This week, I want to tell you about cvmaker (https://cvmkr.com). Remember Resume Builder? It’s like that but on steroids. The best part? You don’t have to use any workarounds to remove advertisements from your résumé. Great, huh? This week, I wanted to tell you about CCleaner (http://www.piriform.com/CCLEANER). It’s a great program that runs on both […]
Today I began to say goodbye. I’ve mused before about haircuts in Ukraine. It was a simple post that boiled down to, I have a great woman who cuts my hair here because she knows what I want without me having to jump through hoops in Russian to explain it. I walk in, sit down, […]

The past couple of months, I haven’t felt like I’m in my top shape. This caused me to go to see the doctor which in turn caused me to get an ultrasound to check for tumors (the doctor wanted to rule out possibilities). What it boiled down to was that I had slept on an […]
During training, a line from the great Dos Equis advertisements played over and over in my head, “He speaks French, in Russian.” I had studied French in high school and college and every time I wanted to speak in a foreign language, I’d speak in French when I should have spoken Russian.
