      Thank you for this beautiful video. I can't wait to vist Ukraine. As a Czech-American, this war is really tearing my 💔 . I see alot of Czech 🇨🇿 culture and language has some similarities to Ukrainian 💙💛. Only reason I have a life is because my great grandparents and grandparents fled Czechslovkia when the ruSSians invaded . I've grown up hearing the horror stories of the ruSSian invasion of my family members in Czechslovkia. This war is like watching your cousins and neighbors being destroyed 💔. My babushka didn't want to leave , same as the elderly Ukrainians . They told her she was just going on vacation to USA, then once they were here 🇺🇲, they told her this isn't a vacation. Ukraine and Ukrainian people are deep my heart ❤️. As many Americans, are half Polish ,Czech, Slovakian ect, ect our families were also invaded by ruSSia . Ukraine is our ❤️s. Slava Ukraine 💙💛💪🇺🇲 🇨🇿

      Hi Pavlo, Thanks for your lovely videos I see very often. Am worried about the death of Jack , lovely doggie. I will give a small advice. Never give raw meat to DOGS. Raw meat is toxic as far as I know, here in our country we give our dogs only cooked meat and, in here many dogs live for 10 to 15 years mostly with necessary vaccines and vitamins. Thanks

    Thanks again for showing the beauty of Ukraine, it so clearly shows what you're all fighting for. I've watched and loved your videos since you started your channel and since then became aware of how lovely Ukraine can be. It's one of the reasons, and the oldest and first reason, why I'm now donating monthly to United24 and am supporting the war effort. We may not all be fighting on the frontline, but we can still play our part, and your contribution might be bigger than you realize, please know that and keep doing what you're doing.
