4 Years of Hive Blockchain Journey - My Wednesday walk in Den Haag

4 years on Hive Blockchain and I had no idea about it until @hivebuzz reminded me that it was my Hive Birthday. I almost forgot about it. Strange life conditions and life situations pushed me somewhere I had no idea about anything else. Isn't it strange that I forgot about my Hive Birthday where I have spent my 4 years!!! I remember I used to be active 24/7 and used to be involved with a lot of communities and people. I have written a lot of posts featuring my Ukraine journey. But now I barely get time to write something. I guess I have made over 1k vlogs which are still on Hive and other social media and they remind me always how I was before the war. A small part of my Ukraine life is intact on Hive, safe and secure. If I wanna read or recall my memories, I can look into my 4 years old posts. It's amazing.

I am grateful to the Hive community, the entire community helped me the most when I needed it. Not only did Hive financially support me but also the entire community supported me a lot when the war break out. Because of the community people, I was able to leave Ukraine and gathered the courage to jump on the evacuation train from Kharkiv to Lviv. I don't wanna bother them by mentioning their name because the list is huge. More than my relatives, the people of the hive helped me a lot. I remember when the war broke out, my dm was full and most of the concerns were from the hive community. From crossing the Poland border until now, the people of Hive are still helping me and supporting me. In Poland, the Polish Hive family gave me and my dog a shelter, took good care of my big girl, and provided everything for me including travel costs to the Netherlands. Many sent me tips, liquid Hive which helped me a lot financially after leaving Ukraine. Some Hive people had taken me shopping as well. @gtg this time, if you are coming to Amsterdam to attend HiveFest, the pending ramen lunch is on me ;)...

In the Netherlands, also Hive people helped me a lot by sending me goodies and a lot of information about the Netherlands. A very kind person from Hive also provided me shelter when I arrived in den Haag. Even people from Germany have sent me packages as well. I felt like the entire Europe Hive community was still with me. I am connected with them deeply, especially with @asia-pl and @jocieprosza family. There are a lot of things to talk about Hive and I guess I need a whole separate post to show my gratitude. One thing I can say is that behind almost every account on Hive, there is a real person who has a soft heart and a mind to help people like me. Not all people are the same, but many good people are on Hive.

After leaving Poland, I directly went to Den Haag, Holland. I had no idea about the city or where I was going until I reached there in person. Den Haag is known as the royal capital of the Netherlands. In English Den Haag is known as The Hague.

It's a beautiful city indeed where different people from all over the world live there. I was only for 24 hours in Den Haag and later I left for Amsterdam because I wanted to find help from Redcross which unfortunately I didn't find timely in Den Haag. I didn't find much time to explore the city, I didn't make any videos or anything about Den Haag because I was tired and also exhausted and restless.

After sending the night in Den Haag, we went to find some help as we were from Ukraine. At that time Netherlands welcomed people from Ukraine with an open heart :P. So, our first target was to go to the city center of Den Haag to find information about refugees but it was Saturday so everything was almost closed. Unfortunately, we didn't find any information booth or Redcross point in Den Haag so we had to leave for Amsterdam.

On our way to the central station, I saw the beautiful landscape of the city. I felt like it is an organized city.

I did try to do some architectural photography because in Kharkiv we didn't have such kinds of skyscrapers...

The beautiful architecture and skyscrapers really had blown away my mind, some locations were clean and nice. It was the beginning of spring and the weather was cold because the winter was about to leave. So, everything was a little bit gloomy.

I didn't get much time to spend in Den Haag because my luggage and Gigi was with me and I was not a tourist. I was new in Netherlands and was trying to find shelter for myself. These images were taken while going to the rail station...

The weather was not sunny at all, it was cloudy and cold.

I don't remember any locations in Den Haag. I only remember china town and few shops and railway station, that's all. I was actually not in a mood to explore the city.

Hopefully next time I will visit Den Haag like a tourists...

Thank you so much for reading...
