Grandfather Stepan, Martyan and Mamelfa, or Russian Old Believers in Bolivia

Дед Степан, Мартьян и Мамелфа, или русские староверы в Боливии

Do you believe in miracles? Can you imagine that today on the planet somewhere in the tropics you can find pre-revolutionary Russia? Such a Russia, where men walk around in embroidered shirts, women in sundresses weed gardens, working among pineapples, so that the bathhouse is melted with coconut peel, and alcohol is made from mango or papaya. Do not rush to say no, because this is exactly the kind of Russia Sergei Yastrzhembsky and his team discovered in the tropics of Bolivia.
