I’m going to tell you about the, um, trip, which I have been learning for for a long time, actually, it was a, um, trip to the capacity and mountains. Unfortunately, a few years ago, the war, um, broke in my country in Ukraine. And, um, that’s why I had to delay the street for bad times. The capacity mountains is the region which is situated in the western part of Ukraine needs the most big risk, starting tourist destination in my country, I believe so. Um, beautiful nature, beautiful scenery, lens capes attract people from all over the globe to see the beauty of Ukrainian nature in the capacity mountains. Um, I’ve been actually, I’ve never been to the capacity mountains. In my life, so I live in Ukraine. Um, so a new wonder I had been longing for that. Before the war as well. And I must say that, um, the reason it was delayed because the war started made me a bit, um, frustrated because, um, the war hasn’t just ruined my plans. It ruined the plans of people in my country. Um, what else can I say? I was going to travel there with a friend of mine and, unfortunately, be again, because of that horrible wolf, Uh, she moved to she as she she went to she went abroad as refugee. So, um, our plans were spoiled, and we didn’t go to the capacity mode. It’s anyhow, I believe that in the nearest future, as soon as the war starts, uh, sorry, stops, Uh, I will manage to do this. Definitely with a friend of mine.

I'm going to tell you about the trip, which I have been longing for for a long time. Actually, it was a trip to the Carpathian Mountains. Unfortunately, a few years ago, the war broke out in my country, Ukraine. And that's why I had to delay the trip for bad times. The Carpathian Mountains is a region situated in the western part of Ukraine and is the most picturesque tourist destination in my country, I believe. Beautiful nature, stunning scenery, and landscapes attract people from all over the globe to see the beauty of Ukrainian nature in the Carpathian Mountains. I've never been to the Carpathian Mountains in my life, even though I live in Ukraine. So, it was a journey I had been longing for. Before the war as well. And I must say that the reason it was delayed was because the war started, which made me a bit frustrated because it not only ruined my plans but also the plans of people in my country. I was going to travel there with a friend of mine, but unfortunately, because of that horrible war, she had to move abroad as a refugee. So, our plans were spoiled, and we didn't go to the Carpathian Mountains. Anyhow, I believe that in the nearest future, as soon as the war stops, I will manage to do this trip, definitely with a friend of mine.
