Tomorrow I must get up early. I ketch the train at ten o’clock for the long ride to Batumi, on the Black Sea. Batumi is in Georgia but only a little over an hours drive from Sochi. Kind of a poor man’s Sochi. It’s especially inexpensive for me because I am staying the off season when a lot of apartments are vacant.
A big shout out to the people who follow me. Unfortunately I’ve had to leave Russia. It became impossible to receive any funds from the US. I am currently living in Batumi, Georgia.
This is my family in the living room of my apartment in Kimovsk, Russia. I am a disabled Vietnam veteran. Seventy six years of age. My son Aleksandr (left), and my granddaughter Dasha (center) look in on me. Here, I had hoped to live out my retirement years.
