Who: Natasha Griboyedova
Natasha Griboyedova is from Ukraine and says that big cities will build in such ways that people can make much of anything. Natasha also painted a rooster, her backstory was that she painted her impressions back to her childhood. She drew those things to help her see how beautiful the world was. She also had a rooster that attacked anyone that came near him/her, and she drew another painting of a crab and a painting representing seven days of the creation. Cool facts about Ukraine are orthodox church is one of the religions there. Ukraine also has a lot of churches and people go to worship there on holidays. Ukraine developed communities of the Church of Christ and she is a member, and these are some of Ukraine's religions. Her hobbies in Ukraine are growing vegetables, grains, and other plants. She was also teaching at the international school and helped teach culture from Ukraine, and she made a movie with pictures about dumplings. She also noticed the difference between the US and Ukraine is that we are not into war and not into violence, and due to that, people in Ukraine work everywhere.
Natasha is also a translator and can speak English, Ukrainian, Russian, and a little bit of German. She says that she was affected and other people by the war by explosives and seeing other people dying just because of Russia. She keeps seeing missiles from Russia destroying other buildings in Ukraine, and a big part of the electricity is cut off. It also cut off a bunch of communication. She said lives are lost, and “human lives cannot be fixed”. A lot of Ukrainian people left the country because they wanted to protect their loved ones from death. Natasha's family are living all together all in the same house due to the war and would not want anyone to get in a situation in which Natasha is in. Her husband and some other family members are still in Ukraine. She went on the train to leave, and there weren't many places left, and due to Poland the Ukrainian people had a place to go. 7 million Ukrainian people left their own country due to Russia. Germany also helped the Ukrainian people to find a place to live. Norway, Sweden, and Finland also helped Ukraine due to this hard time. She also helped try to save Ukrainian people by leaving the country, but they were too scared to live and said “where do we go next”?
Previously she had plane tickets to leave Ukraine, but the airlines did not accept Ukrainian people, but everything went well in the end. Ukrainian people like to hear traditional music and classical music and more. Superstition is also known in Ukraine.
