"I have a great time in Russia since the beginning of my trip around the world this is my favorite country. The people here are very hospitable, they talk to me, inviting home, and I like it - the traveler said. - I'm not a tourist, do not go to watch historical sites and monuments that are dead. I stop to chat with real live people. Russian people are quite friendly, but drivers are a little crazy, so I need to be careful. "
As it turned out, Tony Mangan knows a few words in Russian: "Princess" (his favorite word), "Angel", "thank you" and "hello", and for communication uses Google translator, while maintaining the program translated from English into Russian issues and phrases which he uses most often. Many, by the way, are written with humor. For example, when meeting with a girl he could call her back to walk to Mongolia with him.

She said that if she had gone earlier to the doctor, she could have been alive today. So my message I want to convey to people - you need to diagnose cancer as early as possible, so we should go to our doctors and get checked, it will save your life! ".
Tony Mangan started walking on February 27 from Dublin. The whole trip will take him about 3 years. " So far it is almost 4 months, about 10 percent of the way" - he said.

"Where will I go next, I will decide soon, But, probably, it will be Cambodia, then maybe I will go on to Singapore, Australia and New Zealand, and then - in Japan, the United States and back to Europe ", - he told about the plans of Tony. Every day he walks about 42 km, sometimes 50-55 km.
Tomorrow Tony continues his global walk. "We will accompany him beyond Kazan, about Chistopol. After that, other guys Tatarstan will support him to the border with Bashkiria ", - said Ildar Vafin.
It should be noted that Tatarstan next year had planned an interesting project. "We want to run through the north from Kirkenes (Norway) via Murmansk to Nakhodka. By the time it would take 286 days. This will happen in about a year, until then the need to solve a lot of problems, including material and technical issues ", said Ildar Vafin.
