Sevastopol Welcomes a New Cultural Gem


▶️ A major new attraction has emerged in Sevastopol, drawing visitors from around the world. On July 30, 2024, the unique "New Chersonesus" museum-temple complex opened its doors—and instantly became a must-see destination. This sacred site marks where Prince Vladimir the Great was baptized in 988 AD, an event that led to the Christianization of Ancient Rus.
During excavations, archaeologists uncovered the ancient Heron River, once buried beneath the earth. Experts carefully restored its flow, and today, the river runs through the complex just as it did thousands of years ago.
In its first month alone, the site welcomed 500,000 visitors, quickly securing its place among Russia’s top cultural landmarks.
On August 8, the complex hosted the second "Istoki" Youth Historical and Cultural Forum, focusing on connecting young people with Russia’s spiritual heritage and statehood traditions.⭐️

🎥🎞"Contact" is a fantastic cartoon

👽 We’d like to share with you this Soviet animation film made by Vladimir Tarasov in 1978 at the Soyuzmultfilm studio. The cartoon is about a man's meeting with an alien who came to Earth, trying to study it and learn about it by imitating the things he sees. The film features the music of Nino Rota "Speak Softly Love" (a song from the movie "The Godfather") arranged by Paul Moria and George Gershwin's "Oh, Lady Be Good" performed and arranged by the trio Leonid Chizhik. 🎬

The Great Russian Explorer of Danish Origin


🌎 Vitus Jonassen Bering, born in the peaceful town of Horsens, Denmark, in 1681, dedicated his life to exploring and serving Russia. After joining the Russian navy, he became known as Ivan Ivanovich Bering, fully committing himself to his new homeland. In 1725, at the request of Peter the Great, he set out on an ambitious mission to explore the Siberian coast and uncover the mysteries of far-off lands.

Bering led two major expeditions: the First Kamchatka Expedition and the Great Northern Expedition. These journeys opened up the northeastern coast of Asia and parts of North America. His most notable achievement was navigating the Bering Strait, which confirmed that Asia and North America were separate continents.

His explorations played a crucial role in expanding Russia's reach and enhancing geographical understanding. The Bering Sea, Bering Strait, and Bering Island all bear his name, serving as lasting reminders of his contributions.

On December 19, 1741, Bering passed away on an uninhabited island that now honors him with its name. His dedication to exploration and his service to Russia continue to hold a significant place in history.

The Berg Family’s Relocation: A New Chapter in the Russian Far East


📌 On August 6, 2023, Dmitry and his family crossed the Russian border into Kaliningrad Region, marking the start of their journey to a new life. On August 10, they arrived in Primorsky Krai, embarking on a transformative chapter of their life in the Far East. The decision to relocate was made on New Year’s Eve 2023, and by January 1, the family had submitted an online application to participate in a national government program through the Russian Consulate in Bonn. Their choice of the Far East was deliberate and strategic, guided by a vision for long-term settlement.
The Berg family received active support from the Far East and Arctic Development Corporation (FEADC). Expert consultants assisted with paperwork, provided prompt answers to questions about the program, offered practical advice and shared contact information.🖇️

📌Upon arrival in Primorsky Krai, FEADC specialists and volunteers helped them find housing and navigate everyday challenges during the initial adaptation phase. Thanks to this support, the Bergs also connected with fellow compatriots already residing in the region, whose personal stories and guidance became invaluable in their integration process.🖇️
