In the new city, the boy managed to adapt to school, the landscapes, new friends, and dreams of travel. With the hope of obtaining foreign passports, they dream of seeing the world.
“Uman is a city that captivates with its color and beauty. However, my hometown Bakhmut will always remain in my heart, as a ruined but brave wartime brother”
User Damir had a hard fate but found support and understanding in the new city. Every step in the new environment is a challenge, but Damir is ready to walk this road, dreaming of a happy and safe life for himself and his family.
