I visited Kharkov in October of 2007. I can not imagine my visit without Irina. She was absolutely wonderful. She is so much more than just a great Interpreter. She helped me with my shopping, showed me around the city, and helped me evaluate the sincerity of the women on my dates. Her assistance was invaluable. I will definitely use Irina when I come back again!

Update: I returned to Kharkov in January of 2008 to visit a girl I met on my previous trip. With Irina's help, our relationship blossomed, and now we are engaged! I returned again in May of 2008, and Irina made my visit trouble-free!

Thank you so much Irina for all your help!

Irina is a Kharkov jewel. Her abilities with translation / interpretation are remarkable, but she is capable of far more than that. In fact, Irina was more personal assistant than interpreter, helping me with dining, entertainment, travel, and all other needs during my stay in Kharkov. I hold her in the highest regard and strongly recommend using her services.

I met Irina through her web-site and eventually used her services when circumstances changed during my recent visit to Kharkov. Not only is she an excellent interpreter, she is also an all-around professional provider of services for the tourist. Irina is extremely knowledgeable of her city, country and culture and she is adept at virtually everything pertaining to Ukraine.

In addition to the aforementioned, I was able to take advantage of her services which included guiding me throughout her city, assisting me with shopping and taking photographs. She even ordered my favorite pizza and had it delivered to my apartment. I would highly recommend Irina's work to any and all as she is extremely service-oriented; obviously gleaned from the many years having traveled around the world and experiencing many cultures. Her familiarity with foreigners is illustrated in her ability to understand the mindset of clients; listening carefully while meeting their needs, which sets her far above and beyond all competition.

Thank you, Irina for your caring, conscientious and extremely competent services!

Irina, you're a marvel. Visiting Ukraine for the first time I was skeptical about the obstacles I'd encounter due to the communication barriers , but Irina was my right arm. As previous testimonials reflect, her abilities go much further than her marvelous language expertise, because her interpreting skills apart, she will be your friend, your guide, your organizer, and a very good listener. It was a pleasure just to have her around...and even when she wasn't, she was in regular contact by phone. There are surely very few better at her job than Irina - Kharkov's hidden gem.
