"L'herbe est toujours plus verte dans le pré du voisin"
The grass is always greener in the neighbor’s field.
Anyway, Sveta, I observed that your opinion is largely shared among Russian people even if they claim that Russia is the best country. Last time I went to Russian consulate in Paris, a lady, who probably knows just Paris and Moscow told me: "What? You want a tourist visa for Russia? But it is not true! We will not give it to you. Nobody goes 7 times to Russia for tourism".
I love Siberia. I met, there, with wonderful people: Russians, Buriats, Nanais, Yakuts, Soyots. Svetlana you live on BAM. This is the most gorgeous civil engineering work of the XX century. I will never forget my trip, alone, from Taishet to Komsomolsk na Amure. Alone, I was not really... I was the first Frenchman (or veen Westerner) most of the people of the train have seen. Knowing no Russian words, I got many interviews Moreover, landscape is absolutely fascinating. I have, too, a permanent nostalgia of Yakutia in winter. I was 4 times on Baikal, the most fascinating lake of the World. I attented two expeditions to Saian mountains, no Westerner tourists there etc... Siberian wonders are just huged and not spoiled. They deserve consideration and admiration.
My only two nightmares for Siberia are mosquitoes and the horrible people of Russian consulate in Paris. I am truly allergic to these two species.
I join a pic of Munku Sardik. Such a place in French Alpes would be overcrowded
The second pic is to support your point regarding the fact that roads might be sometimes hard . .
