Well dear readers, it appears that Ukraine, ranked 68th by International Living magazine at the beginning of the year, has now climbed to 49th in a recent Newsweek survey:

And behind their numbers is the rationale:

It goes against ever cell in my body to question the rationale these people have and living in Ukraine permanently, I have to say it is not as bad as people make it out to be……..and actually seems to be improving (adding a little weight to the recent survey)………. but, so as not to risk repeating myself…….I will refer you to a post I made when the International Living survey was posted using statistics more generally accepted by the planet:

Still, would I want to be anywhere else?………NO!
