ACTIVITIES

I had a two-week hike to the base camp at Everest in November 2019. This was a personal challenge that I have set for myself. This is an incredible experience. Another new skill I'm pursuing is learning to dive. I finished a basic course and received a license of a diver. I like to lead a healthy active lifestyle and like to exercise at the gym. I set myself new challenges and enjoy beating my personal best. I did volunteer work as a teacher of Ukrainian language and literature at Ukrainian Embassy in Kuwait 2016-2020 and continued it on the same position in Brooklyn, NY at Ukrainian School “New Wave” 2021-2024.
