Friends, hi.
In this video, I don’t give a guide on how to move abroad. Instead, I want to share a very personal story of how my wife and I left Russia, moved to Georgia, then to Serbia, and eventually found ourselves in France.
This is not about visas or paperwork — though there were plenty — but about the emotional side of emigration. About fatigue, fear, beauty, uncertainty, and discovery.
I share my experience and observations, and I’d be truly glad if any part of this story resonates with you.
If you have questions or if something feels familiar — write in the comments, I’ll be happy to reply.
And if you’re nearby, maybe we’ll meet for coffee.
Thank you for watching.
And if this kind of honest storytelling means something to you — feel free to subscribe.
