He does seem a gentle giant. It’s very sad. How sweet that people are embracing him and caring for him. Can you imagine giving up your job because you have no shoes? And had to walk through snow in socks?
What an amazing story!
He’s made the news here. Interesting.
Melanie: It was OUR pleasure.
kibbe, ann, riverrat: It really is an amazing story… One of the stations here did a special on him about a year ago — fascinating to see his village! Actually much like where Kolya’s family lives.
