In this episode, we speak to Maryna, a Ukrainian woman whose life was indelibly changed on February 24, 2022, when Russian forces invaded her hometown of Kharviv, in the east of the country. Though she happened to be outside of the country on holiday when the war initially broke out, she’s since become one of the 8M+ Ukrainians who are displaced around the world.
Far from her previous life as a professor of pharmacy at the National University of Kharkiv, she traveled through Hungary before finding refuge in Poland’s capital of Warsaw in the early days of the conflict. Today, she works in hospitality at Tent member company, Marriott. She speaks to Tent about the challenges she has faced, her job at Marriott, and hopes for the future.
