The United States is a diverse country geographically and culturally. We have landscapes from mountains (Appalachians in the East to Rocky and Sierra Nevada in the West) We have a large grassland (mostly farming) called the Great Plains, and several deserts. We are sub-tropical in the far south  and temperate in the north. Our Government is a Federal Republic, meaning we have three levels of government; National, State and local. Each has specific powers, but all can unfortunately tax us. The US is a "melting pot" of cultures from other places. We have people of Ukrainian descent as well as Italian, Irish, French, German, Somali, Russian, Mexican and just about everyone else you can think of. My town has a large percentage of Russians, while Holyoke is a mix of Irish, Puerto Rican, Polish and French- Canadian.
We are in Western Massachusetts in the northeast corner, a region known as New England. Our capital is Boston, below

After University, I moved to Ukraine to work as a Peace Corps Volunteer. Peace Corps is an organiztion aimed at fostering world peace and friendship by connecting American volunteers with people who work in other countries.

Congratulations! My name is Sergei Yevsikov. I was born on February 11, 2003 (15 years old). Since I have been able to "understand others", I have always sought the ideal of my character, not commit evil deeds and always be fair. In my life there were many different situations that somehow influenced the formation of my character, but not always on the good side. Today, I am a student of the 10th grade, Ukrainian school. I am fond of everything I can. Spoiled for the question "What profession to choose?". At first glance, you might think that the main thing is to be profitable. But for me it is the principle of the desire of my soul. I like the legal sphere, the state system. There is a lot of injustice in the world and there is no such ideal to which we seem to aspire. But it's all the thoughts .. In my free time, I try to find myself in some kind of occupation, be it sport, reading or rest. At the moment, I do not speak English very much, but I want to study it. Participation in this project will give some experience-practice and it's great. Everyone has a good mood, and to the next dialogue.

Hey I’m Jesiah and I’m 16 years old. As you can see we’re all from Holyoke, Massachusetts. I’ve lived here my whole life. I’m Puerto Rican. We have some diversity that I value a lot. It's not my ideal place to live in but it's not that bad. Have you lived in Ukraine since you were born? My birthday is March 26th (Aries are the best). How old are you and when is your birthday? Going to school here at Holyoke High is okay not much happens (in my opinion). I don't play sports and I'm not a part of any clubs (yet). Do you play any sports or have any activities you like to do? I've always wanted to be in a band but I don't play any instruments it would be cool if any of you did. I have a lot of siblings, do you have any? If not do you wish you did or do you enjoy being an only child? I really like anime my favorites right now are Tokyo Ghoul and My Hero Academia. Are you interested in anime if so which would you recommend? I'm open to most genres of music. The music I mostly listen to is rock, k-pop (BTS, Dreamcatcher, LOONA), or pop. When I'm doing homework I like to listen to songs with a chill beat. Something I've been doing lately is sleeping to piano covers. What type of music do you like? Do you like instrumentals? What's something you do that others might find weird? If you have any songs you want to share with me you can even if they're not in English. I'm really looking forward to getting to know you guys. I hope we can learn a lot from each other
