„There are global situations when you have to have both of your children on the same continent.“
„In March 2022, after the outbreak of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and after almost two years of fighting the covid pandemic, alternately closed schools and borders, I, like others, did not know what would happen what I should expect from that global situation for my family, for my closest, for all, I was afraid of the Russian army moving to other European countries of the Eastern bloc, I was worried of the possible use of nuclear weapons from Russian side, I couldn’t believe that in the 21st century it was possible to get so close to war, sit in a car and ask myself „What we would do if …?“ My older son has been studying in the United States since January 2022, and as a mother I felt a strong need to have both of my children on the same continent under these global contiditions. So I took my younger son and left to the United States — began the journey for love, which was also a kind of mental leak from the information from media about the war, a journey where we could breathe, a kind of searching for peace in the self — mother’s road movie towards love, unconventional unplanned vacations for my son, the journey on which we both have grown, discourse of peace.“
