Ukraine isn’t like Western Europe, where everyone speaks English — most folks speak little to none, so I was pleasantly surprised to capture the following birthday celebration.

Random Quote about Kyiv:
"For me it's very important to turn Kyiv into one of the main centers of contemporary art in the world. There is New York. There's London. And there will be Kyiv. Everyone will come and say, 'Wow!'"

Hi, I’m an American expat living and working in Kyiv, Ukraine. I created this website to capture my experiences in Kyiv and to share my sentiments on Ukrainian life. It’s not hyperbole to say that living abroad has fundamentally changed me. I’ve met some of the most interesting people, adapted to a new culture, and visited places that have changed my way of thinking. I’m so grateful to have had these experiences and genuinely just wanted to share them.
