— We are visiting 5 cities, we started with Chernihiv, then there were Sumy, Kharkiv, now we are in Mykolaiv, tomorrow we have Odesa. It's like an expedition, a conversation with locals, but our main focus is on the local stories of the cities we visit. We rewarded the most active participants with books by a Ukrainian historian, his surname is Plokhii, — said Roman Chykharivskyy.
