Yes, we’re ready to host now when there’s a war in Ukraine. And we only want to host someone who loves and supports Ukraine.

Since lot of CSs have been asking, I’d like to tell you about the current situation here so you knew better whether you still want to visit Odesa or not.

Everyday life here is as fine as it can be, people try to live to the fullest no matter what. We have all the great things you expect to get when you travel to the countries that haven’t been attacked by their insane neighbors but aside of nice places and interesting activities we also have frequent air alarms, we have bomb shelters (there’s one next to our building, we’ll show you but won’t join you since we stopped trying to hide at some point), once in a while we hear a rocket or a drone hit and there’s a chance it was hit by our air defense as well as there’s a chance it hit its target, and we have curfew from 12pm to 5 am (bye-bye parties all night long).

It’s stressful here but life goes on and we are getting more and more accustomed to the stress, it’s a human nature.

Music - indie, folk, and ethnic music, old pop and rock music, rap, street music, jazz.
Movies - we love not only the most weird festival movies and the greatest Hollywood pieces but also romcoms, sitcoms, anime and Netflix hits.
