***
Got lost and left at 2 a.m. lonely at the bus station in Krakow - that was the best exprience ever in making new friends
***
Our common friend from Moscow and I made an amazing thing for our best friend. He sent money, I bought and brought her a huge package of different fruit (about 14 kilos in hands) without telling her a word. Our "action" took more than a week of common effort. And it was so pleasant to see her smiles, full of surprise and happiness.

I saw the most beautiful sunset in the Carpathean Mountains last weekend (sunsets is my weak point ;)). I did awesome trips to Western Ukraine this year!
Teach, Learn, Share
It's really hard to concretisize what I want to teach / learn / share. I think I can easy share my world with others who want to discover it so if they do the same, it gonna be the most amazing teach/learn/share exchange :)
