Went over to the Left Bank to visit our extended family, took these two quick photos with my iPhone (and the lovely Hipstamatic app):
We take it for granted, but the contrast between the gloomy bellies of our apartment blocks - podyezdy/paradnyye - and the cozy apartments that you escape to is just crazy...
That is very true, and I love the photo documentation!
I really love following your blog - I lived in Istanbul for a few years and just moved to Ukraine, so I love how you write about both countries. I find you through the Global Voices, but much prefer your personal blog! Looking forward to seeing what you post about the election, if you feel up to it
