Last week I did something creative and unusual for me. I visited an exhibition tied with presentation of new issue of sport travel magazine "Touriste Russe" or "Russkiy Turist". The magazine has a very long story (it's over 100 years old) but suffered from hardships over the years. Currently the project is crowdfunded. The latest issue is dedicated to region of Tula and it is opening the series of magazines speaking closely about ways to explore the region and best routes for it. Cycling, kayaking, Nordic walking, backpacking even SAP - you name it, they have it. In fact you can definitely use the magazine as a guide to plan your perfect trip. Be you interested in nature or more urban locations you will find a lot of support there. Tula region is also very closely tied with Leo Tolstoy, the famous Russia writer so if you are interested in him I highly recommend you to visit this region (have in mind that most interesting parts are a bit scattered so save couple of days more).
The event was very much safe and they everything they possibly could to make it happen including lack of one of the people who personally made tons to make it happen due to his age. Masks, distancing and sanitizers were our best friends. It felt great to have events happening even though the most common phrase was: 'I am sorry I didn't recognize you in the mask'.
My outfit is my on to do basic. A comfortable dress, jacket and edgy shoes combined with a hat to make a casual statement. I can't really say my outfit was something special but I did feel very comfortable and stylish wearing it.

DeleteI’d love to be able to travel here one day. Hoping that the virus eases in the next year or two, so that everyone can safely return to travelling our beautiful planet again!
ReplyDeleteyes! I hope so too. a magazine about tourism makes me want to travel more. local travel is good but frankly not even close to traveling abroad
DeleteIt's good to hear you felt safe at the event. Loving your outfit the dress and jacket combo work well.

This is such an interesting event and focusing on outdoor activities locally is much encouraged. Glad it is crowdfunded at the moment, hopefully the project will be appreciated widely and proper funding can be expected. By the way, love your outfit especially your hat :)
ReplyDeleteI really love the jacket and how you put together this outfit. Getting almost impossible to recognize someone wearing these masks now.
