Who was Polycrates and why is his golden ring so famous? What were the words of Leonidas to Xerxes before the Battle of Thermopylae? What did Diogenes reply to Alexander the Great? All these questions and stories are remnants of a reality that we were not able to live. They are tales that seem far away but that, in the end, show what human nature hides. Many centuries have passed since Homer wrote his famous Iliad and Odyssey, or since Rome invaded Syracuse. But the heart of a man remains the same. And that is why anyone can find a part of themselves in these stories.

The broad streets of Vienna and the bustling port of Odesa, a small dying village somewhere in central Ukraine, a dusty boot camp where tents stand in a semi-circle under the scorching sun, lacquered school hallways and narrow dormitory rooms - what is the overlap here? Can a person live multiple disconnected lives, in multiple places, but remain one and the same? What does it really mean to fall under the category of 'third country citizen'? This work is a collection of memories, glimpses into the strange, complex life of a lonely teen immigrant. The stories of loss and gain explore the dichotomies of love and hate for people and places; of belonging while being disconnected and not belonging while sharing; of holding onto things one should move on from and pushing away what should be embraced.
