7:33 pm
coat. a trip to the republic of. just over six hundred kilometers east of moscow it's home to around nine hundred thousand people must be some of the fittest in the country. maybe when it comes to school it's definitely a major player. to say the holiday are more likely to head to the beach. but you can really travel around without at least having a go at some winter sports and at least with this one i do get to see some stuff.
7:34 pm
every day dozens of people head out to the tracks here some shooting in cross country skiing from experts absolutely can it's. quite fun we got the right equipment but it has been a very long time since i struck some skis. and there was always the promise of some place to look for. no one told me that i was going to have trekked through the forest to reach it. still may be the hardest thing. scandinavian. well. for
7:35 pm
this one month. but finally i made it over the top down to the top it's. just about. good my. ok. we've got some of the. ceasing range. and it was time for a noise relaxing lloyd how do you propose to besides. lie down the. no no on your stomach but one leg here why. so he's going. apparently biathlon also requires unnatural flexibility to spread your legs like him. plus i was determined of those tiny little tollgates were not going to get the best of me. yet. but i would be idea of
7:36 pm
a little bit of norwegian blood in me. now this part of biathlon i could definitely get used to. politically have to work on my posture. how good this is where are. they doing here. it's definitely a useful skill to have with the snow just stick on the ground but i decided i would be better off walking to my first destination. well the horses always had a special place and more davey and culture traditionally more as a beast of burden or a means of transport rather than anything else but. local farm has been doing something. and that's all down to animal launch premier aleksei i used to work as a vet but i have one point some of my colleagues and i decided to start
7:37 pm
a farm producing coma's which is for men to know. we've been operating for just over two years we have eighty horses here. has been a popular drink on the central asian steps for thousands of years but aleksei is introducing it to a brand new market he already has a team is here and he's aiming for three hundred. days three well behaved. the. said no. to a cow in that respect. i think. i've seen a milk cow. go. hire me horses are a little bit too capricious for. the technique.
7:38 pm
in the winter the farmer only produces around a hundred liters of milk a day because there's less straw. as for the horses and rest a moment but in summer they yield fifty percent of the world assuming the animals are corporations. and suggested an old. lovely and specific job to do because if the mayor's milk isn't flowing this little one gets to suck little bits are not normally will make the milk come as an instinctive response. once the milk has been collected it's off to be processed i was tempted to try some but of salix a explain that it's actually a powerful laxative i became rather less keen. fortunately in the fermentation process suitable but it sounds. richer tome flora to you. quickly give us. big lovely warm lives mill. and then place and
7:39 pm
receive. the fresh milk is mixed with some that's already been processed and off to sixty minutes it's ready for packaging. the syrup price so there we. have the finishing touch hopefully. one before a very fresh coolness of the for a sanitarium or supermarket need. unfortunately was a case of one down might you know i'm to go. oh it's. filling this milk champagne not all off noon so i think it's time to try one out.
7:40 pm
healthy. holik. beautiful. but if you are looking for a real drink the most jovian council surrounds has plenty of the piecing option. of such a place he's. going to find a misplaced as well as me. he's also somewhere for me. i'm already. the fuss him always going to get on the decks i want to swim a booklet with us. a little does cards. some stuff. i'm feeling much more confident i made my way of the city jail ship for much of this list. leaving with the d.j. could you show me a few tricks that. everything's loaded on street risky disc in this club so there
7:41 pm
were no actual records to mix but they were about fifty three dylan saying look i'm going to. do this one of the instructions from this land. from. the mixing was an exact seamless lead is a guaranteed fulfilling click. this my list so should i could and then it'll take up a column will come to the position. thank you a. lot. but they thought it was my first time on planet. i guess you know. that. sucks. it turns out the jolt was an aspiring doctor who'd come all the way from st john's
7:42 pm
study in surround. and the next day we met up for a walk around the city. so you have twelve brothers and sisters near. as i am an only child. i guess. but i never give up on anything they go always help us all with what he did a lot to me not only to me for my brother. do a lot i have my dad out you know and that's why you're here yeah that's way and i guess it is. been based in ceramics for almost four years but he admits that it's taken time to adapt to russian culture but with another two years before his cool finds john's focus is firmly on his studies yeah see since i wanted to be a doctor at the time i came here because. after
7:43 pm
finishing all i can help see you can do something really really well make a difference in the chance to prove yourself and i can do something better for a living sometimes i get to meet really amazing people much intervals and john was clearly inspired by his time and surrounds it's still a city that not many foreigners have seen but in a few years' time all that's going to change. now you already seen the mordovia has some pretty amazing sports facilities and the football stadium is no exception but in twenty eighteen the world cup is coming to russia and a capacity of seventy thousand. to take it a cutting. building to surround six new stadium is already underway and it's going to cost around one hundred eighty million dollars. but with so much at stake surrounds i thought it was important to get
7:44 pm
a feel for the playing conditions. oh. we may so we miss the one hundred cities where it is never to be out of play. so i really mean russia friendly i beg. your voice all right. if we pull this off this really could put saran sky on the map but it's not going to strangers to world class sports facilities here. shortly. culture is that so much of an oldish musician i sometimes i'm on the mark with the macho chord illogic of humanitarian interventions as libya grinds into stalemate well outside powers find themselves pulled deeper into this.
7:45 pm
7:46 pm
on r t. but. it might not be long before russia's top footballers will be playing and surrounds but some of the country's best cyclists are already here now looking at this weather you're probably thinking not exactly the best conditions in the world to some the of exploiting well the local government agreeing with you so they decided to do something rather radical about since. it's a walled first. well it's only coverage and saw a spate of extract. the center in the open in the early two thousand and ten but it's already home to russia's for interest reuters. as we wade a good deal of progress both a europe and russia
7:47 pm
a european champion is training here koch who had walt within the olympic champion is here as well is preparing all sportsman for the two thousand and twelve games. other sports also become incredibly popular with the local children more than two hundred fifty young riders train here regularly and the man in charge of them all is coach europe. before they can become champions they need to learn a few basic skills. how to go be a mixing as a kid but that was now a very long time ago. they say you never forget riding a bike but if i was going to take on this track i had one or two technical issues to sort out. all the tighter. careful on the turn. don't jump into high.
7:48 pm
gear or the second hump at least. that is a bit more. amazingly . i think i'm probably about. there. more of a culture buff than a fitness fanatic there's still plenty to see and more. i began my journey with the visits one of its oldest and most important religious subjects. this is the same john the evangelist smaller stream which houses churches dating back to the
7:49 pm
beginning of the eighteenth century but it also doubles as a spiritual and physical rehabilitation center. rather ruffian is early in his mid twenty. yes but he's already lived here for several years. his day begins with early morning prayers but his most important tosk is to supervise the late brothers and come to live and work in the ministry. you two gentlemen go to the hotels backyards your help is needed there grab the garbage police as for you go and bring some water as. many of the helpers here are planning to take monastic prowess but others like sergei are looking for a different kind of redemption. i joined this morris tree because i was an alcoholic and a drug addict people get subsidies for medical assistance people suffering from all kinds of addictions stay here for long periods of time. they come here just to live
7:50 pm
and work in this holy place they get treatment for free the monasteries atmosphere and the way of life here help them recover. but it's no easy rowing in return for their room and board and help us work ten hour days and in the winter weather that means a lot of snow shoveling so this is what daily life is like in the other how it was here the faces tend to change on a fairly regular basis and one thing stays the same and none of them are here for material gain they're hoping for a more spiritual reward. as a few personal demons as well. prep plays a vital part everyone is expected to attend early morning and evening services
7:51 pm
a meal times are each accompanied with bible readings. based. it is going to begin here. with my tasks finally complete i headed back to surround the small site scene and try and find the city's most visited grave site. this is the man i come to see all of his favorite sons and certainly its most famous artist the cool step of the russian road down and his work is still on display in the local museum. there is here was born and raised in more jovial before study in moscow and moving to italy in france to refine his technique. in the one nine hundred twenty s. the soviet government sent him abroad as an ambassador of the soviet aunts and he spent almost twenty five years living and working in argentina. and it was here
7:52 pm
that he created his signature hardwood sculptures. to tell sculpture of moses is one of his most famous works some see it as a tribute to michelangelo sculpture of the horn of moses or others think it takes its inspiration from the more pagan mythological tales perhaps of his youth and. they couldn't decide about it then and they still talk about it now. as he returned to russia in one nine hundred fifty and continued to work up until his death but there's still some debate over what actually kills him. now i've heard of going for before but never actually telling it but the lesson hasn't been one hundred fifty nine trips fell. on lennon's notice here and breathed his last. claiming one victim from the on the fray. and whether you believe it or not and certainly hasn't the artist's legacy.
7:53 pm
more than thirty years local children have learned to make handicrafts here carry on a tradition the tale. accentuates. nowadays there are around twenty five children taking classes here and he says on one of the most popular toys apparently all of the easiest to make. painstaking procedure. is preparation. detail of course believe it or not this is going to end up looking like. he said that look very abstract. fortunately alexander is
7:54 pm
a patient teacher and several of his students go on to become lost across. what children do here develops their taste for work because the toys reflect true electives ease some of the school's graduates a well known design is as a matter of fact this school serves as the basis of the development of a trade in objects of art many of our graduates pursue it as a main source of income. my coming was never going to end up in the shops but with a little tweaking from alexander i was pretty happy with my current. live. yeah. a super super quick with. very fast. play. it was starting to get
7:55 pm
late and we were still quite a long way from surround but fortunately alexander was able to point me in the direction of the rather special hotel. so the morning seems to be pretty amazing all to spoil i've heard that they're famous for their hospitality as well and this supposed to be a place right here where i can get a taste of that hopefully a bed for the it here. although i wasn't expecting it to be quite so busy. i'm still not on board with do you guest tomorrow the i'm going to take you through a secret is not all in the reach children is that these ancient ritual will protect you from evil spirits who you think you might shelter and happy yeah ok let's go i already was younger some of those definitely ready. the. way the. was.
7:56 pm
7:57 pm
the was. i was one time preaching. ariel martin may god grant you health and that is good about. me say that want to be pretty unique come for the night and get on marine tribal membership site on that note good nights well as they say morning. i think good and a good night's sleep. and shuffling my way around moldavia this is definitely a place to come if you've got energy to. bounce you'll also find a rich vein of local culture and a group of welcoming inspiring people to help while away those principles.
