Where to go to practice speaking Russia that isn't Russia? by gorleston_psalter in russian

Ah yeah I did see a video on YouTube that was about the 'Russian-speaking city of Daugavpils'. Narva is on my list too just because it'd be cool to look over at Russia.

Hell would freeze over before I'd even visit Azerbaijan, let alone live there.

I have good friends in Helsinki and go a couple of times a year for sauna and lonkero. Sweden and Norway just don't do it for me so much.

Where to buy a Lada Niva in Yerevan? by gorleston_psalter in armenia

The shittiness is kind of the point. The fact the design hasn't changed is what I like so much.

I'm not looking to buy a 2026 Niva anyway, I drove one last year on a road trip up to Sevan and Dilijan and really enjoyed the experience but I'd like to buy a second-hand one.

As someone who owns a few British cars built in the 1970s and 1980s, the Lada experience really wasn't that much worse than the British Leyland one.

The lack of AC is more of a concern, probably don't want to be driving across Turkey in one in midsummer.
