This warmed my heart today. My blog, Find Lost Russian & Ukrainian Family, has been my love for 14 years to share my genealogy journey and the free Russian & Ukrainian resources. Here are kind words about my blog from a Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial and Museum certified guide.

Here's my newest ethnicity breakdown from 23andme. My 7 great-grandparents were born in Russia and one great-grandmother was born in eastern Poland. Never thought I would be listed more as Ukrainian and Polish than Russian. May this boost interest in DNA testing so I can get better matches soon.

Just made it to 1,300 days on Duolingo. I am working on Czech now, which is a combination of Russian, Polish and Ukrainian. This will be my fourth and last Slavic language on Duolingo. I wish there were more Slavic languages on Duolingo.
