Hey everyone! I hope you are fine and safe. I apologize for such a long lack of any activity, but the recent events have hit me very strongly. Also on a very personal level. As you may know, my wife is from Tatarstan has a Russian passport, we have a family in Russia. Friends from Ukraine... It's hard to believe what's happening. I do not know what to say. It is unimaginable what is happening in Ukraine... When 8 years ago I started working and creating my world of 1920+ I wanted to share my passion for history, my love for the countryside and wild nature, fear of war, maybe build interest and awareness about difficult period in the history of my country and Europe. So that people do not forget and not repeat the same mistakes over and over again ... In my darkest dreams, I didn't expect that in 2022, my vision would become so real and will painfully begin to resemble reality. I don't know what to say everything sounds banal and pointless... A few hundred kilometers from our borders world looks more like the year 1939 than 2022.

We have to support Ukraine and its heroic fight, because now Ukraine is fighting not only for its own freedom, but for the freedom and peace of the whole of Europe! My heart and full support is with the Ukrainian people, and the Russian people who did not want this war.
