Yelysei is from Merefa, Kharkiv region. When the invasion began, he was only 8 years old. The boy remembers how they went down to the cold basement both during the day and in the middle of the night. And how scary it was. He travelled to Lithuania with his grandmother, and he liked it there. Now he lives in Ukraine again. The boy likes to draw with a 3-D pen and walk in the park.
