Iryna from Minsk

About me I'm a 100% T-shaped person: I can't stick to one thing for a long-long time, I need to explore a few different things in parallel, and preferably right now. Currently, I'm working as a data scientist in an IT company and I really enjoy it! The world is full of data that needs to be explored.

ECOkit Minsk

Soulful zero-waste shop

""ECOkit" in Minsk is a shop in an ex-factory with eco-friendly products. You can just smell the nature here. Ask Mira, a true artist, about anything here!"

Are you trying to stick to an eco-friendly lifestyle as I do? Or are you on your way to doing it? Anyway, come check this place to learn that being eco-friendlier is nice and easy!

This is a cozy art studio in an atmospheric ex-factory where you can learn more about how to save our planet and buy things that will help you become more eco-friendly.

Also, you can always enjoy the atmosphere of the place and the smell of nature, cause a lot of products here are made of natural materials.

One more important thing that makes this place really special is its owner. You can meet her in the show - she is working there by herself. Most of the products of the ECOkit brand are made by Mira - she is a true artist. Since she knows the process from beginning to end, she can explain every step and answer any question, or just have a pleasant conversation with you.

ECOlit is a wonderful place to buy souvenirs for friends and family, cause it's unique, handmade and absolutely safe from an ecological perspective.
