How Russians actually live in winter // Izhevsk, Russia

Ever wondered how Russians actually live in winter? In this video I walk around Izhevsk (the motherland of Kalashnikov) in the Udmurt Republic, Russia on a cold winter day. You'll see provincial Russia with its Orthodox churches, typical Russian (or Soviet) neighbourhoods with tall appartment blocks, lots of snow removal equipments and legendary Russian public transport (btw, have you ever heard of a trolleybus?). I hope that this video will bring you closer to the Russian culture and make you smile!

As a bonus, in this Russia vlog I'll show you an amazing ice sculpures festival and some cool street interviews with Russians. Also, you'll learn some interesting details about ice fishing in Izhevsk and will hear modern Udmurt music! Enjoy this new episode of Russian girl's adventures! :)
