have been in Kyiv and still have warm memories 😊

[@ravensdark99]

@@TaniaKovba I have been many times before the war and what struck me most is , that I am German, and we Germans were historically not always the nicest people (to put it mildly) and then never played a role for anybody I met in Ukraine, everybody was always very nice...and that stuck

[@MrVince8]

In the US those prices at the farmers market would be better than good. They would be great. The produce looked so good, it made me hungry for some fresh vegetables and fruit.

[@sjwoz]

We love your videos and pray for better times for all people there. Slava Ukraine!

The criminal behavior of Russia is stunning.

[@petterherlofsen7269]

Hello Tania yesterday I bought some tomatoes from Kherson at the store😊

[@TaniaKovba]

Hello! Wow, that’s a rare find now

[@johnpasquale7095]

Eggplant parm ftw!! Your growing season is ahead of ours in New England. No tomatoes or peppers yet and this week we just started getting corn. Your apricots are enormous. I go to my Farmers Market every Saturday. Lichi would love it. It's a playground for dogs.

[@TaniaKovba]

This year spring came here too early and we have everything ripened early. Oh yes, playground would be great, we don’t have it and we leave Lichi at home when go to the market.

[@paulwhiteside]

Hi there Tania. What a great video filled with sunshine and hope. I live in the UK and have a very special Ukrainian friend. I admire your positive spirit. Slava Ukraini. Heroyiam Slava. You are all heroes, each and every one of you. Stay safe and my very best wishes to you and your family.🇺🇦🇬🇧🕊️🌅

[@AndrenBates]

Greetings Tania, Such a wonderful sight that your all good and healthy, It's always good to see the street markets with lots of produce, so much tastier than supermarkets foods, Take care as you always do, especially with any heatwave please drink plenty of water, Though good to see life goes on even without electricity, SLAVA UKRAINA, 💯😀👌✨️👍💙🌻🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦

[@TaniaKovba]

Thank you for the words of support ❤️

[@jorgetoledo8254]

If the weather get too hot and humidy make 3 ou 4 cold shower at the day like they do it in the amazones rain forest Praying for y'all that very soon everything will go back to normal good luck to you all

[@TaniaKovba]

The only problem is that we very often don’t have a water supply when electricity off (especially on the higher floors)😂so I need to stock some bottles of water always

[@DominikGentener]

Those fruits and vegetables really look great, Tania.

[@Rio-by1eh]

We love Ukraine 📈📈📈📈💫💫✨💯🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴

[@jorgetoledo8254]

Tania you just make me very hungry now I would love to test some of the fruits as well

[@TaniaKovba]

😄

[@amaromem1]

They look very similar to street markets in Mexico, but in Mexico markets are overcrowded and noisy. In this Ukrainian market in the car road? 🤔

[@TaniaKovba]

Yes, it’s a car road😁Every Saturday this road is closed till afternoon and a big market (~1 kilometer) unfolds here

[@rickyladno]

Thankyou and take care!

[@aarhusnord]

Your frustration is understandable, but this is exactly the direction Russians want your mind to move. Defying the Russians therefore also means to accept and adapt to what happens. Change, what you can change. And find solutions to the rest. Or ignore, what you can ignore. The men, mostly, at the front may live under much more frustrating conditions. To them, it is not only about comfort and mental fatigue, but also survival. As long as you keep going, despite the challenges, you counteract Putin. Every day he cannot break you, you become stronger and he weaker.

[@TaniaKovba]

Thank you for the encouraging words! Exactly what I think in the moments of weakness and don’t let myself get off the track

[@aarhusnord]

@@TaniaKovba You are welcome. Not saying, that you are getting frustrated too easy. But Putin wants you to give up. Here in Denmark, media mention polls, including one from today in Kyiv Independent, where more Ukrainians are said to be willing to give up territory for peace. There appears to be war fatigue. So maybe now it is time to hold on and stay strong.

[@TaniaKovba]

@@aarhusnord that is sad statistics(

[@aarhusnord]

@@TaniaKovba You can always say, that it is propaganda or disinformation, but I guess Kyiv Independent is pro-Ukrainian and reliable. However, such information may also lead to the idea of a compromise, a deal growing here. "The Ukrainians want it themselves..."

[@aarhusnord]

​@@TaniaKovba I trust that that paper is pro-Ukrainian and reliable. But it also gives people up here the idea, that negotiations and a peace deal are approaching in return for peace. Peace with Putin is like putting your head into a crocodile's mouth after it has promised not to bite. Ukraine will have to make a very important decision at some time. Will it continue to fight for its 1991-borders? Or what it had before the February 2022 invasion? Or some kind of peace deal, where Russia will take its part and move closer to Ukraine? What does an end to the war look like? What is realistic? What kind of guarantees can be had? I believe, that a deal with the present regime and Putin is quite worthless. But until that is known, you have to fight on.

That fresh produce does look great! Everything looked great the way you served this dishes!

[@jeffhoyle7900]

What kind of tomatoes are those?

[@TaniaKovba]

Oh we have so many of them. I know that those were home grown and it is always visible from their shape

[@richardlaycock-o5q]

Whats the price of garlic per kg please

[@TaniaKovba]

It’s $3-4 per kg. Is it expensive compared to your country?

[@richardlaycock-o5q]

@@TaniaKovba thank you

[@nemoemanon6679]

Compared to where I shop in Canada, that is a very good price for garlic. All the prices of fruits and veggies were much lower. I grow our own veggies so I don’t buy veggies in the summer.

[@robbypolter6689]

​@@TaniaKovbaGarlic is inexpensive by Ukrainian standards. The price of good garlic starts at 1.00 euros for 100 grams and for organic quality it can be 2 to 3 euros for 100 grams. The German economy is suffering from the sanctions we have imposed on Russia. The economic damage for Germany amounts to over 200 billion euros for 2022 and 2023. European agriculture has been losing around 7 billion euros in profits every year since 2014, with the first sanctions against Russia. Economic growth for Germany was only forecast by the EU at 0.1 percent for 2024. Germany is in last place among the G20 countries. Russia, on the other hand, has moved from 8th place to 4th place, the place Germany once held. Even the Russian ruble has remained almost unchanged for 5 years, making it one of the most stable currencies in the world. Due to the sanctions against Russia, consumer prices here have risen by 150 percent in some cases. Since Germany no longer imports cheap natural gas and oil from Russia, but rather via third countries, these prices for consumers have also exploded. As a result, the security of electricity supply in Germany is no longer guaranteed in the medium term. Inflation is doing the rest, 10 percent has already been reached. Parts of the German economy and industry are trying to circumvent the sanctions in order to regain a foothold in Russia. Other large companies are considering leaving Germany forever. We cannot afford the financial support that Germany gives to Ukraine because we do not have these sums. These are all loans that Germany ultimately has to pay for. The budget of the Federal Republic of Germany must again be financed through loans, as was the case last year. Germany is heading towards record debt (around 300 billion euros). Just caring for refugees, asylum seekers and economic migrants costs the German taxpayer 48 billion euros every year.

Hi, awesome content, Subbed

[@TaniaKovba]

Hey, thanks❤️

[@robbypolter6689]

Where is the war in Ukraine, apart from the front in Donbass?! Why are there still houses there and people have time to spend time outside and enjoy the beautiful weather?? My German media tells me almost every day that Ukraine is in ruins!! This is not the first video from Ukraine that shows an almost peaceful atmosphere. The fact that Ukraine's own cities have no electricity is solely due to the incompetence of the Ukrainian electricity network operator. Ukraine receives a lot of electricity from Hungary, Poland and Romania. The quantities are sufficient to cover the currently missing needs.

[@TaniaKovba]

Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, Kharkiv, Sumy region(where my parents live, villages on the border are literally destroyed and no life there), Chernihiv region on the border the same situation. Sorry for being still alive and don’t meet your expectations

[@aarhusnord]

@@robbypolter6689 Denmark here. Germany's problems are due to many factors. For example, the decision to shut down nuclear power plants after the Fukushima accident. Besides that, Germany stood still for 16 under Merkel. All of Germany's problems cannot be blamed on the war, it also goes back to decisions taken after the Fukushima accident, an energy demanding industry and incompetent leadership. A government, that hoped cheap Russian gas would flow forever. Here in Denmark, our green energy sector has placed us in a better position than Germany. Until recently, we also had oil and natural gas of our own from the North Sea.

Come to house I have lots of electricity. Leave your husband at home.

[@aarhusnord]

@@boknows3841 Bit naive to believe, that she will leave her nation and husband, simply to have 220 Volt from a socket. Tania is not just pictures on a screen, she is also a human and has emotions, as all other humans. Words on a screen can also hurt or irritate.
