Anna Vasilyeva (last name changed at the request of the heroine) lived all her life in Moscow. After the start of a full-scale war with Ukraine, Anna left for Bali, and from there to South Africa, where she no longer wants to leave, despite the remnants of apartheid and the high crime rate. Anna told Kholod about why she and her husband are afraid to walk the streets after sunset, but don’t want to leave - and what South Africa has that outweighs its shortcomings.
