Myths, Stereotypes & Facts about Siberia
Oh Siberia!
Surrounded by so many myths and beliefs about Siberian people and Siberian culture. It was probably one of the last places on earth you would want to find yourself in. When I was young, Siberia meant three things to me.
- A remote place where bad and not so bad people were kept in exile.
- Siberian trains.
- Siberian migratory birds.
Was I wrong?
No. All three were right.
So then, what made people to jump and say “Oh no ! You going to Siberia?” when we announced that we were going to Siberia?
