Usual Picture On Russian Streets

One more of the snapshots you make in Russia walking around.
Here you see a Ferrari and some SUV (Mercedes M-Class?). Not the cheapest cars anyway.

As that money substitutes culture and good behavior the park directly on a zebra crossing.
And you see the both (one one is clear) guys at the wall, this are the bodygards from the cars. So even police would do anything against traffic offenders (what they don't do in Russia), which policemen is so brave to go over there and start a discussion with this pitbulls.

Russia, impossible is normal :)

Poka

About this blog

This blog is a close up on Russia and the CIS. I am not giving you the big picture.
I would anyway fail. I am too long here. So beauty & decay,
education & corruption, high culture & kafka-style administration are meanwhile normal for me.
So this blog is like a painting from from Roy Lichtenstein... when you are with your nose on it :) You will just see the dots, not gaining any understanding of the whole.

Most things will look strange in this blog. But you can be sure, I would not live here, if there would not be a lot of great things here. Unfortunately, the weired stories are more interesting to tell & read.
Don’t judge Russia on this blog, if you want to know the country, come over and take a look by your own.
