Walking is a big part of Russian culture. I think, 1 because it's good for you, but 2 moreso that apartments are small and to find some private time with someone you go for a walk. So I got a phone call from Dennis last night and we went for a 3 hour walk! It was great! One, it's awesome for me, because I really feel like I'm developing friendships here. Two, I spoke Russian for 3 hours (after 5 hours earlier today already). Three, our conversations are about real things. It's SO nice for me to not only have the opportunity to touch the lives of others, but to be able to communicate on a real level and not feel like language is a huge barrier. So that was great!
