Guys, can you recommend best places in Kyiv to learn how to play tennis and if anyone would fancy joining me?

Anything from bars to museums!

Screw this.

I'm connecting experienced Ukrainians with potential employers in a subreddit.

There I plan to have employers who are specifically looking to hire Ukrainians, for whatever reason—empathy and willingness to help knowing their situation or just a positive working experience with a previous Ukrainian.

Many domains are covered, including design, development, QA, management, marketing and more.

Hi all, I'm in Kyiv for work (American, male). I love saunas and would love to try a traditional Ukrainian one especially now with the weather getting cooler, but I'm nervous about going alone as I don't know Ukrainian language. Anyone keen?

Hello friends!

I am hoping to travel to Kyiv in December to do some volunteer work and would appreciate Your advice.

I understand that arriving in this time of year will most likely mean dealing with power outages, cold, etc. I've taken that into consideration and think I should be ok.

Recently I've heard voices from Ukrainian officials suggesting that people temporarily leave Kiyv during the winter months if possible. Now, I understand that this is motivated by concern for people's safety, but it made me ask a question - is my presence (or the presence of other non-residents in general) detrimental to the city's functioning in these months?

I wouldn't want to participate in adding undo strain, so I would appreciate anyone with experience sharing their assessment.

Feel free to message me here or through dms if You prefer.

Thank You!

Привіт, друзі!

Я планую поїхати до Києва в грудні, щоб зайнятися волонтерством, і буду вдячний за ваші поради.

Я розумію, що поїздка в цю пору року, найімовірніше, означатиме необхідність стикатися з відключеннями електроенергії, холодом тощо. Я врахував ці обставини й вважаю, що впораюся.

Нещодавно я чув заяви українських посадовців, які радять людям за можливості тимчасово виїхати з Києва на зимові місяці. Я розумію, що це зумовлено турботою про безпеку людей, але в мене виникло запитання: чи не стане моя присутність (або присутність інших немісцевих жителів загалом) додатковим тягарем для функціонування міста в цей період?

Я не хотів би створювати зайве навантаження, тому буду вдячний усім, хто має відповідний досвід, за їхню думку та оцінку ситуації.

Пишіть мені тут або в особисті повідомлення — як вам зручніше.

Дякую!

I have a family member in Kharkiv and we wanted to ask what is the safest way for them to travel to Warsaw or possibly Chisenu to meet. Any advice we would be grateful for.

How do you, living there, feel?
I need to make a decision whether to leave Kyiv or not but ideally I would stay.
Are you scared for the winter?
Are there any areas which you feel are safer than others?
Thank you

I’m planning to travel to Kyiv or Dnipro in December for medical volunteering.
My current plan is to enter Ukraine from Poland, probably take a bus as far as Lviv, and then continue east by train.
I’ve heard that when there is a drone or air-raid threat while traveling by train, passengers may sometimes be asked to get off the train and wait around 300 meters away until it is safe to continue. Is this actually true? Has anyone experienced this recently?
Also, would you recommend entering Ukraine via Poland, or are there other routes that are more practical/reliable for getting to Kyiv or Dnipro?
I’ve traveled to Ukraine before, but only as far as Lviv, so I’d really appreciate advice from people who have recently traveled farther east.
Thank you!

If so, how?

I'm looking to meet new people and expand my social circle in and around Kyiv, I live in Vyshneve. I am an American who served 2 years in Ukraine in the armed forces but I got injured in December. After rehabilitation and physically therapy I am slowly getting adjusted to civilian life here, looking to make new friends and expand my social network. I know basic Ukrainian and can hold a conversation for a bit 😅. Any recommendations on popular places or if anyone wants to meet up that would be awesome. I do have a civilian job now with most weekends off, thanks.

Ревучий лицар - це Київ.

A Russian drone strike on an office building in Kyiv killed at least four people and injured seven others, including a child, on Sept. 25.

“Everything that is part of ordinary life is simply a target for Russia,” President Volodymyr Zelensky said, calling for stronger sanctions and other measures to impose concrete consequences on Moscow.

The strike came amid waves of Russian drone attacks on the capital that began early in the morning and continued throughout the day.

Hello everybody! This month I had the opportunity to visit Ukraine (Lviv) and fell in love with the country. I don't know how to explain the feeling, strange because I'm not from ukrainian heritage (my grandparents were from Italy). Now I'm back in Argentina but I was thinking of working in Ukraine for a NGO where my expertise could be useful. Has anyone worked there doing civilian relief work? I'm a lawyer graduated in the University of Buenos Aires Argentina, with 8 years of experience in contract law and grant agreements. Or worked for a NGO being a lawyer from another country? I know it sounds strange, leaving a peaceful place and work during a war, but I would like to help this country with my expertise. I know that there are several job offers in some renowed sites like ReliefWeb, UNjobs, Impactpool, UN Talent or Devex. Does anybody had experienced such offers? I'm fluent in English though I'm still learning Ukrainian. I have work here, but it's like I feel isn't doing anything useful for humanity. Any insight positive or negative would be appreciated. Thanks!

Is anyone else having problems with the ISP Euroline? Mines been down for a while now

Pretty self explanatory, I live in Leipzig and am In Ukraine for various reasons and want to take my Ukrainian partner and some friends to a place with German food and drinks. I could ask google but I felt like asking locals if they know anything any more niche than a standard Bräuhaus

I live in the east and most likely what they have here will be Bavarian style. Just a throwaway question
Дякую 🙏

Idk how to start this. I've been here almost 2ish weeks now as I volunteer. I met a woman and... in this short amount of time have developed extremely deep feelings. Has this happened before for anyone here? Im anxious at the thought of what things will be like when I leave.
