Dry Frogs

Recently met my friend Benjamin in Irkutsk. We got aquainted on Olkhon Island. And he told me that they recorded a song and a music video with a company of Irkutyanins. I really liked this video. Music is very energetic!

Travelers saved a man on lake Baikal ice

The ice is very tricky this days. It is very dangerous to walk on it, especially in the end of may. :)

Two french travelers saved a man from a floating piece of ice on the lake. They decided to go for a short hicking trip, and saw a man on the ice. Asked for help from local people who could understand what they are trying to say. Finally this man was saved, by an international team. What a surprise :)

Here is their blog about their eurasian trip.



Thanks to foreign travelers! :) Ура!
