Changes

Living in Russia and England has given me great opportunities to travel. I have been to (and on usually a tight budget) France, Italy, Egypt, Sweden, Greece, Scotland, Wales, Denmark, Finland, Estonia, Turkey, and Ukraine. As an Orthodox pilgrim, I have visited Holy Trinity-Saint Sergius Lavra, Saint Alexander Nevsky Lavra, Optina Monastery, Mount Athos, and the Kiev Caves Lavra in addition many other lesser known communities in Russia and Greece. In America, I have been to 3 of Father Ephraim's communities in Florida and Texas, Saint Herman of Alaska Monastery, Holy Transfiguration Monastery in Boston, Christ of the Hills Monastery, and Glorious Ascension Monastery.
