About the Book
This is a story of hospitable people and unhospitable land. Story about proud men and shy women. About street art and street junkies. About hard work and constant intoxication.
About exotic and ordinary.
Everyday moments of a nation defining itself and building one of the newest countries in the world, despite all odds.
