Sergey is from Krivoy Rog. He has distant relatives in Ukraine. He is the strongest person in social house for homless called Teremok (Russian for "little hut"), and one of the few who receive pension. Money runs out quickly and there is never enough to buy cigarettes. Sergey laments the fact that the volunteers bring too little tobacco. When I visited Teremok the other time, I was told Sergey had left. “I was in Simferopol, then I called a friend. He said: ‘If you don’t want to go to the monastery, you can live with the volunteers.’ There are priests in the monastery, and all the stuff. You can’t smoke, you must work every day. But I want to recover, or just to rest.”
