OH where to start... Being a man who is surrounded by horses, I decided to keep my eyes open for a woman who likes horses. But I was amazed to find the most remarkable horse professional in Ukraine. The moment I saw her on a horse I was following her. The instant our eyes met in the restaurant Verneki, in Nikolaev, I knew. From that start we both felt as if we knew each other for years. And our common love of horses is an unshakable foundation. On our second date, I was discussing the loss of one of my horses and a tear began to form in my eye. I tried to hide it, but nothing gets past Olga. And she said the next day that she knew I was her man. That was in 2009. I have been back many times and wished each time that we could have started the visa process sooner. But relationships take time in Ukraine. And I am thankful for the chance to travel and learn that each trip has provided. Now a new chapter begins. 2011 is our year to hope for a change and we will be together!
