Sarah Riley: It’s actually attention-grabbing as a result of in my time working with plenty of totally different companies, enterprise house owners like your self, serving to them arrange and, and undergo that entire course of, all of the steps which are wanted to set the enterprise up. I’ve at all times talked to them about what’s been your greatest problem to date.

But it surely completely wonderful that you just nonetheless persevered. You continued regardless. You had your dream. You knew what you wished for your loved ones, and also you’ve carried on. And I believe it’s, you’ve raised a very good level there about {that a} nation does want to advertise itself and to take a look at the optimistic aspect of what it does. And to say that we, we will’t simply be outlined by what’s happening in a single a part of our nation.
Sarah Riley: We do must proceed with enterprise as regular. That’s how the economic system continues. That’s how folks proceed to take pleasure in, , time and their lives. And that’s vital as effectively. I do know this, it’s horrible what’s happening with the conflict. however that’s not what we’re right here to speak about. I wished to speak to you as a result of you have got a really massive household, don’t you You may have a household of 5, proper In order that should have been a problem in itself, however what, what was that a part of the rationale that you just wished to set, arrange your corporation is due to your youngsters
Ulyana: effectively, to start with, the, the, the yr we launched, the marketing campaign and the conflict began, I simply gave delivery to my third, daughter . So she was really two months outdated after we began. and yeah, this can be a large household. that is, effectively, we now have my husband. We don’t name it a enterprise, proper We name it a dream. And that’s really what it’s. And I believe that is how, the way it began, and that’s why we type of hold going it it doesn’t matter what, as a result of we initially determined that we’ll be versatile with this choice, and prefer it’s simply two of us with no further investments. We’ve got, each full-time jobs as a result of we all know that this venture, isn’t but on the stage we shall be totally capable of, depart our jobs. however in any case, sure, that is type of a dream come true, as a result of we imagine that, tenting enterprise and really being exterior our doorways is a therapeutic a part of, our every day routine.
Ulyana: we, we met with my husband, as we had been within the scouting, group. It’s like, in Ukraine, it’s referred to as, referred to as Plat. It’s a really type of, it’s a nationwide vast group, but it surely additionally promotes this, like dwelling in nature, having the ability to cope, in any scenario, being, having the ability to dwell in a, in a tent and make a fireplace and in addition all this sort of bonding collectively and, and, and be a pleasant individual, et cetera. So that is type of like the place it began, but additionally my mother and father, had been each an alpinist and, we had been additionally raised as a children that we had been normally having our greatest time exterior. So we had been biking, we had been going to mountains, we had been mountaineering, we had been snowboarding. And that is the life, life method that we share with our youngsters.
Ulyana: So in addition they go to the ski faculty, and we normally go to ski. They’ve bikes and, as as, as they develop up, with all of the applied sciences and all of the, , on-line world, it’s essential for us as a mother and father to point out them that there’s lots of world exterior of o on-line. and I do know that there’s a time that they, they are going to follow cartoons and we’d like that silent time too. But additionally I do take pleasure in, the thought than after we are out. Like they’re busy on a regular basis. They’ve their sticks, , I don’t know. They’re, they’re soiled, however they’re comfortable and so they’re drained. and when, after we had been youthful and there have been no children, we normally traveled with my husband, overseas as, as I’m saying, there should not a lot campings, in Ukraine.
Ulyana: And we type of found, for us that, there’s lots of consolation which you can have, dwelling in a tent exterior with lots of infrastructure, however having the identical thought that you just’re out, proper and, and for us it was type of, thoughts blowing, like, oh, okay, so you may, you may have a relaxation with the consolation, not identical to, , with no rest room to go to, and , like, that is what the primary one thought got here, in order that’s good. and, and that’s type of prolonged the boundaries as a result of normally when, younger mother and father have children, they want like extra of consolation. They journey with extra baggage and extra issues they want type of extra, however that’s, that’s the best way of grownup pondering that their children want extra. that’s not the case. Youngsters don’t want extra.
Ulyana: They want like garments to alter. They want water to, to scrub their fingers, however they want comfortable mother and father as effectively. And that’s after we, we determined, okay, so we will journey with children. it’s not that simple to hike with them as a result of you should, to hold them on besides of the backpack. However, however you may journey as a result of you have got, you have got a spot the place you may take a bathe when you may, prepare dinner meals, not simply on hearth, but additionally use a fireplace. And that’s after we understood that for us, it’s even simpler to journey and keep in tenting or, some type of services than in motels. As a result of in resort you have got this all type of, you have got lots of stuff, you should test in and take a look at. And that’s, that’s the lengthy course of. After which while you go into your room, it’s normally a small room.
Ulyana: After which it’s so tough to get these children out as a result of they’ve consolation, they’ve a TV and it’s cetera. And it’s all about, a protracted interval that you just’re inside. and we’re type of mother and father after we normally have a protracted journey only for the weekend, and we kinda have lots of spots to go to, however we now have like two days. So time, time is, , is vital for us. And that’s when the thought got here is like, Hey, having relaxation with children exterior is the most suitable choice you may give to them. And type of, we discover it very, emotionally vital for us to be exterior. particularly as I discussed, these days we now have lots of stress, proper work deadlines, budgets, conflict, proper and this, yr, this summer season proved for us good that you just want a spot to go to the place you type of a bit swap off. There was a interval throughout this, this yr after we had been like always on-line and simply sweeping the newsfeeds since you type of must know what’s occurring. However while you go to the mountains, there’s some, some, in some unspecified time in the future you type of let it go , proper As a result of, , you have got a solar, you have got a nature, you have got a, you place the place sleep and, and that is the, the, an important place while you type of really feel protected, proper In all type of meanings.
Sarah Riley: Completely. And, and in addition you’re switching off, aren’t you And you make reminiscences on your youngsters the identical method as your mother and father helped. You may have these wonderful reminiscences of being out in nature, and you’re serving to them have the identical, so that they’re, they’re not simply listening to the detrimental information on a regular basis. They’re really having these wonderful reminiscences and seeing that their mother and father are persevering with to dwell life and to try to, , persevere and be robust. And I believe exhibiting by instance is at all times so, so vital. And so these are actually unbelievable causes that you just simply charged forward regardless, it, I can’t fairly imagine that you just did with the quantity of kids and all the different challenges you’ve had. However inform me a little bit bit about your corporation. What’s your corporation is, what have you ever arrange to date
Ulyana: Okay, in order that’s really, a small pitch, 100 kilometers from, a giant metropolis, which is town of . this can be a native, heart, within the western, a part of Ukraine. the, the web page, we really discovered the web page by way of web , which is unusual sufficient, however we noticed the picture, we’d come to the web page and we’ve seen the, the view and the surroundings, and it was like, unbelievable. We thought, okay, in order that’s it. No matter we do right here, that’s the view we, we wanna have. and that’s really has the view for the, mountain, which is known as Parashah, which is likely one of the, highest mountains in our area. It’s not the very best in Ukraine, but it surely’s, it’s fairly excessive. so the situation is, is fairly engaging as a result of we now have a pleasant waterfall close by, which is like 5 kilometers, a pleasant simple stroll with children.
Ulyana: you may go mountaineering for that, for that mountain, which is an extended and a tougher, journey. But additionally if, if adults or possibly some teenager, extra grownup children, it’s potential. and in addition we now have some rocks, and good woods round. And we now have a small river operating simply, close to the seaside, which is known as Small River. And in Ukraine it’s Maka. And that’s how our tenting is known as Maka, as a result of we wished to, to stay to the situation. It was vital for us. we now have an incredible neighborhood cuz we’re positioned close to village. and our major thought was type of to draw the people who dwell in that village, to present them work and type of share our imaginative and prescient of that enterprise, and have them imagine in that. as a result of most of individuals, they work within the close by, larger cities.
Ulyana: they’re not a lot farmers anymore in small villages. they normally, have possibly not a lot cattle, so like one cow and few chickens. and we wanna type of promote them to not go for work for giant cities, and so they spend like two hours drive or three hours drive, to town, however have one thing regionally. and all of the workers that works with us are native folks. our directors are two boys, and like 20 yr outdated , however they’re wonderful. They, they love what they do. they’re serving to us round. and really, the people who constructed, the, the constructing we now have, on web site are locals. and that was a greatest, alternative and greatest thought as a result of they, they actually really feel prefer it’s, it’s, it’s theirs, proper So like, they, they belong to it. It’s not like they’re simply staff, however they really feel part of it.
Ulyana: And, that that is one thing I actually take pleasure in as a result of I see that they like working there and so they throw up concepts, methods to enhance one thing or what sh what ought to we construct subsequent in there or the place ought to we construct it We identical to, me and Andre simply saying like, okay, possibly we’ll do one thing there. Look forward to it, watch for it. We’ve got an thought, we’ll do it. No worries in any respect. and that’s, that’s wonderful. so the location is fairly small. we now have a safari tent. simply the tents, there are not any, precise cabins or buildings, possibly someday later, however for now it’s simply tent. we now have, two, two beds, a tent, and a few have an additional foldable mattress. and in addition the, the pitch is allowed which you can, carry your individual tent and simply keep.
Ulyana: we now have like, one large, constructing, which has a restaurant, and, and kitchen. and in addition, like self, self-service, kitchen, when you may prepare dinner, your self, there’s a range and there’s the massive fridge, a number of the kitchen you should utilize. there’s additionally showers with sizzling water, and, loos. So showers, female and male separate. Identical with loos. we now have some storage rooms and, like laundry, small laundry. in order that, that’s mainly it. So there’s like only one large, barn like construction. And largely, these are simply the tents. So a few of this large safari tents have, have the deck. So, as a result of the pitch is like, on the, on the hill, so it goes like, in, in ranges.
Sarah Riley: Yeah. So is that primarily to benefit from the views that you just’ve bought proper, as effectively Sure. Yeah. So inform me a little bit bit concerning the trade over there and, the, the client, I suppose the visitor. How is the trade now Is it rising Is it a brand new development Is it, has it been round for a very long time Inform me a little bit bit about that.
Ulyana: So, as I stated, the mar the market is admittedly simply rising. there’s no, not a lot, glamping sides. we had been, as we had been discovering, all of the objects which are right here in Ukraine, it’s like possibly 5 to seven, newly established glamping sides. They’ve like one or two seasons, the demand is, is nice. And, undoubtedly, since lots of our rising simply yr by yr, we had like a completely packed, pitch, throughout final summer season, which is wonderful as a result of we, we didn’t do any promoting on the time. we barely, switched all the pieces like the new water, simply June 1st. And we, our had our first visitor, we didn’t had an electrical energy but as a result of all of the forms you may think about, it’s a, it’s a tough, stuff, with out conflict happening.
Ulyana: However with conflict, we had a contract like for a yr, but it surely was, it was simply delayed. however we had photo voltaic, panels and a diesel generator. And virtually with that, we had been functioning that, that assist us with the electrical energy for, for fridges and, largely simply, for water. however that was just about sufficient. so yeah, I believe, individuals are actually concerned about that type of expertise. we had lots of query about, whether or not there’s any, chance to go along with the caravan. And I used to be fairly shocked as a result of undoubtedly in Ukraine it’s not a really, typically merchandise you may see caravans, they’re fairly costly, and there’s no a lot lodging for that. we do have a camper , surprisingly. Yeah, as a result of we’re a touring household. We do, we now have a, a, a caravan, and it’s really parked, on our web page, exterior the constructing.
Ulyana: And we dwell in it throughout the summer season. and, and we all know how, how, how broad the infrastructure is in, in UK for, for caravans and just like the, the entire household, raised raised in caravans throughout the summer season. And I believe one other, like a brand new rising market can be type of a pitch for, for caravans. it will be attention-grabbing as effectively. so yeah, as I stated, with no commercial is rather like phrase of the mouth. we bought, in some unspecified time in the future in, in July, we realized that we have to restrict variety of people who we wanna see on the pitch, simply to make sure we’re not overcrowded and nonetheless have this consolation. we now have a web site with, so we’ve requested that anybody who wanna come, even together with his personal, his her personal attend would want to e book.
Ulyana: And if, if we see at this level that we’re like, fairly packed, we are saying, sorry, you’d want to go to our subsequent week as a result of we, we’re, we’re packed. so yeah, I believe this can be a very trending, sphere. there’s lots of issues you may attempt on, lots of choices by way of, sleeping lodging, like tense and, bubbles, proper all this sort of stuff. in order that’s, as I stated, Japanese Europe is, can be a place the place they only began beginning to get, the velocity on. and there are not any, like large infrastructures, to date. in order that, that’s begin.
Sarah Riley: So is there anybody specific construction that you just assume is the preferred amongst company Or is that this simply such an rising market that folks shall be concerned about Something that’s a little bit bit totally different
Ulyana: I believe for now, you may, you may decide so the folks shall be shocked and . And I do know that there are lots of, like cabins, proper now that they’re like being launched from right here and there. However, however the cabin is a giant of funding, proper It’s a lot larger than having any, form of intent or infrastructure. but it surely’s tough to say if one thing is extra engaging than the opposite. I believe the entire thought of, glamping, tenting and out of doors, type of dwelling exterior the place sleepover exterior is so attention-grabbing and new that like, now that is the place the place you may decide, decide and it will be successful, the treehouses or, or no matter that. And
Sarah Riley: What, what about supplies although Are you discovering it wrestle to get the supplies that you just want for constructing And can you entry the tent constructions that you really want How, how does that work within the Ukraine in the intervening time
Ulyana: we largely, in our patriot, largely construct, construct all the pieces of wooden. so, and that is native wooden, as you’d think about, it’s not tough to, effectively, it’s, it’s a bit of pricy. I assumed it, it wouldn’t be less expensive. however the value of meals, for the final two years really raised lots. but additionally there are few firms in Ukraine that already can construct, you, tent. we now have the, like a wood construction, stable wood construction. They like, with the canvas. So there are already firms that, simply launched and so they can, they will construct you something. So I don’t assume there’s any downside with supplies.
Sarah Riley: It’s attention-grabbing, your, your feedback there concerning the wooden. that is one thing that we’ve had in every single place, that the fabric costs have gone up, loopy costs, , and actually some tasks have had their prices double, which is insane, actually. however sadly it’s an indication of the occasions in the intervening time. However you had been speaking there about your constructions and, and the way you laid out your web site. Do you, what sort of further, actions or leisure actions or leisure services do you present Do you present sizzling tubs Do you have got, streams and rivers the place folks can swim, , what occurs there Do you, do you set, playgrounds up or do you simply say it’s all pure, simply use the pure assets How, how do you do this
Ulyana: okay, so we now have lots of concepts as, as you think about, the conflict , stopped lots of it. undoubtedly when, after we launched, final yr, it was a giant of a wrestle as a result of at my finish, I had a extra good imaginative and prescient when, like, the purpose after we are prepared to ask company. however this was the query to barter, and we’re like, okay, so that is an mvp, proper We’re, we’ll run it only for checks, , we’ll say that, okay, we’re partially open, come and go to us. So, sure, there are lots of concepts that also must be, developed. for now we don’t have a lot on the pitch. And over the past summer season, all of it was like construction work right here and there. we now have some bikes, for finish. we do invite company to go for a stroll, to go for the waterfall or to the rocks.
Ulyana: We’ve got this small river simply, like two stairway steps, of our pitch, but additionally, a much bigger river, which is known as straight river when you may really swim. however that’s like extra of a 40 minutes, stroll. this yr shall be establishing a playground. we now have, like hammocks, alongside the, the web page. and like, like these type of chairs, you may, you may have a relaxation. And so, type of a hammock between a hammock and the chair, which is definitely like held on, on the, on, on the tree. so this sort of stuff, we now have backpacks, for hire, and particularly these the place you may keep on children, just like the backpack for the children. we now have an thought of some type of, extra, not a sizzling tub, however possibly a sauna, which is extra, extra to advertise when there’s a unhealthy climate.
Ulyana: in order that’s just about an thought for, for the, this yr and the following yr, no less than, a a after which we are going to see, we had been undoubtedly discussing the pool, however that then we thought that that is type of doesn’t meet, with our thought of a extra of a pure relaxation, proper As a result of with the pool, you should have lots of chemical compounds to get it clear. you, you want a, a machine for, shifting the water, the sound with the sound. And we thought, okay, there undoubtedly are loads of locations with a pleasant large pool the place folks simply wanna go for a pool, and possibly we wanna entice folks not only for the pool, however possibly for the, the entire expertise. possibly for a fireside, possibly for simply, operating round along with your canine. And effectively, one other level, there’s not a lot place, for now in Ukraine when you may go along with, with, along with your pets, particularly when you’ve got a much bigger dock, like a shepherd or one thing, or Labrador.
Ulyana: and, we had been actually shocked when lots of company got here with, with their canine, and we like, okay, lastly I’ve a spot the place to go for the weekend with my canine as a result of I, I, I don’t, I can’t have it within the resort. so yeah, so that might be only a place for chi to sit back, , and to take pleasure in your self. and possibly we’ll undoubtedly be evolving with some type of actions, for this yr. you’ll invite an individual to do some type of, masterclass, to, to make, one thing, with children. we now have a very nice summer season vacation, which is Ivana al. It’s type of a mixture of spiritual and earlier than the spiritual occasions, but it surely’s all about summer season. It’s all about making an enormous hearth. it’s all about, bonding with nature. we, we make, these, from, from grass, I, I don’t know the way it’s referred to as, like,
Sarah Riley: Like a grass crown or one thing, proper
Ulyana: Proper. So that you make this grass crown and, and the top of the night you, you set these, crowns, on the river and they need to, like swim off. So there’s lots of, conventional mixes in there, however that’s a very lovely vacation. And, I, I, I actually wished to make it final yr, however that was not time. However this yr I undoubtedly wanna present my children, this vacation as a result of that, that, that’s actually lovely. So undoubtedly all of the actions we thought that we’ll have on our pitch, had been, can be extra, nearer to nature. So possibly one thing doing along with your fingers, possibly some type of pottery. so not, not the same old, actions you have got on the, I don’t know, Commerce heart or one thing the place you go along with the children. So there’s lots of concepts that want lots of possibly investments, however we type of see it like, let’s take one step at a time. And if we now have people who visited us final yr and so they come this yr as effectively, that might be an enormous win for us. And in case you can shock them with no less than minor enhancements throughout, the time that we, they weren’t visiting us, that’s, that’s already a the purpose for us within the circumstances we that you just’re now.
Sarah Riley: Completely. And do you assume that individuals are prepared now to start out celebrating these common occasions that you’d usually have celebrated earlier than the conflict, however now, do you assume they’re prepared to start out rising from all of, I suppose a little bit of the trauma of all of it
Ulyana: That is such a tough query to reply concerning the level of celebration. And that is one thing, we’re struggling the, the, for the final yr, the entire yr, as a result of there’s no time for celebration, proper However on the different hand, there’s lots of traditions that we wanna hold and we wanna present our youngsters. And, the factor that we’re preventing for proper now, it having the ability to converse our language, to have our traditions, and to, train our youngsters the identical that we had been taught, proper So that is, we’re preventing for, that is our associates are dying proper now on the frontline. and , you may say that, effectively, we will, we will, , cease celebrating Easter or begin celebrating, some type of occasions for, okay, let’s say two years, 5 years. However my center daughter is 5 yr outdated, so for her, a two yr interval is half of her life.
Ulyana: I can’t cease her life for 2 years. And that is, that is the thought why really we hold going, proper We, we, we hold working, we hold having, our every day routines and every day traditions as a result of, due to our youngsters, as a result of they need to have a standard life. and at, at my opinion, , or what’s my excuse for that I might say, that I’m doing this for my children. I wished them to recollect this yr or that summer season, not by what occurred to us. They, they are going to undoubtedly keep in mind, they are going to be taught it in books, but additionally to have their reminiscences of their very own, that they’d an Easter and so they had a Christmas, and that they’ve lots of their nationwide holidays, they nonetheless hold having that in faculties and, in kindergartens, they be taught poems, proper as a result of that’s vital . That’s, that’s, that’s the life, they’re dwelling. And I believe that’s, if we perceive that it’s not a lot of celebration, however that’s warding off at custom, then that is vital and we have to follow it.
Sarah Riley: Yeah. And I believe that’s a very pretty method of explaining it. And I believe that what you’re doing with your corporation and the way you’ve set that up is wonderful since you are opening up the potential for different folks to do issues that imply that they’re creating, some degree of normality for his or her household and to create these lovely reminiscences, lifetime reminiscences which are so vital for his or her youngsters and everybody rising up. And as you stated, for the very younger ones, I imply, I’ve bought younger youngsters as effectively, and the identical factor, , a a few years go by and it’s lots of their life, isn’t it And it’s very formative. And to be closed down and to not be going anyplace and to not be realizing what it’s prefer to take pleasure in nature and luxuriate in being nurtured by nature is correct. Yeah. A a difficult one. And so the truth that you’re opening it as much as folks and, and permitting them to entry it, particularly with their pets as effectively, is admittedly unbelievable. And so, what’s your hopes and desires for your corporation for the following few years What are you hoping for What’s your imaginative and prescient
Ulyana: I believe the principle thought for us is type of, step-by-step enhancements. we’re studying like every single day. We’re, we’re not in, hospitality enterprise.
