Hello my dear readers!
Apologies for not writing for a long time!
To make up for that – I would like to offer a new format meeting – to set up a webinar in which I will answer all the questions that you have been sending to me during the last several months. It will be a live chat – either with video or just a chat – up to us, what we decide. I am open to your suggestions – which media or app to choose for this chat.
Timeframe – either next week or the week after. Let me know, what you think will be best in comments.
I will be excited to see/hear you live, and maybe you will also be curious to see, who is behind the UnderstandRussia Project)) And I look forward to meet you too!
Let’s meet and talk!
Cheers,
Tanya

I love receiving your questions about Russia! It is fascinating to see what interests you and which questions you ask. I would’ve never invented some of those questions (because I am an insider and do not notice a lot of things), but I am always happy to answer them. This post is for Emma from Devon, UK, who reached out to me with her letter and a list of great questions!
