Olga Boiko - All About The Everything Croissant

Hello, and welcome back.
Introducing - Olga Boiko; she is the co-owner of two coffee shops in the mission appropriately called Coffee Shop.
I first read about Olga and her cafes in May 2022 when Mission Local ran a story about the fundraisers Olga and her Coffee Shops were promoting to help aid Ukraine as they had been invaded by Russia.
Yes, Olga is originally from Ukraine, and as we know, Russia invaded Ukraine in February 2022. (most recent invasion)
I mean, Putin what a joke. 
Though she isn’t a bartender, or in the bar business she’s in the business of serving the public and dealing with a lot of people who are probably freaking out because they haven’t had their caffeine yet. So Olga gets the biz, for sure.
I wanted to hear first hand what someone goes through living so far away from their family with war back home. At the time of the Mission Local article back in May 22, Olga and a lot of Ukrainians hoped the war would be over soon. Unfortunately it’s not looking like it.
