Introduction to Myself – Iaroslav (Serg) Pyrozhok

Hello, my name is Iaroslav (majorly known as Serg), and I am a Ukrainian who Migrated to Canada in 2013, a couple of months prior to the Maidan (21st November 2013), and the Hybrid war Between Russia and Ukraine (began 20th February, 2014). My parents guessed that something negative and major was about to occur, so we decided to move out. I have moved around the country for a bit, until eventually coming to British Columbia, a beautiful, and life-full province. I am a competitive Water polo Player, as well as a Royal Canadian Sea Cadet; these two after school activities have shaped me into becoming a better, more endurable, respectful, and responsible person. I also used to play a musical instrument: the trumpet, which I used in both the School and Cadet Bands. This year I set a goal for myself to try a new musical instrument, for example, the Accordion, as it is not only challenging, but also ties in with my culture a lot, as even my grandma used to play one and still owns hers’ from a long time ago. I hope this post gave you a little bit of context to my life, and I hope I will also learn about you all as well.
