“I was on set and the director shows me this screenshot. I went crazy, to be honest. For me, it’s kind of an oxymoron: where am I, where is journalism and where is the honored journalist from Ukraine? For me, journalism is the people who do it 10, 20, 30 years, have been studying all their lives and deserve this title. But I’m just a guy with a camera. I have a feeling that I don’t even deserve this award, but I’m very happy, “said Ptushkin.
The travel blogger has yet to collect his award as he has very little free time in his busy schedule.
“By the way, I didn’t take my award. Somehow I don’t have time … But there is insider information that, in addition to the pension increase, there is a ‘mace’ to get a free ride on the subway, so maybe really it may be very convenient, “he said.
