Very neat and thoughtful reflections. I hope I'm able to visit some day!

It is so interesting to read how a foreigner sees your country, but actually, I have never been to Odessa. I hope your depression wasn't because of your trip to Ukraine. Reading your article, I am even more sad that I will never see Odessa. That theater building is much more beautiful than the Peterburg Mariinsky Theater. And the people you describe are so kind. And culture! Love it.

Thanks Donna! I must admit I didn't expect anyone to listen to a random Russian playlist, so thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
