How a Russian Estonian found her homeland through Norway. The fate of Irina Hassel is very unusual. She was born in Nerva, a Russian city in Estonia. She married and had two children, but her relationship with her husband began to deteriorate. To reset, the couple decided to build a house, but the situation only got worse. Then they decided to move to another country. The choice fell on neighboring Norway. But even there it was not possible to improve the relationship - a year later the couple divorced. But in Norway Irina found her happiness. She married a Norwegian, who owned a car repair shop, and life was in full swing. They lived together for 12.5 years, but, as Irina said, "according to the events, life would have lasted 25 years." However, five years ago, Irina's husband suddenly died right in her arms. And the question arose: what to do next, what to do with the repair of the car and the workers of Norway (she did not hire visitors as a matter of principle). But even here Irina coped with everything, although for her kindness and the breadth of her Russian soul she got from her employees not what she expected. Meanwhile, Irina's parents from Estonia moved to Pskov. After coming to visit them, she realized that this is where her homeland is, because she is "one thousand percent Russian". As a result, I sold the business and everything that was left in Norway and moved to Pskov. I started writing stories, maintaining a personal blog and found work at the ancient temple of the Great Martyr George the Victorious of Vesuvius. In this 15th century church we met. Irina talked about all the zigzags of her difficult fate and shared her most intimate things. Check out: VK Rutube Facebook* * Meta Platforms Inc.
