Russian Party

The notorious Russian Party… Instead of hosting a national Russian week, the Russians organized a whole day filled with Russian culture. In the morning everybody could enjoy blini’s with salmon caviar, meat or cheese, during the day there was Russian music played in the bar area, in the late afternoon there were even Russian movies, and at 10pm we had the fantastic party.
The party was great and the organization (amongst others housemates Irina and Timur) did a fantastic job!! The beautiful chateau that also hosted the Bain party was lighted purple, we were greeted by dancers and trays full of vodka. Inside there was champagne, followed by more vodka with either coke, orange juice or straight up. Stolichnaya animated the event with a busload of blond girls who walked around with trays of vodka or even bottles of vodka all night, to make sure all glasses were constantly filled. Besides a mix of music (Russian, Indian, 80ies, pop etc) we were entertained by two stage dancers, a fantastic ballet, and even President Vladimir Putin who came all the way from Moscow to comment on the Russian – French relations. So, thanks to the Russians who treated us to a great party! We can only look forward to repeat this event somewhere next year in Moscow!!
