Trip from Kiev to here was little complicated. 4am pickup to get to the airport. Made me carry my oversized backpack to the plane then took it away from me. Then on arrival in Simferopol bus to train station to try to get first class ticket for overnight to Odessa in a few days. No luck. Then had to find which bus to Feodosia. Was going to take a minibus, but the driver disappeared after I got in the van. Found the bus. Switched busses halfway here. Arrived. Another bus into town with my landlord. Longish walk with backpack to apartment.
He tells me that if anyone gives me a hard time to talk to them in English, which is good since I don't speak Russian.
He spent the day showing me around town then later we went clubbing. Quite the party nightlife here. The rest of the time it's just a sleepy little beach community.
Every now and then I get this feeling that I'm standing somewhere that my grandparents were at a hundred years ago. Sort of the reason I'm here. Makes me wistful.
