Prior to the war, Taisiia was entering what she describes as the best years of her life. As a student, she was surrounded by an incredible circle of friends and looking forward to graduate from university. She had envisioned a future of teaching English and aiding others. Soon after the war started, Taisiia moved to various parts of England before settling in West Sussex where she feels safe and supported by wonderful and friendly people. She is helping other Ukrainians with interpreting and translating. Taisiia eagerly anticipates the time where she will be able to invite her host family to a flourishing Ukraine once peace is restored
