Russian Countryside - Going North and Exploring
Road trip! Nearly 200 miles north of Yekaterinburg . . .
I just came across this delightful video, where someone took a beautiful road trip a couple hundred miles north of Yekaterinburg, to the charming village of Verkhoturye.
Russia is so immense that I have to go online to see some parts of it. I have not yet visited this village myself. It is is approximately 1650 kilometers (1025 miles) from my house, which is not exactly next door.
I love how nice the highways are in that part of the country, where the cars frequently travel around around 80 miles per hour. One of my favorite parts of the video is where they meet with a villager, Douglas Borisovich, who shows them his beautiful village garden, well tended and taken care of.
Enjoy the video!
Hi Fr. Joe,
I am a new subscriber... Do you have a direct private email address? I have an issue with the extension of my current Russian Visa and would value your suggestions.
