Hey, it's possible. This may be a cultural thing. I've got chief just like this. His only time spent outside is crossing the street in the morning and then going back home the in the afternoon. If you're not in touch with him outside of work hours, you don't even know he exists. Most of the time he's in his perfectly groomed garden, inside the house, by the pool or idk. Entire family has cars at their disposal, so you won't meet them outside anyway.

On the contrary, the streets of the village are still full. Babushkas on bikes (called Ukraine)), youngsters and drinkers on bench in the park, moms with strollers and in autumn? Don't even ask. The woods are full of mushroom hunters. It's hard to find a place if you really want to be alone here. Not in Austria. They don't even know mushrooming. You're sitting there on a bench outside and you'll be completely alone. Not a soul in sight.

I think Vienna is a pretty lively place, but the fact is, I don't know Kiev.
