“Here, when we found the apartment, I was so happy.

“Friends helped us to come here, to rent the Airbnb apartment for the first two weeks and we had to borrow money. We also help my grandma and we tell all of our friends that if you will need any financial help we will gladly help you because for us $100 or $200 now is one trip to the store and for them it’s one or two weeks of living,” Sushko said.
