AMERICAN CHRIS'
TULA, RUSSIA SCRAPBOOK





DR. RICH GETTING READY TO GO TO THE AIRPORT
LAWRENCEVILLE, GEORGIA - JUNE 25, 1998



In the summer of 1998, Dr. Rich and Traci and I visited Tula, Russia. We departed from Atlanta, Georgia on June 25th. Traci and I traveled through Amsterdam. Dr. Rich traveled through Zurich. We met in Moscow on June 26th. The purpose of our visit was to teach at the Department of Linguistics and Translation at Tula State University, but the trip was much more than that. We met some of the most wonderful people in the world and formed friendship that will last a lifetime. Our last day in Tula was July 23. Although my stay in Tula was less than a month, I'll never forget the good times I had. This online scrapbook is a record of my trip.
