Hey there! It's unusually warm in Moscow in the end of January. Even at nights it's +3-4C. So can you imagine the amount of water and dirt on the roads? It's not good along with the influentia epidemic which is getting only stronger. We're at dacha now but this situation will go on within the nearest week. Meanwhile we had Stadik and the family visiting us on Sunday. It was very nice and warm having them and eating grilled fish stakes! Love and hugs to all my nearest:))

Hey there. Here we are in Moscow. It's really snowy and cold here. After Vietnam it's a big contrast. I'm sneezing and have some problems with my sore throat, even after one week in Moscow, Hope it goes away soon. Meanwhile we've been to the "Jesus Christ Superstar" 1000th performance at Mossoveta theatre. It was really great and we liked it! Love and hugs to all my nearest and dearest!

Hey there, here we are in Vinpearl Phu Couch island, 400km from Cho Chi Minh city. We have stayed here for 12 brilliant days! The weather was so good and sunny, the sea -warm and clear, the sand - white and soft. We have been to Safati (opened December 24) and to boat fishing around small coral islands in southern Phu Couch. It's like paradise for   Kids here, too as there is a big Amusement park near the hotel. Buy to all my nearest and dearest.

Hey there, here we are in Ho Chi Ming city on our way to Phu Quoc island. It is close to the Indian Ocean so we hope the weather will be fine. Merry Christmas from Rex hotel in Ho Chi Minh, where we met Ho Anh,  Stanislav's ex post graduate student. She lives in Vietnam, in Ho Chi Minh city. We had a nica party at Rex hotel with Ahn. Love and hugs to you:) http://youtu.be/-gYFQdX5SxA

It was a great day today - December 20. Alexandr Smirnow invited us to see the film "Warrior of spirit" shown in the Fakel movie theatre in Moscow. The film was made with Sasha's involvement and active participation. Well done, it's a film about Saint Joseph Vyritsky, who struggled against the split of Russian Orthodox Church in 16th century. Thank you, Sasha.

Hey there, I've just got back from Krasnodar after visiting KRC on Kalinina street.

I even made a pic with one of them! Love and hugs from me!

Hey there, Here I am at Novosibirsk on December 3. It's a very beautiful place at Academgorodok, where the new NSU is located. It's fabulous but half empty as it has just been built. I saw CPE exam with the local teachers. It was good and the CEM and supervisor, Tatiana Savilova, were nice. I saw Tatiana at EF Novosibitsk some time ago and she recognized me. It was a pleasure! Now back to Moscow! Love and hugs to all:)
