I asked one of my friend to sent me pictures of Odessa and here they are. I love my old city, and I miss it so much. I just hope that all those children who were adopted from Odessa would not forget it either.
Absolutely beautiful pictures and city. I hope you will be able to go back before you graduate from college. Maybe you'll do a semester abroad there or in Moscow or St. Petersburg.
hey stasia! i love these pictures! it's so beautiful there!
i'm doing well-busy with school, as usual! i'm so glad you're liking soccer! i want to come watch a game sometime soon! maybe when i get my license, and the weather is warer! i'd totally love to! :)
