Novosibirsk, Russia - 1st October 2013
By: Abdysh
Hello everyone!
I'm a newbie there. My name is Borya (Боря-), nice to meet you all!
I got bored from Siberian snow and cold, so I decided to see the world.
My aim is to meet as many relatives-bears as possible, no matter if they real, statues, toys etc. I heard that Berlin is the city of bears...
Looking forward for my first trip. Bursting with impatience!
There is my Mom, Anna Potapovna, on the photo. She is worried a much about my decision...
I promised her that she won't be alone. She calmed down a bit, when I said that my friends from all over the world will visit her, and they would be happy to stay for a while in her caring paws. TVs, won't you?
Tomorrow I'm going to walk in my native city and take some photos to invite you. See you!
Sorry for my unperfect English. Happy ToyVoyaging! As we say in Russia, "В добрый путь!" ("Good luck in the journey!").

Novosibirsk, Russia - 2nd October 2013
By: Abdysh
Well I've decided to show you my native city. Today I've walked in some beautiful places: Plakha, Pervomaiskiy square, the enbankment of Ob river and etc... It's too little, NSK has much more sights! But I couldn't walk more because I really don't like such a rainy weather. (Snow and winter much MUCH better). Looking forward to visiting some warm places...
Welcome to Novosibirsk, ToyVoyagers!

Here I am eating lunch with my host, Tonirose, in her school. Electronics are not allowed during school time, but we got a picture during lunch. American food is very different than Russian food. But it is still good. :-)

These are the resident bears. They are twins, Mikey (purple) and Pinky (pink). They are my friends now. They don't travel like me because they are so big and they love their home in California.

My host's mom made some balloons to decorate for a boy's pirate party. I wish I could have a party for my birthday too. I'm starting to like pirates now. They are very scary and have lots of treasure!

Whew! Made it to Dallas today. Awfully sleepy after the journey halfway across the United States, but I wanted to stop in and let everyone know I got here safe and sound. Kruppchen was already here and is keeping me company, and my host family has some fun plans for me over the next few weeks.
Be back soon! *yawn*
