Dear Santa Claus,
Ahoy from Ukraine, where the magic of winter dances with echoes of old traditions!
This year, I'm dreaming of a Christmas as enchanting as a Carpathian folk tale.
So here is my festive fable.
Imagine that.
As the snow globe named sways, it transports you to Kyiv's Andrievsky Descent, complete with cobblestone streets, colorful food stalls, and a soundtrack of Bandura music.
Maybe Rudolph will learn some new dance steps from Hopak's snowman.
Now let's talk about snacks.
Christmas in Ukraine is not complete without a glass of homemade uzvar, a sweet nectar of dried fruits and warmth.
How about a GPS to guide you through the intricacies of Ukrainian hospitality?
Trust me; getting lost in the multiple courses of a celebratory feast is kind of getting lost.
As you embark on your magical journey, may your sleigh be lighter, your reindeer faster, and your laughter warmer.
Enjoy a Ukrainian-style Christmas filled with rich traditions, joy, and a touch of winter anxiety.
Warmly,
Volodya
