New members of the Ukraine forum, introduce yourselves here - 2021

Been to Ukraine many times in my US Air Force/Government career. Kyiv, Rivne, Lviv, Poldava, Odessa to name a few.  Was in Kyiv last November and stayed at the Hotel Kozatskiy near the Maiden in Independence Square.  Love your country. I am part Ukrainian/Russian as well. Related to the Czar Nicholas and some other members of importance in Ukraine, but do not know who they were.  I have a wonderful lady who lives in Lviv and hope to return soon to see her and hopefully some day, I would love live there. Wish I could speak the language.  Enjoy Ukrainian cuisine, too!!!

Hi everyone, or "howdy" as we say back in Texas. I lived in China for seven years and left because of a little incident in Wuhan that some of you may have seen something about in the news once or twice.
Now I'm in Kharkiv, and I'm scheduled for 2 weeks here but I'm looking around to see if I want to stick around for 90 days (I say that because on day 91 you need a visa, and I'm self-employed). Looking to see what can be seen, and I'm glad to be here.

Hello

I am William.  I have been living in Kropyvnytskyi for over three years,  I am retired Electrical Engineer,
but do volunteer work at the local Library 5 nights a week.  I find it difficult to learn the language(s) because everyone wants to use their English and practice with me.  at the Library I conduct the "English Discussion Club" for advanced students

I have a temporary residence card good until 2022.  I think i will extend it even though my business never got going for a variety of reasons.  I have a small pension so I am okay financially.

I am interested in learning about how I should acquire and properly register a car.  And of course properly insure myself and the automobile.  I have been riding the share taxi and have no problems with the system. 

The COVID 19 did catch me and i spent some time in the regional hospital.  Fortunately I did not have a bad case and was discharged soon with a list of medicines a mile long.  This month will be my 5th month since getting out.  I have been tested 6 times after discharge and continue to be covid free!!

I found this forum this morning and want to explore the information and possibilities.

Hope to hear from you!

William

Hello.  I am Keith and arrived in Kiev 3 days ago.  I was living in Siem Reap, Cambodia for 8 months until Covid came.  Then I got my Covid jab in-the-arm back in the USA (home) and then travelled here.  I will be here 3 months, if I behave.  I lived in Japan for 5 years, S. Korea 1 year.  I'm looking to connect with people who get around and talk about what they found in Kiev.  I only speak English.  I've been to Netherlands back in 1984 for 1 week but never to any other European countries, so the language here sounds foolish to me.  I did have a foreign exchange student in the USA live in my home 1 year and he was from Russia (7th grader).  That sums up what I have under the hood.  Hope to meet some of you.

Hi, I will visit Kiev from 1 August. Would like to hook up with fellow South Africans.

Hi all

My name is Martin, from the UK, know live near Odesa only a few hundred meters from the black sea. I got married four years ago and moved here at the same time. I have bought a car and obtained a Ukrainian driving licence, the real funny thing was i had to have a provisional for a year (after being a driver for 30 plus years ) well any ways kept it clean and got my full licence, no stopping me know. We hope to travel around the Ukraine and visit many friends in Europe. I find it hard to read or should i say pronounce the Cyrillic so my Ukrainian and Russian is well rubbish but i am still learning. The good thing is my wife speaks pretty good English except when she gets a deaf ear and shouts gobbly gook at me lol.

Hi from Arizona, USA.
Been trying to make a decision to move to Ukraine but now with the Russian threat being imposed on Ukraine, it may not be a wise decision!!  I am retired from the US Air Force and the US government.  At one time four years ago I had a Ukrainian lady from Rivne but it ended suddenly.  Today, I  was considering moving to Belarus but that idea is not recommended based on the current issues of the Russian/Belarusan debacle.
I have been to Ukraine many times in my military/government career and established a "kinship" with the country.  Based on my cousin, HIRH Prince George Frederich of Prussia, I have a lineage of Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusan, Prussian, Danish, Norwegian, British, Polish and Lithuanian ancestory.  Kyiv, Rivne, Lviv, Poltava, Donensk are some cities I have visited, so I hold Ukraine close to me.  I have been on this site for quite a while but decided to communicate to see if I get a response.  When I last visited Kyiv (2019), I stayed at the Hotel Kozatskiy located very near the Maiden (Independence Square).  A very beautiful part of Kyiv.  I hope to return someday with the intention of making Kyiv my permanent residency!  RSVP if you desire.
Regards,
