AUGUST - SAINT P / MOSCOW / KAZAN

feel exhausted from this period. don't think i have ever changed cities so frequently - Petersburg, Moscow, train to Kaluga for Signal fest, back to Moscow, train to Kazan, flight back to Saint P. Home, cottage, sleeping in a cold tent with bugs, hostels and hotels.

📝 Note to self: never repeat such a packed schedule and always book hotels in advance. and definitely not on my own dime if dont want to go. that's the golden rule.

really enjoyed the festival, met a lot of cool people. had laptop detox for 4 days!!! music only started late in the evening, with lectures and walks with coffee during the day. sank into a deep depression this month. The sugar mommy role is definitely not for me, and I hate taking 100% responsibility. also felt crappy in Kazan at the nix sprint where there were no other women, and guys told me I couldnt stay at their house, so I had to find an overpriced hostel because all the hotels were unreasonably expensive!!! btw, my place turned out to be nice and right in the center, so I often walked to the park by black lake and had lovely girl roommates. so glad im heading home to saint p soon.
