Does anyone else out there have parents who came from
Ukraine, became American citizens, and then raised their
children in Ukrainian schools in America? I went to an
"American" high school in a suburb but before this lived
in a few cities where I went to Ukrainian school (with
Ukrainian classes that continued at a church even when I
went to high school, and dance classes, etc.). At the time
that I was growing up, all of this seemed like a burden to
me, but now I realized that speaking another language
was an asset, as was my entire cultural education. If
this has happened to you and you'd like to correspond with
me, please leave your email address. Thanks! Xristya

Sorry Honcho, Looking for Ukraine-speaking pen pals

Sorry Honcho (you replied to my post), because your experience wasn't really like mine - I'm looking for
Ukrainian-speaking Americans (and actually others in any
other countries) because since both my parents have died
and I don't often see my brother who can still speak
Ukrainian (the other one has chosen not to do so), I would
like pen pals who will also help me continue with Ukrainian. Thanks for your response, though!
