What does the Russian Presidents Wife Svetlana Medvedeva do when Medvedev is busy getting iPhones, talking world issues with Obama and meeting the terminator – Arnold Schwarzenegger?


She gets to do the truly important stuff like check out history and meet a Russian Kindergarten in America. She also gets songs sang to her. I think her day was more fun than Medvedev’s day would have been.

Just watch the video and you will see what Svetlana Medvedeva does while hubby is saving the world…

The Winter Olympic 2014 city of Sochi is having a green makeover, as the mayor and many volunteers celebrated World Environment Day by planting Magnolias in one of its parks.

The park was an abandoned construction site just a few months ago. But now local authorities are working with environmental activists in a bid to make the Olympic city greener.

Their main goals are to restore infrastructure and to clean the parks and beaches.

And now we are watching a beautiful musical video made by my favorite blogger Rubric (Russian Birmingham).

Just relax and enjoy beautiful flowers and sunny song!
