Gagarin’s Anniversary to Be Celebrated in Ulan Bator with an Intellectual Competition


02.02.2011

As a part of the First in Space campaign, the Russian Center in Ulan Bator will hold an inter-collegiate round of the intellectual game “What? Where? When?” The main theme of the game will be Yuri Gagarin’s flight on the Vostok spacecraft.

The first round of the game was held in November 2010. Teams from the Ulan Bator branches of Plekhanov Russian University of Economics and East Siberia State Technical University (two teams) participated. For the upcoming round, a new team will be participating – students from the Urals branch of Plekhanov Russian University of Economics – via a video link.

In the book, Marco recounts his personal odyssey, narrating each stage of his life as a foreigner in Russia—starting from the initial fascination to the process of cultural assimilation, venturing into business, fostering authentic friendships, and ultimately, reaching a deep sense of identifying as a Russian at his very core.
