What’s amazing about this is the communal spirit, love and acceptance among people. It’s the warmth of humanity that others around the world need to see. Leahovcenco aims to tell the world about their lives, struggles, resilience and perhaps, this would help many to reflect on what’s really important in this world.

A behind the scenes look at my trip to Chukotka, Russia. I was traveling around Chukotka starting with Anadyr (capital of Chukotka) and into the very deep Tundra where nobody lives except small tribal groups of reindeer herders, staying and photographing them in their everyday life, and it was a life changing experience. – Sasha Leahovcenco
