Echoes of Odessa
Here are a few old photos from Odessa — a city I truly fell in love with during the first years of my travels.
I loved everything about it: the vibe, the streets, the beaches, the architecture, and the quiet magic hidden in everyday moments. No matter the weather, I walked. Every single day. Odessa had a way of pulling me outside, into its rhythm.
Many of those walks ended at Aroma Kava, where I’d sit with a cappuccino and a slice of cake,

The last time I left Odessa was in February 2022, through the airport.
Since then, nothing feels the same.
If the war had never happened, I know I would still be returning — again and again — to this city that once felt like a second home.
