I got ready quickly, rushing after work to catch a concert in the city center. I was imagining the piano passages of Evgeny Khmara and a virtuosic performance of French chanson. I must have been only slightly

What a mess! Everything is as usual! My trips are getting shorter and shorter and are not as interesting as they were three and a half years ago... I had intended to go to the town of Altino, near Venice...

EN Hello, everyone. Spring is a kind of annual lecture we all attend—one where the subject remains the same, but the lessons feel new every time. I love exploring these cozy Lviv courtyards. Damp laundry

EN Hello everyone. I want to leave a memory of this day here. This week, I’ve been clearing out my father’s room. I took out the trash, his old things, and took apart the furniture. Finally, today I reached

​Hello! My personal reflections on life, family, and the choices we make. English is not my native language. Written in Ukrainian, translated into English for the Hive community. Photos are from my personal

Hello everyone. As someone who deeply values authenticity, I want to share a vivid dream I had recently. It was incredibly symbolic, and after breaking it down and analyzing what my subconscious was trying

Привіт усім. Вже п'ятниця і я доєднююся до ініціативи #fridaypoem @lilideleopolis . Вночі я часто прокидаюся близько п'ятої ранку чи ночі. І сон такий, що відчуваю його, чи ж не сон це був? Я вставила

In Ukraine, March is a month of tribute to our national genius, Taras Shevchenko. It was a "no-plans" kind of day, filled with a sense of pure liberation. It was only the third of March, yet

Привіт усім. Ось знову я хотіла писати серйозний допис про генія Шевченка, про сина, чи про карткову вежу. Але я почула етюд Олега Чабана і в мені йойкнуло- "Ось". Рекомендую усім слухати і чути

​Have you ever felt the existence of two parallel worlds—the child’s and the adult’s? ​Today, I visited Pani Liuda. We drank coffee brewed in a copper cezve in her tiny kitchen, sharing stories—her world

​Hi everyone! While walking through the city this Friday, I stopped by "Dzyga" on Virmenska Street. "Dzyga" is the heart of my beloved Lviv—a place where art doesn't hide behind cryptic

​Hello everyone. Today, a woman was telling me how much she wanted to feel spring, how she was waiting for the warmth to bring her something extraordinary, and then she wished me a magical spring moment.

​Передмова: ​Привіт усім. Мені здавалося, що весна має все розставити по місцях, як на шаховій дошці. Крок за кроком, хід вперед, втрати, обмін фігурами, шах і мат. ​Вчора Максим розставляв фігури на дідусевій

Вчора був день народження Володимира Івасюка, чия музика була актом свободи. Моя подруга покликала мене на концерт. Я одягнула сукню і пішла на цю зустріч. Коли заходиш у залу , то простір розширюється

Привіт усім. Десь місяць тому я писала про те як на "Вернісажі" спілкувалася з продавчинею, яка розповідала, що записала свого сина в художню школу імені Олекси Новаківського. Вона порадила мені

​Hello everyone. Last Friday, I attended a concert at the Lviv Philharmonic. The evening began with Bach. His music on the organ feels like the foundation of a cathedral: unshakable logic and a vertical

​Hi everyone! ​The other day, I was crossing a busy street. The traffic was intense—two lanes of cars rushing in each direction. A woman stood nearby, also waiting to cross. I turned to her and said,

​Hi everyone. Even though I went to the concert on Monday, the emotions are still swirling inside me. I was especially moved by Alexander’s soulful, almost ethereal violin performance. ​Today, I want to

Привіт усім. Відлига у Львові теж створює музику. Я не знаю як це відбувається, але це просто якась магія. Я почула в понеділок зранку симфонію. Я йшла по своїм справами в місто. Спочатку я привіталася

​Today, I was drinking coffee in a cafe; I simply arrived at work a bit early. While I was ordering and waiting for my morning latte, a small white dog in the other corner of the cafe kept barking shrilly
