It’s very cold in Kazan right now, the temperature dropped to -30°C. Despite this, i went to my last swimming training today.

There is almost no snow left in Kazan, and the temperature is +3°C, even though it's only early february. Usually, this weather comes in mid or late march. Let's see what happens in march and april, i hope there won’t be freezing temperatures

The weather was amazing, there were no clouds in the sky, and the sun was bright and warm. I walked around Kaban Lake, and during the walk, I saw many sportsmen, and everyone was doing their exercises. Also, I met wild ducks swimming peacefully in the lake. Their presence made the walk even more enjoyable, and I couldn't resist stopping to watch them for a while. Definitely, this place is one of my favorites

Today it's -20 degrees, very cold, feels like -30

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.
