Russia, Russia, Russia. It's all we hear about these days. But what is Moscow really like in this day and age? Suzie Dawson, activist, journalist and leader of the Internet Party of New Zealand, takes you on a tour around Moscow, along with her best friend, tour guide Ksenia Terenteva.
Hey everyone!
Since Russia is incessantly bandied about in the news cycle by people who have never been here and probably never will, I figured its timely to take the opportunity to show people what Moscow is really like.
Kiwi In Moscow is a web series I started in 2017 which I intend to continue in 2018. In it, my best friend Ksenia and I tour around different locations in the city to show people what Moscow is really like, because it is absolutely nothing like it is depicted to be in the West.
Each episode has a different theme, features different places, people and activities, and has an interview component in each.
In the first episode the theme is food and co-operative businesses. We visit Revolution Square, the Bolshoi Theatre, Petrovka Boulevard, Lavka Lavka (an amazing organic co-operative restaurant), the Moscow Museum of Modern Art and the monuments to the victims of Soviet repression, before heading home for me to interview Richard D. Bartlett, one of the co-founders of New Zealand's most well-known tech co-operative, Loomio.
Would love to hear your feedback and know what you think. Do you like what you see? Is it what you expected?
The next episode gets even better, but because they take me a long time to produce, I'll probably only be posting one per month after that.
Enjoy!
