Hi, there! It`s me, Kate - a passionate Ukrainian volunteer and traveller. Originally, I`m from Mykolayiv, which is a small city near Black Sea. Currently, I live in Kyiv and study at Kyiv Polytchnic Institute. But, probably, the word "science" is not about me, because I`m a linguist. I`m studying French and English technical interpreting there. Besides, I can`t live without volunteering, travelling, singing and meeting new people. In 2016, I was at United World Colleges Short Course "Re-thinking Identities" in Finland. For now, I`m an active member of NGO "Community ACTion Ukrainian Style - CACTUS" and that is why I like cacti ;) But this NGO is not about plants, but about non-formal education, project management and community activism for Ukrainian youngsters. You probably gonna hear a lot about CACTUS is you`ll be my host ;) Apart from that, I participate in various projects in different roles, so I definitely will have a story for your taste. Moreover, I try to combine my hobbies, so I started to learn Sign language and discover deaf culture. For me, that`s a perfect combination of my language career and social impact.
