Hello everyone, Being an expat in Ukraine can turn out to be a wonderful human, social or professional adventure... with potential moments of nostalgia and homesickness along the way. What are your personal tips to prevent homesickness? How ...
I don't get home sick but I sure miss quality service at a restaurant. By quality I mean, quality of food, service, and cleanliness. So many visitors think that this country is cheap but it's not. Bang for the buck, the service at all ... Read More
