Speakers: Vadim Malinovsky , Historian
Vadim Malinovsky : Hello. Dear ladies and gentlemen, my name is Vadim. I'm a historian from Russia. I have graduated from Lomonosov Moscow State University, the department of Contemporary Russian history, and I'm an author of more than 30 different webinars of Context Learning, and this course is practically a virtual cruise by the rivers and canals of Russia. We will have 20 virtual stops in different areas from the very north of the country, from the White Sea to the very south of the country, where we will finish it at the bank of the Caspian Sea, and it will be a fusion of history, obviously, art, architecture and you will get to know the significance of each area for Russians in general.
Vadim Malinovsky : I was born in a family of a captain and I have done these cruises... I don't know... 15 times so I do know what I will be talking about.

During this cruise, you will see different cities, villages of the country and towns of course, you will get to know different cultural layers as well as do regional studies of a very huge territory of the biggest country in the world.
