I am committed to continuing to be a voice for Ukraine’s strength and beauty, sharing their stories and advocating for support. 🕊️

🇺🇦Thinking of all of my Ukrainian friends, volunteers I met from around the world, and heroes on the front lines.
💪🏾 Reposting my first visit to the legendary Kachalka outdoor gym in Kyiv, built from scrap metal and community spirit.
➡️ Remember, whether it’s donating, raising awareness, or sending a message of encouragement, every action matters.

😺In a little bit, I’ll visit Cats on Mars to support their mission of finding forever homes for cats rescued from the frontline. 🐾

Exercises of the day: Chain-loaded clean squat to overhead press + Commando pull-ups 💪🏾
🇺🇸Back home in the U.S., I advocate for health equity. Here in #Kyiv, I found a living example of it.
🇺🇦First visit to the legendary Kachalka outdoor gym, built from scrap metal and community spirit.
🎯This gym isn’t just about fitness; it’s about connection and the enduring spirit of the Ukrainian people.

🇺🇦 Ukrainian Word of the Day: Druzhba
Druzhba means friendship
🗣️After my third visit to Ants Kitchen Hub in #Kyiv, I was gifted a Ukrainian flag. It was a meaningful gesture from a community of volunteers who prepare dry meals for frontline defenders.
🥔🥕The work here is simple and vital: we make nourishing, morale-boosting dry rations. I am committed to supporting this effort, and I will be back. That is my promise.✨

🇺🇦📸 #Photos from Day 1 in #Kyiv
After volunteering, I paid my respects to the defenders in Independence and Mykhailivska Squares 🕯️. I then took a walk and stumbled upon The Landscape Alley Parks, where a giant mosaic #cat made me smile.🐱
➡️ But more importantly, I saw Ukrainians from all walks of #life going about their day as normally as possible—a testament to their refusal to cower in the face of Russian aggression.
✨Tomorrow, I'll begin a new day of #humanitarian volunteering.
1/2 Update: Volunteering and Reconnecting in #Kyiv 🇺🇦 True Friendship
Today, during my fourth visit, I joined friends at Kitty Pechersk, helping weave camouflage 🕸️ nets for frontline defenders. It’s one of many ways this volunteer hub supports the #community —through aid, outreach, and care.
My Ukrainian friend Olena, who I met on a previous visit, helped refresh my memory on net-making. A day marked by teamwork and smiles🙂

Update: Arrived Safely in Kyiv 🇺🇦
After a morning of volunteering and a long bus ride from Kharkiv, I've made it to Kyiv. It's late evening now—time to rest and recharge. 🛌
I'm looking forward to tomorrow's work and reconnecting with Ukrainian friends and community-led groups.🇺🇦
Wishing everyone a good night.✨

Leaving Kharkiv for Kyiv 🇺🇦🇺🇸
🗣️It was an honor to serve alongside the team at Chervona Kalyna. I now call them friends. Their work is vital, inspiring, and I’ll return.
🇺🇸Before leaving, I handed them an American flag. May it serve as a symbol of my gratitude—and of the unwavering support of the American people for Ukraine’s fight for #freedom. 🕊️
✨Now I’m heading to my next destination for #humanitarian volunteering in #Kyiv.
More updates soon.
Thank you for standing with #Ukraine.🇺🇦
I love Kharkiv💛💙
It’s Day 4 here, and I’m starting the morning with a bit of volunteering at Chervona Kalyna. Later today, I’ll be 🚌heading to Kyiv to support other small local Ukrainian groups, but first, I’m making a stop to support local businesses at this beautiful marketplace.
📲Thank you for all your support. I’ll continue to post updates along the way.
Have a great day!☀️
