Cousin Brian has started the biggest adventure of his life. He is now in Philadelphia, eating cheese steak sandwich's from Pats, running stairs at the Art Museum like Rocky and trying to steal the Declaration of Independence like Nicholas Cage in American Treasure. He is there for a couple days before heading to Munich then to Kiev, Ukraine.Brian has joined the Peace Corps and will be in and around Kiev for the next 3 years. He is really excited about going and should have a great time. He will be able to travel around the area and all over Eastern Europe. He will be taking language and orientation classes for about 3 months and then will be unleashed on the people of the Ukraine.
His US dollar will go kinda far there to...the exchange rate of $1 USD to a Ukrainian Hryvnia is 4.90. Hope he can find some cool stuff to bring home for me!! Here is a great website to know everything about the Ukraine, http://kievukraine.info/reference.htm
Have a great time, Cousin Brian...we will miss you at the Cheeky Monk and late night drinks at Poppies.
Mason
