I always look forward to Discovering Russia. Brown's narrations are informative and entertaining. Rick Steves has nothing on James Brown.

This is one of the better episodes. The Snow Maiden's house looks like it's right out of the fairy tale.

Anyway, how can anyone not like a travel program that features an Iggy Pop song in its promos (The Passenger)!

I visited Kostroma back in 1999. It was a very pleasant trip. I recognized many of the places. It was amazing. Would love to go back.
