Everything in life has an end. So has my Russian adventure. It happened sooner than I expected but due to several circumstances I decided to finish my internship earlier as it affected my mental and physical state too much. Russia is a very difficult place to live. And if you're a sensitive and emotional person,... Continue Reading →
Volga Memories
The weather outside has significantly worsened today, which always makes me feel a bit more nostalgic and thoughtful. Or maybe it's just the film I saw yesterday... 😉 Anyway I went back to my folder with all the photos I've taken so far while being here in Russia. I came across a set of photos from...

The sweetest delights of Russia
As soon as I decided to complain a little about the Internet companies in Ulyanovsk (shame on me), my boss received a message from one of them that they are able to connect everything today. Soo here it is! My Internet ;)) Time to get back on track and share more of my Russian impressions.... Continue Reading →
In the search of the Internet
For the couple of weeks I (and my boss) have been struggling to find any Internet provider for my flat. The most common answer we could hear is that they don't work in the area where I live. However, one answer just made my day. After several days of contacting one company, they have finally... Continue Reading →
A living history – at the dinosaurs museum ;)

Such conditions are not very encouraging to go out at night, walk through the city and get cold, especially if you're still waiting for this damned package with your... Continue Reading →
What do Russians know about Poland?
Recently, I've attended another meeting with people mostly from Russia. Of course, as always, I was quite a big attraction for them as it's not so common in Ulyanovsk that there's a foreigner living there. So we started a discussion about our countries. They asked me first what I know about Russia, we discussed different food,... Continue Reading →
1st Couchsurfing Meeting
Still somehow in the topic of unexpected situations 😉 Last weekend I had a chance to meeting with some members of Couchsurfing community. For those, who don't know what is Couchsurfing, here's a short description about this community and I'd recommend visit the website couchsurfing.org. "Couchsurfing began in 2004 as a small passion project by... Continue Reading →
Unexpected Visit
It's been a while since I've last signed in here and now it's been one month of me living in Ulyanovsk. It's not that easy neither hard. But some situations, they just kill me 😉 Like today in the morning... Just one word of explanations. About two weeks ago I moved to a different flat... Continue Reading →
