Multicultural Russia

Last Thursday evening |I was invitied to a celebration of Spring arriving. Funny now the ground is yet again covered with snow and the temperature is - 4
However, the event was on a boat / restaurant on the Volga. I was invited by students from Kostroma university who have links with former USSR states and countries , such as Azerbajan, Kazakistan and Armenia. The hospitality was tremendous , food , wine, singing, dancing, including a Russian choir singing about Kostroma. I had a great night and realised how diverse this culture really is. and lets be honest I was in the minority. being the only Enlgishman in Kostroma!
Thank you very much!
