So after returning...

I definitely meant to appear here after my Georgian trip... Which was absolutely great and fantastic, and made me to fall in love with this country and everything, but after all what happened after my flight back to Moscow... Which is so terrible I can`t find the words...

I spent the last week comparing Russian and western news, listening to some radio (as no TV where I live), reading BBC and others - web sites in Russian, English and French which made me feel quite terrified about the news and also about the difference in the news. But generally I was just thinking about those who stayed in Georgia - in Tbilisi, in Gori - as I have visited both of the towns and perhaps saw those people on the streets... Perhaps some others who were flying with me to Tbilisi but stayed there a bit longer - they can`t return to Moscow now as all flights (and boats) to Russia stopped... Tbilisi is quite an international town now, with people from all over the world (mostly from US and EU), sure there are a lot of Russians there as well... I am really quite far away from any politics, they are doing thier ugly things and my position was always - just don`t think about them. The implemented scenario made me being involved in the story, but right now - I really don`t have anything to tell yet, still getting pieces of information and thinking.

Am thinking about those who has become involuntary and innocent participants of all that.

Georgia was just great for me...
