“Today early in the morning, at 5:30 AM, my plane landed at Kazan International Airport. The landing was very smooth and comfortable. After landing, I spent about an hour, or a little less, at passport control because everything was very slow and the line was long. At passport control, a police officer asked me about my trip and what countries I had visited for such a long time. I answered everything honestly.

Tomorrow my flight to Kazan will be on an Airbus A330-203, and my seat is 16K by the window. Today, at the last moment, I checked in and got this seat. If I understand correctly, for passengers who don’t buy a seat, the system randomly assigns middle seats first, and only after those are filled does it start assigning other seats.

Hey friends, today is August 30th, the last days of summer and the Republic of Tatarstan, my homeland, people are celebrating Republic Day. I also want to share about my summer. These months were very memorable for me because I visited several European and Asian countries. It was a really cool and useful experience. As for my plans, today I don’t have anything special because I already finished everything. I just need to pack my belongings, rest, and tomorrow early in the morning (at 5 AM) I’ll go to the airport.

Last week was crazy, a lot of work tasks, a lot of trips. I was really busy. I only managed to sort everything out by sunday evening.

It’s very cold in Kazan right now, the temperature dropped to -30°C. Despite this, i went to my last swimming training today.

Yesterday was an amazing day, in the morning, i went to the pool, swam, and had a session with my coach. I’m very happy with my swimming results. I have two more sessions with the coach, after which i’ll stop training and swim on my own for fun.

In one of my posts, i wrote that I met someone who lives in another country. Well, it's a girl my age, a bit younger than me. Today, when we were texting, i know which city she is from, and i was shocked.

Last weekend, I visited the village of Burbashsky Sardygan, which is about 120 kilometers from Kazan. In the summer, I posted a video about this place on my YouTube channel, where I walked through the most beautiful spots. This time, I decided to walk the same paths again and also collect fresh water from the local spring, "Nurzida," since I only drink water. The walk was nice, and the nature was just as beautiful as before. You can watch the summer video at the link.
