Orest Zub is a well known Ukrainian traveler, blogger and online entrepreneur who has visited 120+ countries and built a worldwide audience as a true digital nomad. However when Russia invaded Ukraine, Orest came back home and decided to put his skillset to use for the greater good of his country. His new mission is to spread the word about the events in Ukraine from a local perspective and ensure the world remains aware that real people are living through one of the greatest military invasions in recent history, right here in Europe. Orest walks us through his personal story, the current state of the day to day in Ukraine, and some of the historical context about Ukraine and their relationship with Russia.
