Vologda Region [01:01]
The Vologda Region, in the north-west of Russia, is a land of forests and lakes. Since the old days it's been one of Russia's hidden places. The Moscow Tsar used to keep the treasury of the Russian state here. Monks and icon painters used to go to Lake Beloye to keep faith with their traditions. Pilgrims from all over the world come to Vologda and Goritsy, to honour Cyril and Therapont, to experience peace of mind and to seek truth and wisdom. The people of Vologda maintain the customs and traditions of the Russian north. Every summer different generations gather here to preserve these time-honoured rites. However, in the north winters are long and occupied with lengthy hunting trips and adventures. Father Frost, the Russian Santa Claus, welcomes children and adults alike to his Vologda mansion.

Vevcani carnival 2012 Вевчански карневал [04:45]
One of the most famous village festivals held in the Balkans is the Vevcani Carnival. It is believed that the custom is over 1400 years old. It is based on old Pagan beliefs and rituals. Essentially the Carnival is the ritual of calling after Saint Basil the Great, which coincides with the Twelve Days of Orthodox Christmas and the Orthodox New Year. The festivity is held on the 13th and 14th of January every year The participants of the Carnival are known as Vasilicari. 14 January 2012 (MIA) - A group mask created by the inhabitants of Vevcani reflecting Macedonian-Greek relations was the most talked about mask among visitors of this year's Vevcani Carnival. Other masks included US president Barack Obama, a "Flying to Europe" mask, the hand of VMRO-DPMNE, etc. Scenes from cowboy movies were re-enacted and Tito's Pioneers, Muslim priests, dead people paraded through the village of Vevcani. This year, Macedonian politicians were spared, there were no masks making fun of any local politician. Opening the carnival, Culture Minister Elizabeta Kanceska-Milevska said all well-intentioned visitors with a carnival spirit were part of an unique satire reminding us of events and persons who had marked 2011. "The Vevcani Carnival offers a game without protocol. It is a valuable pearl in the Macedonian tradition and a brand which makes Macedonia famous in the world. This carnival is being celebrated with a sense of preserving a valuable sample of the Macedonian tradition that amazes ...

(additional equipment included; satellite phone, shovel, first aid kit, hi-jack, GPS) The Trip: Our initial thoughts for travelling was to join a larger group of fellow travellers from an off-road society, however, due to limited number of entrants and based on our past experience -- we decided in the end, to make it up on our own, a second trip to the Kola Peninsula in northern Russia. From our first Russian trip, we had managed to save some maps providing great granularity of the territory information, combined with our own research and digital equipment -- we not only got great insight of the field and routes but made several key outtakes for waypoints navigating us in the rough nature. The journey started off from Sweden, we took the boat to Finland, and from there we moved, quite aggressively driving, to Salla. Salla, a city in northern Finland, which is situated close to the border to Russia. After an overwhelming time of waiting and going through custom and inspection -- we entered into Russian territory in less than 38 hours. In short, our journey ...
