Welcome to Culture Mapping, we are Anastasia and Konstantin, entrepreneurs based in the UAE and culture enthusiasts eager to share unique paths our guests have taken.

In the third episode we sit down with Anastasia Kopijevski, an art manager, founder of Skaya Art, and mother of two multicultural children. Join us as we explore Anastasia's unique journey, from her pre- / post-Soviet upbringing in Estonia to her experiences in the US, which have shaped her into the remarkable individual she is today.

Anastasia shares with us the complexities of growing up in two countries, discussing the strong mix of influences that have contributed to her identity. We delve into her relationship with her Egyptian husband, discussing the challenges and joys of navigating a multicultural family and finding common ground in communication.

As an art manager, Anastasia provides insights into the vibrant art scene in the UAE and how her strong entrepreneurial skills, nurtured by her upbringing, have contributed to her success in business. Join us as we explore the intersections of culture, family, and entrepreneurship in Anastasia's life.
