A Cosmonaut's Unexpected Encounter with Altai's Weather
Cosmonaut Konstantin Borisov, currently on vacation in Altai, shared his unexpected adventure with his followers. His friends had suggested Altai Republic, and he couldn't be more thrilled with his decision.
The region's allure extends beyond the usual summer days. The air is pristine, filled with the aroma of pine forests. The sights, sounds, and sensations are simply overwhelming, Konstantin revealed.
