Novosibirsk, Siberia


 Meet:  Natasha, Mikhail, Boyko, Ekatrina, Vika, Masha, Olga, Andry, Daniil, Diana, Anya, Katya, Daiyru, and Anastasia.



Here, they are enjoying the 10 minutes of sunshine that has occurred so far in their visit.  We are laughing at them a bit because they think it's so cold here.  Our winter has been consistently 20-40 degrees warmer than theirs, but something about the damp air here makes them stay bundled up--even inside.


They bring much energy into the classroom and our choir is growing bigger on a daily basis--we're already planning a small performance for their farewell party next week.  Stay tuned...

  1. If you do the semester swap with their school, you'll certainly have a hoot - they seem very energetic. And hey, you can be a mule and bring them stuff from "Vic's," as Nikki Neufeld used to call it.

  2. I love seeing what you're doing in your job. It looks like so much fun. You almost get the travel experience by getting all these international groups coming through your tutelage...
