For a few years he wandered in different areas of Greece and Turkey, while supporting himself with a variety of jobs such as painting icons and signs, designing theater sets and movie posters,and playing the piano. Bobritsky kept records of all his travels by constantly sketching his surroundings, and in 1921 earned his passage to the US by designing sets and costumes for a Russian ballet in Istanbul.
