Mum would’ve been 74 today, but instead stays forever young. I am much older than her already.

In the first photo she is a student, enjoying her time at the uni with friends and taking lovely and silly pics, as many of us have done.

The second is a shot taken in one of those numerous photo-booths: it’s 1981, Sochi, and she is slightly tanned already. I do remember our trip with her and Dad: that was one of my happiest memories.
