My name is Sean Hennessy and I'm a happy-go-lucky Irishman living and working in Siberia. My job is a consultant director for a Siberian development company and we now have a restaurant and bar.
Guess what? I'm introducing "River Ice Dance" here, yes it's true, a spectacle here in the wilds of the Russian tundra. We're also training Russian Irish dancers and creating a Cossack Irish community. In fact I'm trying everything possible to bring home from home to the icy wilds here.
In the bar one month ago I introduced Quiz Night. They have seen nothing like it and now we have 25,000 ruble prize money. How much in real money you ask? 400 euro, or thereabout.
My son was born here and we celebrated his second birthday last week. He has a Russian passport to go along with his Irish one. His official name on the Russian passport is, Daniel Seanavich Hennessy.
AVICH is like our O', meaning son of. Son of Sean eh? I'm well made up with that.
Well, thanks for reading and I sure do miss home. Took advantage of the block e-mails sent by the department, so please forgive me if my little sharing from the other side of the world is too random for you.
God bless you all and think of that little green corner in Siberia which I call Ireland.
Yours truly,
Sean Hennessy
Siberia, Russia
