April Fools day is widely celebrated in Ukraine – people here love playing little pranks on each other! But Odessa takes it to a next level – the city is known as a “capital of humour” in Ukraine.

Fearing the actions of Superman are left unchecked, Batman takes on the man of steel, while the world wrestles with what kind of a hero it really needs.

International Women’s Day is a national holiday in Ukraine. The origins of its celebration go back to Soviet times. March 8th became an official holiday in 1965 in USSR, Ukraine has kept in since.

Originally it was a holiday promoting equality and freedom for all women. But, in late Soviet Union, it evolved into some sort of Mother’s Day, but not only for mothers — grandmothers, daughters, sisters too! It doesn’t have the political message anymore and celebrates just the beauty, love and kindness of Ukrainian women.
