During my stay in Tokyo I met Claire, a french lady who moved to Tokyo in the 70s from Paris. She speaks, teaches and loves Russian. I would visit her house to enjoy the most curious French-Japanese-Russian cultural mix.

She owes a little house in the middle of Russian countryside, that she visits on holidays.

Whenever it happens that we are both in Russia, I go to visit her little blue house.

The Russian-French-Japanese mix is here as well, and it feels like home to me :)

beautiful and amazing photos i believe every culture has their own beauty which attracts people :)

Yeah :) somehow I always end up looking for similarities rather than the uniqueness of each

うわぁ~なんか懐かしい香りのする家ですね^^
元気でしたか~

めっちゃ古いお家だそうですよ(=´∀`)
まー色々ありましたよ、次の投稿で説明した方がいいのかな

うん!気になってましたよ

I love it when these blends of cultures come together and create something marvelous and unique. The little blue house looks like something from a story book!

It's nice to have places we can return to, and somehow they feel like "home."

=^..^=

Oh yeah! That house is so old and cute, it feels like an entirely other dimension.
