Working Brother
🧿 Just in case you have never been to a hotel, everything is labeled here.
🧿 Just in case you thought I was joking or exaggerating, some more of the labels in the hotel room.

If nothing else I am learning Russian words.

🧿 In the next couple of days 'Working Brother' will be going to the DPR to film on location and interview people on the ground. I already have a list of things and people to see, film and interview, however as the goal is, was, and will be to give the viewers what they want to see, tell me what that is.

Leave your comments and suggestions for topics that you are curious about and have not been covered enough (or at all) by other media.

(And I will do my best to make it happen)

🧿 Memorial to the 25,000 Rostov residents slaughtered by the nazi occupiers during WW2.

They were rounded up (mostly Jews) and put into this very pit and murdered.

Russia remembers.

🧿 WW1 memorial at the entrance to Rostov-on-Don.

(Gives the whole 'to the moon' idea a new perspective - yes that is the moon top left.)

🧿 Eternal memory to the fallen heroes.

(All the monuments I visited today had flowers laid at them, it would seem that the memory of the second world war is still very fresh and alive.)

🧿 Eternal memory to the fallen heroes. (All the monuments I visited today had flowers laid at them, it would seem that the memory of the second world war is still very fresh and alive.)
🧿 Today is Monday, museums don't work on Mondays in Russia, I had planned to visit two. Thankfully the hotel reception introduced me to a tour guide (who also works with the ICRC) who volunteered to take me around all the monuments in and around Rostov-on-Don. Not only was he full of information about the city, the memorials, and the history, he was also versed in the current situation. Fifteen years ago he lived in Lughansk, he tells me he still has a 'babushka' living in Kiev, and another in Moscow, even though he was born in Rostov-on-Don.

He was adament that the Ukrainian and the Russian people are one. He was also hopeful that this will not escalate to a third world war, or a nuclear exchange.

Likewise, he pointed out that Rostov-on-Don was occupied by nazis for three years, yet it was liberated.

Big thanks to Yevgeni for the tour.
