Writer Fyodor Dostoevsky lived in my home town of Staraya Russa. He wrote about my hometown and its inhabitants.

13 years agoAwesome videos! Thanks for showing me :] I have heard of Nizhny Novgorod before. Is Staraya in this region?
Also, that fountain, is this a landmark in Staraya? I noticed its in all 3 videos :] Thanks again....really enjoyed ;-)
eAleksandr
13 years ago@Tara. Nizhny Novgorod and Novgorod (Veliky Novgorod) are two different cities that are located far from each other.
Staraya Russa, near Novgorod (near Veliky Novgorod, not to Nizhny Novgorod).
Many of the Russian did not know the difference between Novgorod and Nizhny Novgorod. :)
Above I gave an article from Wikipedia on Staraya Russa.
eAleksandr
13 years ago@Tara. Staraya Russa, Novgorod region, but not in the region of Nizhny Novgorod.
Tara
13 years agoahhh I see :] I compared both maps in wiki and Nizhny is further South East? Now (for 1 year) you are in Kursk Oblast region? Alot of places have 'Oblast' on the end of the names =D Does this have a significance/meaning?
eAleksandr
13 years ago@Tara. Have a look at photos of the town of Staraya Russa. There are also new pictures and old photos and the war.

Thank you for showing me this beautiful place ;-)
eAleksandr

Tara
13 years agowow...looks like he has made himself a nice home and life. Some people are happier living in the wild. I would live like that....as long as I have the internet and all my favorite programs =D This is very interesting. Yes, I thought that fountain was a landmark. I would love to see all of these in real life :]
Tara
13 years agoНичего себе ... похоже, что он сделал себе хороший дом и жизнь. Некоторые люди счастливее, живущих в дикой природе. Я бы так жить .... до тех пор, как я в Интернет и все мои любимые software =D Это очень интересно. Да, я думал, что фонтан был ориентир. Я хотел бы видеть все это в реальной жизни :]
eAleksandr
13 years ago@Tara. Этот фонтан сам бьёт из-под земли. Это фонтан лечебной минеральной воды. :)
This fountain is itself an effort from the ground. This fountain of mineral water.
Tara
13 years agoI think I read in wiki that Staraya is known for its Minerals....they have therapeutic properties? This is hard to explain =D You know how people bath in hot springs/mineral baths? Is this correct?
eAleksandr
13 years ago@Tara. In Staraya Russa, drink mineral water, breathing the vapors of mineral water and take baths in mud.
In Staraya Russa, a salt lakes, which are not covered by ice in winter.
Staraya (Старая) word translates into English as the Old. :)
Tara
13 years agoGreat!...thanks :]
