oh well...but of course i overstayed my visa because of love with a siberian girl....well, actually there were more than one: Svetlana, Anya, Darima, Medegma, Evgenia and Tanya....let's say the truth, here in Italy I haven't great success with girls. Siberia was wonderful (I loved those freezing tempratures at -30/-50), all of my friends were into metal and punk and I found the hottest girls in the world....and they strangely appreciated me...
Transiberian twice, from St Peterburg and back...and that was also another great adventure ("love", friends....)......yes, definitively I found that Siberia, and Russia are going to be my new homeland.......
and the black priest looked like Morgan Freeman somehow...huge, a bit menacing......I'll send him some money as soon as I get my first salary next month....he helped me out much more than any human can do, you can't even imagine what kind of hell is the russian bureaucracy....
well actually my kind "hosting" at the central police office in St Peterburg wasn't that terrible....in 2 days and half I was always drinking coffee and tee with the guards....but of course I couldn't exit the place until my position was clear.
Don't mess with russian bureaucracy...I was lucky because somebody put this black priest on my way and he could speak italian (I want to sy God helped me or made a miracle but I know it sounds ridicolous...) but if he weren't there, I would probably be still there, wandering from one office to the other, probably would be in jail yet and anyway I could get a 5-years inhibition from russian territory...but he was in great confidence with the head at the police office so I really got a sort of miracle.....
but this trip was a sort of magic experience....my shaman girlfriend in Mongolia (a strange girl who could make rain in the desert and sleep completely naked for 1 week in the frozen wood at -60, she could read people's mind and kill people by distance....a real shaman, totally unbelievable for our western' rational minds)....all my hooligan friends in Ulan Ude, a colossal drunken night with the Orgazm Nostradamusa (the most famous punk band in Buriatya) singer, Trident live (so so...) and tons of stories I can't even believe...I wrote everything in my blog but it's in italian so it will be hard to resume 6 months of incredible adventures (yes, i traveled 8 years all around Asia but this time I experienced something I never experienced before except, maybe, last year in Nepal and Tibet...)........
yes, if I could come back I would overstay not only 2 weeks but 2 years....my last night in Ulan Ude...well, the hottest night I ever had in my life....maybe Siberia is cold (but I felt I like those -50!!!!) but siberians are the hottest girls in the world....
And a Transiberian from St Peterburg to Ulan Bator with only 130 US$.....if you have time and you're crazy enough, go there and experience it...you'll never forget it! And on the way back you can stop at Gorbushka in Moscow....
