well hello guys I hope you're having an
amazing day and welcome to my channel if
you are here for the first time I am
currently in Chattanooga State which is
in western Ukraine and for today's video
I wanted to do something that's a little
bit different than the usual content I
do of showing you the main cities
showing you tourist attractions how you
can more easily see Ukraine yourself if
you're an English speaker so I wanted to
do something a little bit more in-depth
and kind of give you guys more of a
window of how the average person lives
in Ukraine having said that I feel like
that is a bit of a difficult thing to
define I truly think that at the end of
the day life and the experience of life
really comes down to your perspective so
by no means is this video some absolute
sort of call about what life is like in
Ukraine but just a different sort of
windows and the things that I usually
show you guys
so I am currently in a very traditional
Soviet times living complex and it's
interesting because yes these buildings
do look very beat-up and in need of
restoration on the outside but I will
say that it actually is surprising that
when you go into some people's
apartments it looks much better like
much new or they do a lot of
refurbishing to the inside but the
outside is obviously kind of the
building managers priority and usually
very little money gets put towards that
so a question that people always ask me
is what is the average wage in Ukraine
and it's a little hard to put an exact
figure on it because it really is going
to range depending on which part of
Ukraine you know you are talking about
this amount could have you living fairly
well in Ukraine or it could be well
below you know what you need to survive
so from my research online and what
people here have told me it's
approximately four to five hundred US
dollars a month and that's somebody with
a college education and you know with
good work experience like that's a
normal amount of money to be receiving
every month is it enough to live
comfortably in the larger cities
definitely not unless you have a whole
bunch of people living under one roof
which is usually you know what families
have to do like for example my family in
Kiev my grandma when she was alive would
live with my uncle and his family under
one roof because we luckily had a very
nice downtown apartment back in the
Soviet times when it was just like given
to you so for us to purchase like
another sort of apartment would have
been very expensive
but once again I just want to reiterate
that I'm not trying to make life seem
super bleak here because it's not you
know many people live incredible
fulfilled lives and not everybody's like
struggling every single month that
Ukrainians definitely know how to
celebrate and have a good time but I
think they're you know priorities are
just different then ours is in the West
a lot of times out of necessity a lot of
times of just looking at life in a
different way there's much more of a
focus here of building a good home being
able to cook at home centering a lot of
celebration around you know the family
so to say I think they are much more
family oriented here in Eastern Europe
in general than we are in North America
so it's just a different emphasis of
priorities because there is a difference
in opportunities that are available to
people here in comparison to people in
the West kirusha Roberta Patil

so if you guys have been watching my
channel for quite some time you'll have
probably seen my immigration story a
link it in the description if you guys
want to check it out but basically in
that video I was talking about how my
mom and I came over to Canada how my dad
Gordon just you know basically changed
the trajectory of our life by bringing
us to Canada and I've always had this
thought in the back of my head of how
different my life would be if I would
have stayed in Ukraine and I'm not
necessarily saying that in a negative
sort of way I don't think there's any
way to know you know how things would
have worked out I have no idea but I
think overall it goes without saying
that by coming to Canada I was able to
have so many more opportunities and so
much more ease and being able to choose
what I wanted to do and not having other
kinds of you know societal pressures as

news night so becomes a guy stuff why
the class man space you of my show
so I am currently in one of the most
famous places in Chelsea which is their
incredible University this is actually
one of the oldest universities here in
Ukraine it was built in 1875 and it's
also one of the most well esteemed
universities in Ukraine
that's probably why a lot of young
people come to this city but on that
note I actually thought that I would
leave the video here for the time being
because I do believe that for any
country the direction and the trajectory
of what's going to be coming next for
that country is going to be coming from
their young people so here in Ukraine
the universities really are the starting
points for how Minds are going to be
molded what kind of new ideas are going
to be coming about and the future
leaders of a country so I hope you guys
enjoyed this video and found it
interesting I'd love to know what you
thought in the comments down below let
me know if you'd like to see more of the
style of content or if you have any
other suggestions hope you guys are
having an amazing day keep being your
own kind of beautiful and I will see you
soon bye guys
