Privyet, droogs! Yes – we’ve been stitching time and saving the world a full 29 years already! And last Friday we celebrated those 29 years in typically unrestrained, loud, colorful, and rock & rollicking style. Also typical: the venue – the only one in the Moscow Region that can fit us all in: the Zavidovo

In the summer of 1982 – 44 years ago – arguably one of the greatest works in the history of Hollywood-kind premiered: Blade Runner. But in Chinese numerology, 44 is a “bad” number (“four” sounds a lot like “death” in Mandarin), so, should we wait until, say, summer 2027 to bring this topic up? But

On our Irkutsk–Yakutsk–Magadan–Yakutsk winter road-trip we finally rolled into civilization and were fast approaching Yakutsk Airport, from where we’d soon have the good fortune to be heading home. But before the triumphant finale to our adventures, we decided to investigate a topic that’s been pertinent to the locals here since, like, forever: connecting the two

It was a short flight from Lima, Peru up to Bogotá – the capital of Colombia. We had just one day here, and it was a strictly business one at that – alas, no tourism this time. No shots of unusual nature or off-the-beaten-path spots either. But here’s something that always makes me smile in

Hola folks! Lima oceanside walkies – done; next up – our LatAm partner conference, with 220 guests, from 19 countries. So. What? Why?!… It’ all rather straightforward really. Practically any mass-market product is sold not directly but through retail chains, distributors, resellers, and so on. Well – maybe with the exception of online sales of

Cities come in all shapes and sizes. There are the standout urban projects – like the island-city-state of Singapore. There are megacities that really lucked out with phenomenal natural beauty all around them – Rio de Janeiro, for instance. There are imperial capitals – St. Petersburg, say, or Beijing. And there are plenty of cities

Leaving Zyryanka, it struck me: the nearest airport with regular flights to the capital of our vast and boundless homeland is a full four days away by car! Well, if you really push it and don’t sleep at night, you could manage it in a couple of days. But if the rule is daytime =

Overall, the main items on the wish list for our winter Irkutsk-Yakutsk-Magadan-Yakutsk road-trip had either been checked off (the Indigirka Tube, the naleds and volcanoes of the Moma Valley, the Natalka gold deposit), or only unsuccessfully attempted because of an abnormal amount of snow (the Old Kolyma Highway). Incidentally, we canceled our attempt to get to

After my Korean interlude, it’s back to tales from the deep-frozen Siberian side; namely – a continuation of our drive along the winter road between the villages of Khonuu and Sasyr. The first installment is here. We’d wrapped up our naled-and-ice photo sessions, clambered back onto land, and it was time to press on!… Up

After our walk around central Seoul – next up: something wholly unusual: a prison! And this particular prison tells a very sad tale… From 1910 to 1945, Korea was occupied by Japan, which was extremely heavy-handed in Korean territory – and that led to spontaneous protests and the emergence of organized resistance. Naturally, the Japanese
