Hey guys. Ukraine trip anon here. Turns out my shahed experience a few days ago was part of the largest Russian aerial attack in months. 60 drones and 90 missiles launched, targeting Ukraine's energy infrastructure. Last night there were lots of aerial strikes all across the country as well but I wasn't in the middle of the action this time.
I'm in Shpola right now. The geographical center of Ukraine is located here, along with a very nice monument. Wings in a circle which represent every oblast of Ukraine plus the autonomous republic of Crimea and the city Sevastopol. There's a heartbeat sound emitting from the middle of the monument. It's very tastefully done, even a little emotional if you know and care the slightest bit about the country.
And with that I've been to every Oblast I could reasonably get during the war. Only missing Crimea, Sevastopol and the Oblasts of Zaporizhia, Kherson, Donetsk and Luhansk. The war will end eventually, and I will return to catch them all.

I don't have any real life friends.
>>1986429It's actually two thin-ass mats. Concrete is best. It's been raining a lot. I'm not gonna be sleeping on wet grass or in the mud. The sleeping bag is king, a monster for winter temps. Has kept me warm down to -12°C degrees.
