I wrote earlier that I applied for a Schengen visa, and now the results are here. I got a multi-entry visa for 90 days in the Schengen area. This is great news because now I can travel freely to many countries in Europe.

During those days, the city felt truly festive. Bright lights decorated the streets, shop windows were shining with colorful garlands, and a huge Christmas tree stood on the main square. People were walking around, taking photos, and kids were happily sliding down hills and skating on ice rinks.

Now, after some time, the memories are still vivid. New Year in Kazan was warm and cozy, even though the weather felt more like spring. Maybe it was one of the most unusual holidays in recent years.

Tomorrow I will walk around Kaban Lake and take a few pictures of the Kamal Theater

The New Year holidays are almost over, only three days left. Yesterday, I updated the map — now the countries I visited are highlighted.

Hello, friends! A few days ago, I applied for a Schengen visa. I hope everything goes smoothly, and I can go on a new trip soon. I’ll definitely share my impressions when it happens

Today, it got much colder — the temperature dropped to -18 degrees. It’s real winter, just as I expected.

These days, nothing special is happening. I’m working from home, going for walks in the evenings, and visiting the pool once a week. The end of the year has been very busy, and there’s a constant feeling of not having enough time

Today, I visited the pool and plan to go every week, training with my personal coach. My goal is to improve my swimming skills, especially with the breaststroke and freestyle, and also practice diving and underwater swimming.
