Roxanna is an awesome host. On our last visit to Chicago my husband and I arrived on the first day of a big snowstorm to visit our children and grandson. He’s just become a toddler and she suggested we borrow her snow sled to take him out in the snow. I’ll never forget how much he loved it, laughing and totally refusing to get out of the sled.
Her apartment makes you feel that you’re really in the Ukrainian Village. Beautiful paintings, sculptures, painted eggs and embroidered curtains and tablecloths grace the walls and windows. There is an intriguingly large library with a wide range of books. The bed is comfortable, the kitchen and bathroom are old-fashioned, but work very well. There are many places to plug in your electronics and the WiFi is fast.
I look forward to returning!
