Hello and welcome to the forum! My name's Marianne and I'm the new editor of the Russian Culture Site at Bella Online. If you have any comments on the articles you've read, want to get some information about Russia, or to share your experiences, please feel free to post, I'll be sure to reply.

Look forward to hearing from you,

Hi Marianne. I want to say how much I love Russian old buildings with their onion tops.
I like history too, but I have only read on the Royal family, who were killed and Rusputin, also the history of the Jews and Russians is interesting. One of my fav films is 'Fiddler on the Roof' Did you know Topol starred in James Bond too, in For your Eyes only'?

Hi Jane,

I didn't know that, no, though like you I love fiddler on the roof. One of my favourite books on Russia is Natasha's Dance by Orlando Figes. It's a cultural history, which I can get into more than the political stuff, fascinating though that is
