looking for a Ukranian pen pal

[jess]

Hi - My name is jessica.
I am looking for a Ukranian pen pal. My grandparents are from Ukraine and I am trying to learn as much as I can about my *roots*. I eventually hope to learn the language. At the moment I am taking a class in the Russian language (logic: that if I learn Russian it will be an easier transition to Ukranian. It's easier to find someone to teach me Russian than Ukranian :-)

Hi Jessica. My name is Jason Kulyna. My grandparents are from the Ukraine as well. I'm also trying to find out more about my past. So far I've traced as far back as my great-great-great grandparents. Later

Hi! I am a Ukrainian. If you have any questions about history, geography or culture I would like to help you. I am very impressed with Jason Kulyna's findings. Jason would you like to share how did you do this? I've tried to find information about my family roots and I know how hard it is to find any information of this kind in Ukraine.
Looking forward to it!
