Snowy Mother & Daughter Photo session in Grodno, Belarus.

I can say that 2020 was definitely the craziest year so far. So, when I got a chance to visit my troubled motherland in 2021 I haven't hesitated much. I haven’t been to Belarus for more than five years. I don't know how many facts you know about this country. But I should say that Belarus in 2020 is not the same country as it was even in 2019. A lot of things have changed and a lot of Belarussian people wish to change more. Belarus in 2020 and 2021 is mainly about the people. About beautiful, peaceful, courageous, pure, and fearless people. About their self-recognition as a nation.

This post is about some of them.

Below is our little adventure with Lena and Dana on the street of the old Belarussian city of Grodno. It’s so easy to get lost in the beauty of those charming streets. It is unique, filled with history and a special atmosphere little town that I call my home.

Hope you will enjoy the photos as much as I do.
