Regular trips to the self-settlers in 2013.

In 2013 trips to the self-settlers became a habit. Almost every month, from spring to fall, we visited Paryshiv, Opachychi and Kupuvate. We brought food, flour and sugar - and already knew who had asked for what last time and who would be waiting for us at the gate.

In spring the groundwater rises in Paryshiv. For the self-settlers it is a familiar thing, and we simply stayed in touch. But knowing that someone remembers you always matters - especially when your nearest neighbors live several kilometers away.
