Your heart is in Ukraine. Ukraine has a population more than twice as big as Romania (44 mil vs 19 mil) yet the economy is smaller than Romania. Pretty remarkable. Don't be embarrassed to talk about Ukraine just because it is poor. It's your heritage man. Maybe with your Romanian wages you can purchase back family property in Hutsul land.
