Today we celebrate the Day of the Defender of Fatherland in Russia. It is a day when we usually celebrate our men: fathers, husbands, sons, grandfathers and so on! Somehow we always associate this celebration with men only, but there are so many women who defend our state as well!
⠀
The history of this celebration dates back to 1922 when the 4th anniversary of the creation of the Red Army was commemorated. So, originally, 23rd of February is the day when the Red Army was started. With the time flying by the purpose of the celebration changed over and over again and now it is dedicated to all people who are somehow connected to the defence of the state: men and military women.
⠀
Official research shows that 61 % of men in Russia served in the army which makes them defenders automatically.
⠀
❓Why do we congratulate all men?
⭐️ Because there is no need to serve in the army to be a defender. Our heroes and defenders are on the streets: a father who protects his family, a husband who protects his wife, a son who is still to young but already is eager to protect his mum. Isn’t it enough to be called “a defender”?
⠀
Nowadays this day is celebrated in 5 countries:
🇷🇺 Russia
🇧🇾 Belarus
🇰🇬 Kyrgyzstan
🇹🇲 Turkmenistan
🇹🇯 Tajikistan
⠀
In Russia and in Belarus this day is a federal holiday and is a day off!
⠀
Typical gifts for our defenders I will show in stories😀
I would like to congratulate all men and military women with this day! Be happy!
Do you have similar celebrations?

Happy International Tour Guide Day! ❤️❤️❤️
What does it mean being a guide for me? I guess it is, like in this picture, looking at everything with fascinated eyes and, what is more important, making my guests looking at the city like that!
I love when people fall in love with Saint Petersburg and always want to come back because this city is worth seeing more than once!
⠀
I hope the world will come back to normal soon and you all will be able to see “the miracle” in Saint Petersburg😍😍😍
Always yours,
Tour guide Anastasia

“A winter miracle” - this is how we call amazing snowy days in Russia. This winter is exceptionally beautiful! I guess we haven’t seen so much snow for at least 5 years now! Thanks to snow + the sun combination every tree and every bush turns into a masterpiece😍
There is only one “but”: it is - 25C🥶🥶🥶
Do you love snowy days?
