Well, we’ll see. There’s the older generation, and there’s the new one. It happens. And yes, I was trying to... Why am I telling all this? Because we really need to grow. And it’s great, you know, when in your city they build a modern playground for your kids, right? And the old one, the one with tires buried in sand that your kids used to jump on, gets demolished and removed — that’s a good thing. Of course, some people find it unfamiliar, uncomfortable, the old, familiar things are torn down, and something new is built, but it has to be done that way. I did it like that too and tried, you know, in a social sense... So, if we’re talking specifically about the place, as a mystical place — it’s unique. I don’t know what kind of valuable minerals are under me in Karelia. It’s a unique place, with unique nature. I love Karelia. I love it very much. I could spend my whole life there, and I wouldn’t need to go anywhere, not to any big country, or city. Seriously. It’s not by chance that the system showed me the whole world, and I traveled. And it’s not by chance that it gave me both money and taste, so I could bring everything into order in a modern way. And I started creating, in this Karelia, you know, like separate worlds. Because of the times we’re living in now, with the pandemic, the military operation, not even all my friends were there, I didn’t even manage to show it to anyone, and the construction is still ongoing. But the fact itself. So, for example, the Finnish farm, I’m restoring it completely. I need to make sure all the molding on the facade is restored, and I want everything to be ethnic and true to its original purpose, just as it was. I’m doing it all in Scandinavian European style. The tourist base, on the other hand, I made more ethnic, boho. Like I described, like those forest cabins that are popular in the United States and Europe, where there’s a hammock, a dreamcatcher, a stove — I did it in that style. So, I took what was already there but just adapted it. As for the military base, it’s supposed to be an estate, an English-style estate with a hipped roof. That’s the kind of tall roof with those windows, I forgot what it’s called, where there’s that stone above the windows, the windows should be the ones with the grid, there should be a garage for the car, a guest house, and of course, the exterior should be stone cladding, a fireplace, and definitely a library or a cigar room. You see, I’m turning all of this into different social worlds. And the place itself, it’s unique, yes... All of these buildings, the military ones, just so you understand, are all on separate large territories. Separate objects. They’re all in different places.
