A new guest: Mark Sakharov and his family

Mark is 18, a student of the College of Culture and Arts — a positive and creative young man who inspires by example.

Mark was diagnosed with cerebral palsy at 1 year and 4 months. He's 18 now, a student at the Kobzon College of Culture and Arts. He has performed at the Governor's reception (singing and reciting poetry), takes part in olympiads and has won citywide and all-Russia contests. He leads an active life and runs his blog: https://vk.com/id674649848 Mark is endlessly positive and creative — singing, school theatre, masterclasses, drawing, excursions and videoblogging. We were thrilled to host such a strong, inspiring family. The trip in Sheregesh felt almost like home. ❤️ A note from his mother: "Huge thanks for the chance to rest and reset 🥰 to admire Sheregesh's mesmerising nature 🏔️ We visited the alpaca farm 🦙, Mark got rabbit-therapy 🐇. We strolled through sector E under the spring sun ☀️ Special thanks to Gulnara and Elizaveta for their hospitality ❤️ — pancakes and fragrant tea. People in Comfort is a magical place. Our family wholeheartedly thanks Natalia and Elena for your kind hearts 💗"
