Home Means To Me

Home means to me: Home is where you are born; Home means Love, safety, family, and childhood. Home is where you go to have confort everyday after school and after work. My home is Ukraine. I love Ukraine, most of my family still lives in Ukraine, I miss having Ukrainian food all of the time, and I was born in Ukraine, it will always be my home. In Ukraine every week all my family and my cousins and uncles met at our house and it was so much fun. I have a really big family, I have 52 cousins, 4 uncles and 12 aunts on my mother’s side. On my father’s side I have 2 uncles and 4 cousins. In Ukraine I miss a lot of food but the most I miss is: Borscht and perogies. My mom makes them the best. She can make them in here but they won't taste as good as in Ukraine. In Ukraine there are other ingredients for Borscht and Perogies that you can't get in Canada. I was born in Ukraine. In Ukraine I had everything. In Ukraine I had my friends, everybody spoke in Ukrainian, and here everybody speaks in English. I was born in Ukraine, home is where you are born!!
