I have always loved Eastern European Poets now I find at 49 no less I am living with a lovely young man from Ukraine who is just 18! In supported housing! He has come from a war zone! I managed due to my skills to organise his English Tuition but he has things he will not tell me and blank spots! I love him- I gave him two gifts but I had to spell his name! I wanted to help him feel I love his language as much as he might need at this stage to learn mine, English in London! What he has seen I do not like to imagine. He has trauma. I try to help him when other people dismiss him. He is my friend so this has been a fabulous tool and I am going to make him grin with my bad attempts at pronunciation if it kills me! ❤️

You have a beautiful voice. You encourage me to learn Ukrainian. Previously bought a book but the alphabet was impossible. I'll give it another go using your lessons. Here goes. Do Zustrichi! Dyakuyu! From Ireland.
