#LittleKnownFact ....... In #Soviet #Russia, during the #winter, it is #forbidden to wear anything of #color. . . . . . . #ettiquette states that #BlueJeans are acceptable, but must be accompanied with a dark #coat or #jacket. .. . And you must always have black #shoes! . . #ViolatorsWillBeProsecured to the fullest extent of the law! . . . . Ok, I made all of that up, but seriously, people wear a lot of #black here. . .

#moscow has had an explosion of #vendingmachines. . . This one is for #French #crepes, also know as #блины in #Russian (#blingi) although they like to #translate it as #pancakes. . . . Although if you grew up in #America, you would never call these pancakes, cuz they are super thin and plate sized, and sometimes rolled up with something, like #hamncheese. . #lostintranslation? . . #Moscow #Russia #getyourteflhustleon #livelife #yummy #wantmore #breakfast #goodfood #robotsaretakingover #trysomethingnew #moscowstreetfood (at Krasnoselskaya)

So, you see a lot of things in the #moscow #metro and #people trying to move all kinds of things. . . I have to say I too have been guilty of that. 😜 . Coming home from work last night, saw this guy trying to take his #new #washing machine home with him, or maybe out for a walk? :b . . . #ilovemsk #moscowmetrostuff #crazyrussia #getyourteflhustleon #crazy #subway #russia #fun #travelphotography #travelabroad #lol😂 #goingout #going4awalk #wow😍 #forreal #funnyshit (at Metro Pushkinskaya)

A #classicalmusic performance in the #moscowmetro on the way to #work tonight.............. ....... These guys are #prettygood. I have seen them #play before. Sometimes, they even have a whole #orchestra playing! Of course, it also helps that the #acoustics are pretty a-ok.

I'm not sure what kind of #music this is, but this style of #bells is common in #Russia.

This was a neat all you can eat #sushicafe in #dusseldorf #germany that was fairly popular on sundays. ------- So, the way it worked was this - you paid a set fee, i think it was like 10 euro. Then you could have all the food you wanted. The only catch was that you ordered through the #ipad, and then you could re-order after a set period of time. So, there was a countdown timer until the waitress would bring the next round. -------- but, the big catch was that whatever you didn't eat when you went to leave, you had to pay full price! -------- #goodidea #getyourteflthustleon #teachabroad #ilovegermany #okinni #ipadiscool #upscalecafe #ilovesushi #travel #newthings #dusseldorfgermany #deutschland #sushiisyummy #yummysushi #nomnomnom #relaxing #funtimes #upscaledining #signofthetimes #allyoucaneat #rolls #rawfish #yummyfood #beernsushi (at Düsseldorf, Germany)

Waiting for my turn to in #thestudio. ----- I've done #voiceovers, #cartoons, CDs for #children, #presentations for large #corporates, and even had a few super #minor lines in #movies, but this was one of the first times I got to #audition and be accepted to be an #English #voiceactor.--------- None of this was because I was #superawesome, just that it is easier to get work behind the #mic in #moscow cuz of less #nativeenglish speakers. -------- In any case, I'll take what I can :) ------- As a quick n shameless plug, look at my profile to see the link to my book in Amazon. Teaching English puts you in touch with people that you never would have had a chance or reason to speak with! and remember, #alwayssayyes ! ------ I guess this show will be broadcast in the #us in the nearest months.----- #lifeiswhatyoumakeit #voiceovers #voiceactors #mividaloca #getyourteflhustleon #studiowork #everythingispossible #watchmeontv #teachtheword #englisheverywhere #adventureisoutthere #ohyea (at Kropotkinskaya)

Around #Moscow, there are numerous #graffitiart #murals that cover entire sides of buildings. ------- #moscowcitygovernment pays for some of them. ---------- This one is of #finnandjake, #stars of the #adventuretime #cartoon, on #cartoonnetwork, although I'm not sure they endorsed this particular #pieceofart . ---------- #whoknows, maybe the whole thing is actually a #paidadvertisement . In any case, it adds a bit of color to an otherwise #boring building. ------- ------ #Finn #jake #finnnjake #princesslumpy #beemo #cartoonadventures #adultswim #getyourteflhustleon #escapeartist #escapeamerica #expat #expatlife #kidsstuff #asplashofcolor #funfunfun #moscowviews (at Zoopark Barikadnaya)

So, the #pokemongocraze hit #Moscow over the #summer and this #cafe was opened. --------- It's fairly #brilliant #moneytree since it is right by the #moscowzoopark, as in, literally across the street.-------- They have a person in a #pikachucostume passing out flyers and the inside is full of #pokemonmemorabilia. ----- The #moscowzoo also has a #pokemongym, so lots of #people playing #pokemongo stop by for a quick bite. ---- #pokestop #pokestops #getyourteflhustleon #pokestopcafe #pokestops #moscowrussia #learnenglish #travel #pokemon #pokemonrussia #muralsart #streetgraffiti #travelmore #travelporn #pokemongo #teacher #pokeburger (at Moscow Zoo)

One of the #sevensisters in #Moscow, as seen from the #tchaikovsky #museum, across the street and from the third floor. -------- #stalin built these in the #1950s, in response to the #skyscrapers in #nyc. -------- There are seven of them across the #city. ------- This one is close to the #americanembassy and #novinskypassage. ------- The building has a few #cafes, a #cheap #beerhall and an #expensive 3-4 star place as well. But the back of it has a #hipster #craftbeer bar, and the #brooklynclub, so if you want to #getyourpunkon, now you know where. #teachenglish #getyourteflhustleon #traveltheworld #traveltheworldwithme #travelpics #russia #moscowrussia #ilovemsk #teachersofinstagram #tefl #learnenglish (at Moscow P.

This is a #waterpolice station on the #moscowriver. It is pretty cool. ---------- This place is pretty #multifunctional. It has a #helicopterlandingpad on the top, a #controlroom, a #weatherstation ,A #waitingroom underneath, and a place for #boats to #dock. -------- The other, really #supercool part is that, yes, that is a #hovercraft. In fact, this #policestation has berths for two hovercraft. -------- It is pretty neat to see hovercraft work when the #policepatrol the #river in the #winter when it is all #frozenover. ----- This station is across the river from #gorkypark or also known as #parkgorkogo. --------- #ilovemsk #russia #getyourteflhustleon #getyourteachon #teachabroad #russianpolice #waterpatrol #riverlife #lawandorder #mvd #policeboat #centerofmoscow #travel #travelgram (at Парк Культуры)

So, it went on and one like this- skulls and bones everywhere and all stacked in a very nice, artistic way. ------ I am not sure what they did with the other, "lesser bones" like the #footbones are the #chestbones. Who knows, maybe they are there, I just don't know what I am #lookingat or they are behind the piles of stacks of easily stack-able bones. ------- Apparently, the public tour area is just a small fraction of the true, sprawling nature of the catacombs, and since 1955, it has been #illegal to go into the other parts. ---------- of course, with that said, there are #rumors of massive parties and #raves being held underground, and one #source says- "One of these underground #caverns, for instance, was transformed into a #secret #amphitheater, complete with a giant cinema screen, projection equipment, a couple of films and seats. ------ The neighboring area was revamped into a #fullystocked bar and a restaurant, perhaps where the patrons of the #amphitheater could get a snack or a meal. crazy, right?

another shot of the #pariscatacombs. ------ This was a circular column, and you could walk all the way around it. It is strange to think that these used to be living, breathing #humans. In total the winding catacombs stretch over 300 kilometers (186 miles). ------ I guess the most important thing is to #remember- "forget the small stuff, cuz in the end, we are all dead, my friend." ----- #forgetthesmallstuff #noonegetsoutalive #deathart #neatparisthings #ohitsfrench #ossuaries #cityoflight #limestone #LesInnocents #catholicchurch #kinglouisxv #getyourteflhustleon #teachenglish #traveltheworld #solotravel #nofilter #wanderlust #adventure #travelgram #explore #adventuretravel #netherworld #horror #bones (at Les Catacombes)

So, one of the #creepier things to see in #paris are the #catacombs. --- It is just really #strange to not only be #underground, but to be walking among lots of #bones and #skulls, and used in an #artistic way. ---- It took us almost an hour to #waitinline, but it was #worthit! #getyourteflhustleon #seefrance #seeparis #seenewthings #liveabroad #europe #undergroundtours #parisiscool #teachenglish #teachenglishabroad #skullandbones #parisunderground #parisundergroundtour #youonlyliveonce #wellworthit #notscared #teachersofinstagram #liveineurope #liveinparis (at Catacombs of Paris)

So, #moscow is pretty #dark after 7pm during the #winter, so the #moscowcitygovernment puts these neat #nightflower s all over in the #parks. ------ they also cover the #trees in #ledlights, mostly #blue and #white. It is pretty cool looking, but I #wonder what #msk would have looked like with no #electricity. I'm #guessing pretty dark and prob #smokey.
