A Child in Russia
We all know that each country or region around the world lives a little bit differently than us in the United States. Since we are studying Russia now in College Geo, I decided to see what life was like for children in Russia. I found a really cool site that actually has a write-up from a Russian resident named Trevor. Trevor talks all about Russia from the clothes, food, and living conditions, all the way to his favorite things to do for free time. One thing that I found to be interesting was Trevor's favorite foods. One of them was in his mind a pastry, and it consisted of pastry bread with meat on the inside.-Yuck! One other thing that was neat was the fact that Trevor mentioned that in Russia they live and dress a lot like us in the United States. After reading Trevor's life in Russia summary, I would have to say there are some similarities. Go check out the site to find out how you would be living your life right now growing up as a kid in Russia. Russian Life

I think this website is a great resource for showing us the culture of a Russian and it breaks it down to one person to make it a little more personal. Overall, I think I got a good impression as well in the life of a Russian from the video that we watched last week in College Geo. Like Nate said we really do have it lucky when you see a video that shows you life in Russia after a post-communist rule. Considering the video was made in 1994, Russia really lacks the modern look that most countries have today. I don't know if all of Russia is like this, but the parts of Russia that we saw really do look like they are behind in the times. The hotel, houses, and supermarkets aren't up to speed in facility quality that we are used too.
