I moved to the UK a year ago after fleeing the war in Ukraine. My family are still back in Ukraine, and it’s been difficult trying to fully adjust to life here. I try not to read the news too much, instead I try to keep calm and take things as slow as possible. It’s hard though.
I’m currently living with a host family, but I’m due to move out at the end of August. I’m working full-time at the moment, but what I’m earning isn’t enough for me to afford my own place. I’ve got experience working in architecture, and I’d love to find work as an interior designer or architectural assistant! I've been doing all sorts of arts and crafts ever since I was young, and I'd love to continue my career in this field and work for an international organisation.
