Ice Swimming - la Russe - The Other Way

OK, you’ve been to the banya, picked mushrooms in the forest and maybe even ridden on the Trans-Siberian railway, but you can’t call yourself a true Expat in Russia until you’ve gone for a swim in a hole in the ice. It took me almost 30 years but I finally did it, so join me and the ice hole swimming enthusiasts to see what it’s all about, and then give it a go yourselves!
