More than 20 years ago, the Englishman Craig Ashton came to St. Petersburg with the intention of returning home as soon as he learned Russian. And he's still here. With us. It's all right.

- Why knock dehydrated fish on the table?
- What is it like to walk, be sick and be friends in Russian?
- How to get a residence permit in the GUVM of the Ministry of Internal Affairs through the FMS, without being late to the CED, without forgetting 2-NDFL, TIN, TRP and confirmation from the TRP?
- How to survive in a Russian bath?
- What is the beauty of our songs, movies and cartoons?
- Does a foreigner like herring under a fur coat and pickled mushrooms?
- What is the value of Russian holidays?
- What are the difficulties and anti-complexities in Russian?

This incredibly touching, kind, written with subtle humor and at the same time trembling care, the book will make you cry and laugh, nostalgic and observe, be inspired and endlessly surprised by a sensitive view of Russian culture from the outside and from the inside.
