baltic (left of tallinn)
this is the farthest away from home i have ever been. at least the farthest from any idea of home i've ever had. and aljona in her hot pink coat took me to the shore of the baltic sea. she pointed the lights in the distance and said that was finland.
there is something strangely dazzling about slowly crossing the hard packed sand of a beach far away and looking off not to imagine but to see yet another distant land shimmering on the horizon.
and we had ukrainian soup for dinner overlooking the brightest sky there was to see in this first of few white nights this time around.
