Life in Siberia

Our life in Russia is always an adventure! This was especially true during our first year, when we began our discovery of Russian language and culture "from scratch." We are so grateful for the intensive language program that helped equip us to communicate comfortably in our everyday life.

We have a passionate interest in the people groups of Siberia. Did you know there are over 40 different groups here, each with their own unique language and culture? Currently our goal is to live and work in the Republic of Tuva. We have received a job offer to teach English part-time and are waiting for work visa invitations, so that we can live in Tuva. In the meantime, we have been living in the Siberian cities of Novosibirsk and, currently, Krasnoyarsk.

We hope you enjoy our family's website and that it gives you an insight into our lives in Siberia.
