Transsiberian Railway: November 28, 2007
http://theniznews.blogspot.com/2007/12/november-28-2007.html
An American wanders in Russia. Friday, December 14, 2007. November 28, 2007. So this morning I went into the kitchen and poured some cok into my cup. For some reason the jar and lid were really sticky, and the lid was more fool-proof than others I’ve seen. I realized after I had a good centimeter or more of cok in my cup that actually…it was honey. Oops! Not fair. So what did I do with my cup of honey? Even though I was more than ready to go home last week and the week before, now that I have four or fiv...

Transsiberian Railway: December 2007
http://theniznews.blogspot.com/2007_12_01_archive.html
An American wanders in Russia. Wednesday, December 19, 2007. So, due to a lack of technical prowess on my part, I'm posting links to my photos for your enjoyment rather than the video documentaries I filmed for your (okay, my) viewing pleasure. Friday, December 14, 2007. November 28, 2007. Eventually I realized that I wasn’t holding coffee, and I felt pretty stupid. But come on- first thing in the morning you spring honey on a girl in the guise of a coffee jar? I poured super hot water on it, and seeped ...

Transsiberian Railway: leaving on a jet plane

An American wanders in Russia. Wednesday, December 12, 2007. Leaving on a jet plane. Sorry I haven't updated in a while; internet access has been scare. I'll be back in the states soon- from there I'm going to post all the updates I've written but not gotten online, so you'll have lots of stories to read in the next week or so, I should think. I'll also post tons of pictures for you to look at. I'd love to hear from you once I get back to my home soil! So long for now! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Transsiberian Railway: August 2007
http://theniznews.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
An American wanders in Russia. Friday, August 31, 2007. It’s been an interesting first two days in Russia. The most obvious thing you observe is how the Russian manner is different from that of Americans. I mean, I was warned about this, but it’s so weird! No matter how much you want them to. We also visited the Church of the Spilt Blood, erected on the site where one of Russia’s emperors (Alexander the…2nd? My converter just popped while it was plugged in, and smoke is snaking out of it. I think it&...

Transsiberian Railway: October 2007

An American wanders in Russia. Monday, October 22, 2007. Wringing out jeans to dry. The Sunset over the Oka River. Andrew- need I say more? Kate, or Katya. She's super fun, and I love her. A window at the abandoned water place. Just a reminder that my 21st birthday is coming up this Saturday, the 27th! Just call me anastasia. My life has taken on a dramatic change in the last few days. I moved in with a Russian family. The food at home is delicious, the cat is fun, so I can’t complain. My famil...For wha...

An American wanders in Russia. Friday, December 14, 2007. December 1st, 2007. All the time that I’ve been here in Nizhnii I’ve wanted to take a day and visit all the churches. But I think that even if I had another day in this place it would be impossible. There are so many churches here! When the depression hit the U.S. back in the 1920’s, Henry Ford had to look for new markets for his automobile industry. And guess where he took 600 American workers to build and run a new car factory? I don’t wan...

An American wanders in Russia. Friday, December 14, 2007. December 11, 2007. But when the cashier rung me up the price was three times that of mixed berry- instead of the traditional $2 or $3, it was over $6. Huh. Are strawberries rare in Moscow this time of year? Weird So I paid, just because I was too tired to say, “Forget it, excuse me, I’d like mixed berry instead.”. 8221; But by the time I looked at the cook, contemplating a desperate yell of, “Stop! Please, mixed berry! I didn’t know! Leaving on a ...
