So, some dudes decided to visit Russia with locals... And that video shows what happened! Drinking, tracktors, dancing and temples in the middle of the white light! Enjoy!

One of the most inconsistent and contradictory legacies of the Soviet era are the mosaics. The cold and severe beauty of these socialist-futuristic... objects, well, find a better word for it, confronts with the cruelty and doldrums of totalitarian regime. Pure hope and labour ethics of these semi-forfeited mosaics shows us the many-sided tragedy of the Soviets.

So, what about some russian art and short stories about it? We think, that we can show you some museums of countrytowns, some clubs, abandoned churches, postmodern central squares and quiet, dazzlingly beautiful in their sleep Russian villages.

In the meantime you can enjoy the wintriness. And new video about our trip is coming soon!

The name is derived from the ancient Slavic word "pir", meaning "feast". In former times, the dough for Russian pirogi was made predominantly of rye flour. Later it was mixed with wheat flour. In Russia pies are not just food — it is an ancient tradition connected with tea drinking and talking

Pirogi are characterised as "the most popular and important dish" and "truly national goods" of Russian cuisine, "ubiquitous in Russian life". Come with us, we will cook our own pirogi with cherry!

Hurry up, we wait for you to join us!

Hey, nice to see you again! Today we will tell you about one of our adventures!

Okay, so. In 1688–1693, Russian Tsar Peter the Great built his "fun flotilla" on Lake Pleshcheyevo for his own amusement, including the so-called Peter's little boat, which would be considered the forefather of the victorious Russian fleet. The Botik (small boat) museum chronicles the history of the first Russian fleet and keeps one of the original model boats. We'll see and maybe even touch it's board!

You still can join us, there are some places, write us a couple of words!

Good times everyone! It was an awesome excursion around the Basmanny district, thank you for your company and good mood! It was cool, we suppose, to know about all this nobility stuff, pre-revolutionary intrigues and some fresh and interesting things about Peter The Great, Alexander Pushkin and Mikhail Lermontov.

Nowadays, crawlong through the Novaya Basmannaya street we cannot imagine all these things from the past. Paola Gabriela, Elliot Jueves Lvr-plv and Cyrille La Quenelle, you're the best!
