Orenburg

Sun School

The third business in two years.

We opened Sun School — a franchise kindergarten. Before the opening there was a long renovation and buying everything we needed: furniture, equipment, toys. When the kindergarten finally opened, it became clear this was no longer just another business — this year took me out of employment for good.

That same summer we went to Turkey as a family.

And Natalia and I also got away to Egypt — without the kids, just to rest. We met a local guide there who took us to the best places, arranged dinner by the sea, and drove us on quad bikes. One of those vacations you remember for a long time.
