My name is Halyna Bukliv, I am a woman, mother, wife, friend and entrepreneur.
I was born in Ukraine in 1971, but I have lived in Italy since 2000.
Just moved to Italy, I found myself alone, in a country whose language I didn't know and with two children to raise. I could say that I managed to overcome that period thanks to my determination and fortitude but the truth is that I was able to count on the typically Italian welcome and warmth.
In Arsoli, a small town on the border between Lazio and Abruzzo, I was welcomed by a community and above all by a lady who for me has become a second mother and a grandmother for my children. Amelia's mother it was a pillar, my point of reference, supported and supported me, gave me confidence and security. She was my first home! Because as they say, our real home is not a place but the people we love.
My Italian life began from that village and my first friendships developed that still endure today. Friends who continue to support me with their warmth and that I carry in my heart every day.
