RUSSIA:
Although money can be an issue, and going to distant places can be a broken dream before you start dreaming, I would anyway love to visit Russia. Because of many reasons, but mostly, because it is such a varied and colourful country.
Russia has an incredible population, they are 142.5 million people according to the statistics given by the UN in 2007. The number might seem scary, but I don't worry over it! Density is low because of the country’s enormous size, in fact, its geography is composed of more than 17 million square kilometres!
This huge land is the home of one of the most multi-ethnic nations in the world, and it is considered to be the world’s most diverse society – there are as many as 160 ethnic groups living there, i.e. 160 ways of viewing life, asian people, europeans, people from the arctic, etc!, and just the thought of all the traditions, costumes, and folclore they have, makes me crave for visiting ASAP!
Another of the reasons I would like to see Russia, it's its multi-lingualism, I mean, being honest; with that ammount of square kilometres and ethnicities, you could not expect any less.
There are more than 100 tongues spoken in all the country, and even though Russian is the official language, one can always learn a word or two in an incomprehensible, new-for-us language! furthermore, I find particularly interesting the fact that when writing, the Russians use the Cyrilic Alphabet, and simply, no-one can say it is not a whole world to discover.
Apart from the above mentioned, I have a real interest in taking a tour around the geography, and have a good time travelling Asia and Europe, but even more, I would just love to take a culinary tour, can you imagine the ammount of strange dishes one can find among all those ethnicities?
So far, I have had the chance of eating a couple of traditional russian dishes, they have both been very stimulating and a bit unknown for me, and since I have loved them, I am looking forward to eating them again in situ, and also, have a bite of everything I can, and I am sure that when money gets to be a friend, I will be sending you postcards from there.
See you in Russia!!!

Russia It's a cool country. If Chile had qualified for the World Cup the last year I would had gone to Russia for see the matches. It's very sad.
ResponderEliminarRussia is one of the countries that I would like to go. The history of the country, the different places to visit, Russia should be a great place to be a tourist. I have seen videos about Russia and my interest increase.

One of my friends went to Russia like two months ago or so, she took a lot of beautiful and colorful pictures, it's a beautiful country, I hope you can visit it some day.
ResponderEliminarWhat a great country! Obviously Moscú seems like a really incredible place to visit, but also I'd like to visit the Siberian forest's in west Russia. I think that place should be amazing.
ResponderEliminarDefinitely Rusia it`s a perfect country to visit. I think that the language is very difficult, but learn all the languages of all the ethnicities, wow! is insane, but I like the idea of try learn more of their native culture.

ResponderEliminarRussia is a beautiful country with an exquisite culture. After reading this post, so complete and with so much information, all I want is to know more about Russia's history and to visit it one day
ResponderEliminarI remember that as a child i always wanted to visit Russia because i looked at it on thw world map and saw it huge!
ResponderEliminarSince I was a child and I've started to learn more about history, I've always wanted to go there because I didn't understand (and I don't by now) how they could have a revolution so radical and huge in so few years.
ResponderEliminar100 tongues are really interesting thing. I had no idea about it.
ResponderEliminarI'm so intrigued to try russian gastronomy!! :O
