Russia

By far the biggest country in the World! The Russian Federation

I actually didn´t know to much about Russia. Yes of course, Lenin, Stalin, Udssr, Moscow, Putin etc. this are all words which I can say something about it. But I didn´t know much about the life inside the country.

We spent April 2019 in Russia, discovering only a small part of the country.
