Hi from Ukraine

[yaroslaw]

Welcome from central North Carolina, U.S. We're all just learning to pronounce Kiev/Kiyv the Ukranian way, so I hope I spelled it right. Much good info and discussion here.

Ah, shame on me.
Should've written it.

Kyiv is the right way!

Welcome aboard! What are you smoking?

I loved Latakias and nice "honey" Virginias. It was something like 6 years ago, so know my preferences might change, but so far in a week Virginias and English blends still speak to me I need to visit my friend, I remember he had nice tobaccos (and he was the one that introduced me to pipes).

Hello from Austin, Texas

Hard times, new job, switched to rolling. Then for several years quitting and returning, smoking aroma cigs, e-cigs on and off. Just understood that I really like tobacco taste (which ecigs do not provide) so a healthier and tastier alternative to rolling is really a pipe.

Pipe bigotry, but I think cigarettes are first about nicotine, but pipes can be flavor first if nicotine at all.

Oh, cool! I live now in the woods (near North Cemetery, 30km from Kyiv) but was commuting a lot through Nivki for quite a few years

Nice to see fellow pipe smoker from my home city
