I’m not really into tea, but when I walked into this tea shop in Kyiv, I was impressed. Just wanted to show you. In case someone still thinks Kyiv is stuck in Soviet or prehistoric times. 😉

I'd really like to visit Ukraine one day. The thought of all the suffering you are going through, and how far off that day seems right now, is agonizing. Thanks for the glimpses of a happy future.

Beautiful. Perfect song playing too: Heroes by David Bowie. "We can be heroes for ever and ever. What you say?"

My real life friend from Kyiv in the 90s put me right on how beautiful and up-to-date Kyiv was and is. I love good tea, as well as good coffee. Always loose tea with a teapot 😊 That looks like my sort of shop.

A lovely tea shop Yara! I enjoy going into our local T2 tea shops and sampling their tea and checking out their beautiful teapots and cups. They have a similar set up to the one shown in your video. 💙💛 ☕️🫖 🇳🇿🫂🇺🇦

Through your eyes I have learned how, especially Kyiv, is both historically beautiful and artistically modern. Every shop is so eye appealing and detailed. Every historic place, garden, or site has had thought and care given. I wish we could all visit.

Love a tea shop. I’m one of those strange Americans that doesn’t own a coffee maker, but has both stovetop kettle used daily and electric kettle for backup bc I drink so. much. tea. Thank you for showing us this loveliness! Every #warcoffee I’ve ever had with you in honor of Ukraine has been tea🫶🇺🇸🇺🇦

I don't drink coffee either - even the smell makes me physically sick. I am addicted to tea though, but then I'm English so that explains a lot!

My Slavic, Scottish, and English roots all run deep apparently, and they all scream, “tea’s on!”

As a former owner of a tea (coffee & chocolate) shop, I would say that looks pretty good.
