I don't know why everyone considers me so brave? It's normal to interact and drink with locals when you travel abroad. I have never been one to just sit in a hotel or resort. I guess I'm a hardcore American. :) We are adventurous people also.

Yes, alone. It is normal for me, even in the States to be doing a lot of traveling and activities alone. Most of my friends are now married, with children, and no free time.

Все таки лучше не бухать, а делать вот так:

Где-то читал, что у мужчин хронический алкоголизм появляется через 10 лет употребления 1 бутылки пива 1 раз в месяц, а у женщин всего через 2 года. Связано с разницей в гормонах.

(шлёпает себя по лбу) ЧЕТЫРЕ сотки! В Сибири!

Potato yield is quite high.

In not too good conditions you may get about 0.5-1 tonne from 4 ares. More than enough just for consumption. In good conditions industrial-like farm will produce like 2-3 tonnes.

I do not know why there is so much news about America on Russian news channels. At my hotel in Yaroslavl, I was watching RT, the only English language channel and every story was something about the U.S. American news does not mention Russia hardly at all, only when tensions in Eastern Ukraine heat up, or there are peace discussions, like recently in Minsk. To speak about everyday, ordinary Russian life - never on American news.

Yes, I know this blogger and he has been very helpful. Unfortunately, he does not speak English so well and has a normal day job, like most people. So, most readers in the area are occupied during the weekday.

Вот интересно было бы не только "программу студентами по обмену", а еще и программу обмена президентами.

Обаму на годик в Кремль, "нашего всё" на его место, Порошенко в Германию, а Меркель - наводить порядок на Украине.

Хотя зря она замуж за Каддафи в своё время не вышла, я так надеялся ;-)

Даля вам обрежет все, что недообрезано. Она сделала после Литву чемпионкой Европы по обрезаниям после кризиса 2008 года. Даже моя ох-тельная пенсия в 200 евро в месяц была обрезана на 10%. И только в январе этого года возвращена. Но и зарплаты депутатов и всех госслужащих были обрезаны. Так что она - в самый раз, пожалуй будет для Украины

Нахер шпроты.

What an excellent title for a post about Russia :-). Wish you'd rather travel to Saint Petersburgh from Moscow, then you'd pass my town and I'd be happy to show you a lot of authentic russian lifestyle :-) called глубинка. Well, maybe some other time. Have a safe and interesting trip to Kazan.

I've already traveled from Moscow to St. Petersburg via car during my first trip to Russia, and been to both cities numerous times. Each journey, I'm trying to visit different cities and areas. About traditional Russian life, I saw plenty, because I stayed in a village in the Kostroma region for one day and night. It was the most heartwarming and interesting day of the trip. :) I will write that story later. Now I have time for only short posts.

[gella_key]

yep, after a day and a night in Russian village one can hardly be wanting more of this traditional life spending :-) Anyway, look forward to your impression of it!
