My friend ian_green takes many trips to the north up to the White Sea where there is a little village. He posts many photos of rivers, lakes, bays and the ocean. I never knew Russia was so beautiful until I came to Live Journal in 2005.
I think because your air is much cleaner than the US you have more colorful sunsets. Our air is so polluted that some days in the summer we are warned not to go outdoors if we have breathing problems. We have polluted the air and water.
Alas, where there are people out there very quickly becomes dirty. Unfortunately, many people in Russia are very casually refer to their land. It hurts me to look at this indifference. But we are still very weak civil society, self-discipline and culture.
Ian and a couple of other Russian friends who love the woods also dislikes places where there are many people. I could never live in a city again; there are too many people, too many cars and too much noise. Plus the city lights wipe out the stars and moon. It is not for me. I am happy living on a country backroad which has more traffic than I like.
