I’m Coming Home

After four months in Russia, it’s time to go home to Utah.

Tula

Jordan and I took a short day trip to Tula, Russia, to see the Tula Arms Plant.

Have you ever wanted to know how to make borsch? Now, you can.

The equivalent of Russian chocolate truffles.

That awkward moment when you are freezing outdoors while waiting for the Russian monk to get off their dial-up internet.

The things I’m going to miss about life in Russia.

A quick visit to St. Petersburg before rushing off to Finland.

A drunken Russian man nearly threw up on me on the metro, so there’s that.

Just some thoughts about having to eat Russian river fish, teaching, and some cool Russian parks.

Sometimes, teaching is rewarding. Other times, it’s having your students shove their hands in a toilet.
