After the long awaited meetting with all my family I came to stay with my cuz Chris. This guy is working hard all his life and now things are lining up in his life. The only obstacle is that he sometimes does not see it as it happens. We met in Germany and from then on, I made a promise to return to see him or else drag him out to wherever I am. Chris is serious and contemplative, he plays the piano at night. I can feel his thoughts as the notes light up the night sky. We all desire roughly the same things as men. We just have to go and get it and not look back or look down…
It was amazing hanging out with Chris and his friends in Warsaw. Since I love this guy like a brother and we understand each other instantly, its easy to interact in a social setting. Although the people made a lasting impression on me at this event, my camera happened to have fallen on the old architecture of the buildings. As soon as my eyes connected with the details of the buildings I was taken back 14 years to Ukraine. The same buildings with the same mailboxes and the same… same… same… it felt like time travel.

Hallway of an old Warsaw apartment building. This Soviet design reminds me of my friends house in Ukraine.
Riding through the streets of Warsaw is always nice. Even better when Chris drives…
