[Spoken: Interviewer & Sergei Petrove]
Um, Sergei, we're out here in Salt Lake City. You just turned eighteen today. You're out here homeless, tell me about it. Yeah, I just came out of the wilderness, a place called Second Nature in Duschene desert, and, my mom basically said, "Once you turn eighteen, you're on your own". So I'm here, about Salt Lake, finding a place to stay for the night or find my way back to California. So, you're originally from California? Yes, I am. And, basically, you're stranded herе? Yeah. And how long have you been out on the streets? This is my first day, today's my еighteenth birthday. Today's your eighteenth birthday Yes. And you're out here homeless? Yes. Oh my gosh, I-I-I don't know what to say. Um, do you have any idea where you're headed? Just trying to get back, or goals? I'm trying to get back to California, that's my main goal right now. And then once I get there, I hope to finish high school, and... If you had three wishes, what would they be? Um...that my father still was alive, um, to see my sisters, and to get home. Thank you very much for talking to me. Thank you.
