My Grandfather was born and lived in Poryck, present day Pavlivka, in 1920 until they were taken away when he was 19. I wonder if he ever visited Lviv. Beautiful architecture, thank you for showing us. It's good to see in this way how life is for the people. My heart longs to return. Much love to you all beloved brethren. One Love

Yes Orest, from the first few videos you've been driving us around to several towns and villages of Ukraine. Early on we drove through some farmland between various villages on the way toward the Carpathion Mountains. I truly enjoy these rides and hearing the naritive along the way. By the way, you also introduced us to Vasyl, how is he and the family, yes your sister, too? I remember specifically seeing like peasant homes and gardens with very rich looking soil, I was impressed, and want to visit for real sometime soon. I also am impressed with Lviv. I want to walk the neighborhoods when I come to visit. I hope this old body will hold up 'till I have an opportunity to spend it in your remarkable land. Thanks again Orest, later, Bye.........................Old Dave

I am looking forward information about refugees living there and what kind of care they are receiving. I am very happy that you are showing us that magnificent city.

There are many "gossips" on internet regarding this and questions why people to escape the war are going to other countries and not to cities like Lviv? In my statement I already expressed that I am happy to see people enjoying "normal life" there. From what I see on the map- Lviv is not that far away from Kiev, but the difference is shocking.

Terrific video...always useful & interesting to access vids like this.. I've studied the history of us city & region , with particular focus on when the city & region were part of the Austro - Hungary Empire , as Galicia- Lodomeria...some 250 years.. the influence of this period still astonishingly present... Quite amazing so much has survived WW2 & the Soviet period... My feeling is once the war is over ( & Ukraine is victorious) , this city will be the gateway between Europe & Ukraine..obviously it serves this purpose already , but peaceful conditions will supercharge opportunities of all kind , in particular business opportunities !

Without the sound of the brics on the road it isn't my Lviv... I know nearly all streets you drove. Not because I know the whole city, but avtovoksal isn't far away and with bus or taxi I saw a lot of parts from the south of Lviv. Before the war 2022 there were a few more cars on the street in the city. Maybe during the week. It was funny to see I was more quickly to walk than cars to drive in the inner city... And yes. It's not possible to see in Lviv there's a war. Sure. I know the sound of air alarm. In summary I was in Lviv for nearly six weeks since 2022 and I will return next month. Stay save, Slava Ukraini and let all enemies leave Ukraine.
