EATING PINECONE PANCAKES IN RUSSIA | Trans-Siberian Railway
In this chapter of our Russian adventure along the Trans-Siberian Railway, we stop in Novosibirsk and Krasnoyarsk and try some unique Russian food!
We're finally in Siberia after about a week on the train. Our first adventure is hiking The Columns. These beautiful magma pillars were formed when lava spurted up from an ancient seabed and cooled as they came in contact with the water. The seabed washed away, turned into a forest, and voila. The perfect place for a Russian travel vlog.
We also found a Siberian specialty food in Krasnoyarsk. Pinecones. Being Canadian, I didn't know you could eat these things. We have snack on a few on top of pancakes during this journey as well.
A bit of a background story. This is a train journey of 10,000 km across Russia, the biggest country in the world. 25 days to visit Saint Petersburg, Moscow, Kazan, Yekaterinburg, Krasnoyarsk, Ulan-Ude, and Vladivostok.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS; Russian: Росси́йская акаде́мия нау́к (РАН) Rossíiskaya akadémiya naúk) consists of the national academy of Russia; a network of scientific research institutes from across the Russian Federation; and additional scientific and social units such as libraries, publishing units, and hospitals.
Headquartered in Moscow, the Academy (RAS) is considered a civil, self-governed, non-commercial organization chartered by the Government of Russia. It combines the members of RAS (see below) and scientists employed by institutions. Near the central academy building there is a monument to Yuri Gagarin in the square bearing his name.
As of November 2017, the Academy included 1008 institutions and other units; in total about 125,000 people were employed of whom 47,000 were scientific researchers.
