I am learning Russian slowly and this is a great help. I have traveled to Ukraine several times spending several months there and traveled throughout the country always staying in private residences. I found the language very difficukt at first but am now better able to understand it. I find your posts very interesting and very helpful. I am learning Russian slowly and this is a great help.
