It is a little unusual, what attracts you most about it? I want to be the first person to play football on the moon do you know there are 3 golf balls left up there?

I used to teach some Russian kids and they were all really cool and friendly, and ever since then I decided I wanted to go visit to see what it is like

Some people are still stuck in that Cold War mentality, that's all the funny looks are Billy They perhaps don't quite realise that Russia's not communist and threatening to blow the west to shit any more. Looks like a fabulous place though, I'd love to go to either Siberia (purely for the experience), somewhere bordering the Taiga Forest (5000 miles to choose from!) or to Moscow to see the Tsar Bell, Tsar Cannon, Tsar Tank etc

Better brush up on my Russian then, I'm pretty sure my Japanese would be useless there, so for possibly the Kamchatka region!

do you know any Russian then? I used to know a few select phrases (I like my languages and tend to metaphorically get about a bit~), but the only ones I can remember off the top of my head are 'niet', 'babushka' and 'baloysha'. So I can say no to a granny and demand to have a bun!

I'll have a look at my photo photos, and see if i can take a photo of them with my phone (lack of scanner in my household ) and then upload them. They're not brilliant though, so don't expect much.
