Blogs on Russian / Russian Blogs

[blackxlupin.livejournal.com]

Hi everyone,

Reading blogs like All Japanese All the Time or Japanese Level Up really motivates me in my study of Japanese. I'm looking for something similar in Russian - a blog about learning Russian, with a lot of discussion of methods and motivation and sometimes cultural aspects.

Does anyone of a Russian language learning blog similar to the ones mentioned above for Japanese? It can be written in English or Russian (or French, Italian or Spanish), I don't mind.

Failing that, what are you favorite blogs written in Russian, with just plain interesting content? I'm interested in all sorts of things, barring economics and current events.

Thanks!

Try llorax. She is an American living in Russia, and not in a city, but in a small village. She knows her Russian, but maybe she can motivate you with her stories. She writes either in Russian, or in both, providing a self-translation. Her blog is fairly new so you can start at the beginning.
