    🇷🇺 Greetings from the republic of Chuvashia in deepest Russia where I went on a hunt for the little known European language of Chuvash. And as usual on the way I met some real characters. Get ready to meet Yuri Alexandrovich, Chuvashia's most dapper gentlemen.

      A journalist is anyone who (as a profession or not) keeps and publishes a journal of real events. What keeps Bald from being considered a journalist is only his focus on random encounters rather than current events with wider significance.
