I have a dream. To live somewhere for at least half an year, put my clothes in the wardrobe, storage my suitcases to the basement, buy something unnecessary that would take up too much space in my luggage. And that’s no problem, because we do not go anywhere. But it’s just a dream. In fact, […]
On the way
It means also to love, when somebody is scratching you
