I fell in love... with Warsaw. I've lived here for years, and never imagined that ordinary people are shaping this city. That's why I joined the Association Miasto Jest Nasze as a volunteer podcaster. It's a great opportunity to be among those who want to make a difference. And, since I'm a foreigner, guess who I'm going to talk to? That's right: foreigners in Warsaw. :)

In this episode of Warszawiacy Wszystkich Krajów, Valeria Ruditser speaks with Sasha Avdevich, the founder of Inclusive Barista — a Warsaw café that combines social entrepreneurship, accessibility, and multiculturalism. Recorded in English directly at Inclusive Barista, the conversation explores Sasha’s journey from leaving Belarus for political reasons to rebuilding life in Poland, as well as the café’s mission to create employment opportunities for people with disabilities and migrants.

In the first episode of Warszawiacy Wszystkich Krajów, Valeria Ruditser talks to Tôn Vân Anh, journalist, translator, social activist, and author of Xin chào! Vietnam for the Curious, about the Vietnamese community in Warsaw, life between cultures, integration, language, stereotypes, and how perceptions of people of Vietnamese origin in Poland have changed over time. The conversation opens a new podcast series exploring how migrants, local initiatives, and multicultural communities co-create the identity of modern Warsaw.

In the latest episode of Warsaw Pulse, Valeria Ruditser speaks with Oksana Pestrykova from the Ukrainian House in Warsaw about integration, everyday challenges, disinformation, and how to build a more open and supportive city for all residents.
