The ballet "Romeo and Juliet" was shown in Moscow
Date Posted: April 21, 2008

The ballet "Romeo and Juliet" was shown in Moscow from 18 to 20 of April by the troupe
"Deutsche Oper am Rhein" from Düsseldorf and it was a part of the Festival of Modern German Choreography supported by Roland Berger Strategy Consultants. The Festival, which runs from March 27 through April 24, showcases the best German performers and strengthens the cultural interchange between Germany and Russia.

On April 20th, I provided a city tour to three young dancers from this troupe. When we were walking around the area of the Red Square and GUM, I took a picture of the ballet poster which was hanging on one of many theater ticket offices in downtown. Also, in my special photo album dedicated to "My Dear Clients" you can see the picture of my recent clients (Coll...

Excursion under snow in Air Force Museum in Monino
Date Posted: April 17, 2008

If compare with nice sunny warm days at the beginning of the month, during the last week the weather in Moscow became nasty, lots of rains and low temperatures, but today was quite exciting day for my current clients, Tom and Kerry from Australia. They hired my services far in advance (in January) on the dates of thier staying in Moscow, from 16 till 19 of April, with planning personal itineraries for sightseeing tours and and purchasing tickets in Old Circus.

On today, April 17th, I planned for Tom and Kerry a special countryside tour to Air Force Museum in Monino and Sergiev Posad (Holy Trinity St. Sergious Lavra). Followed by our special itinarary we arrived to this museum (located 38 km on East from Moscow) on time, even a bit earlier, and already at 9:20 our ...

Patriarch Alexii II releasing two white doves on the holiday of the Annunciation
Date Posted: April 07, 2008

On April 7th, the holiday of Annunciation of the Mother of God, I organized for my Australian clients a special tour to the Grand Kremlin and Faceted palaces on the first half of the day and after this tour we planned to see cathedrals and Armory museum of the Moscow Kremlin. For a while I was waiting for my clients from this special tour, so I decided to hang around the grounds of the Kremlin to take some interesting pictures by my new camera, I had about 1.5 hours for it and actually this time passed very quick - it was really nice warm sunny day, I can say that my clients from Australia were very lucky with weather, they were the first sunny spring days.

Walking around the Cathedrals Square (the main square of Moscow Kremlin) I noted several camera crews and j...

Starting personal photo-album of "My Family"
Date Posted: February 29, 2008

An idea to create a special photo album dedicated to "My Family" at my website appeared long time ago, but I was not sure if it would be interesting and worthwhile to post personal pictures of my family. It might be interesting for visitors looking for personal services, as well as my former clients and friends, to see how I live, new pictures of me, my lovely wife and pets and, of course, some interesting news of our family which I can post with these pictures. I used to provide not only a guide and transportation services, but also became a friend to travelers on whom they can rely upon in an unknown country with different culture, customs and alphabet. I try to stay in touch with many of my former clients and keep our friendly communications. Many of them have ...

My new digital SLR camera - Nikon D300
Date Posted: January 31, 2008

Currently (at the end of January 2008), I am quite busy with my repeat clients, mostly business people, and had not time for a while to learn its manual, but I have already tested it and made several shots of my pets. I was so excited even I forgot that several minutes earlier that I was very tired after a Moscow By Night tour with my clients.

With the new Nikon, it's like I changed a Russian Lada for a Mercedes...You can see one of the pictures with “My lovely Pets - Kerry and Lilu”, which I took during that night.

To learn all features of this amazing camera, which was released in September 2007, you can read review posted by Phil Askey at Digital Photography Review website Nikon D300 Hands-on Preview.

A Letter with Season Greetings from Canada
Date Posted: January 17, 2008

At the end of the past winter holidays (in Russia Dec 30 - Jan 08) I received via post a letter from Olga and Bill Rogers who used my services in Moscow during almost a week (6 days) at the end of June 2007. When I opened a big envelope I was greatly surprised with a handmade calendar with the pictures which Olga and Bill took during their pretty long trip to Russia and Ukraine, and after reading their nicely designed message I remembered all the best moments from our tours to Moscow famous landmarks. I was so exited reading their story, so then I had a thought that it can be interesting not only for me and immediately sent to Olga a message with my request to post it on my website. After receiving their permission, from my side, I decided to make some small gift for...
