Sofiia Surai

My name is Sofiia Surai. I graduated from Poltava V. G. Korolenko National Pedagogical University with a degree in Cultural Studies and Museology. For many years, I have studied Ukrainian customs, ancient rituals, and festive traditions because I have always believed that history lives not only in textbooks but also in our everyday culture. For over ten years, I have been writing about holidays and everything that helps us feel a connection to our roots. In my articles, I explore origins, meanings behind rituals, folk and church restrictions, and important signs and beliefs associated with each date. I also share warm greetings, practical advice, and atmospheric details that help create a festive mood.
