Full suitcases: what Americans take in large quantities from Russia

The New Year is already upon us - a time of travel and gifts, and sometimes adventures, writes the author of the blog “South of Paradise” on "Yandex Zen". That is exactly what the inhabitants of other countries, for example, America, think. They want to experience new emotions, sensations. Therefore, they often go abroad for the holidays.

And one of the countries where they go is Russia. Among the Americans, our country is always associated with cold, winter ... sometimes vodka and bears.

They never miss the opportunity to buy our souvenirs.

Although for us these are not souvenirs at all, but ordinary household items.

Let's make this very top item for a resident of the United States.

Gingerbread cookies and sweets by the type of Alenka

For many, this will be a discovery, but in some countries abroad chocolate is absolutely not tasty. I would even say - tasteless.

Therefore, the Americans, having once tasted our sweets, no longer want to return to their usual chocolate, filled with all kinds of dyes and additives. They are buying up almost whole shelves in stores, hoping to bring the Russian snacks to their homeland. And treat all relatives.

Bath accessories

Russian bathhouse is a real pleasure room for foreigners.

At first they do not understand what is happening. But then do not drag them by the ears. And they are eager to arrange the same bathhouse in their home.

But bad luck, in the US they will not find bath kits. All these brooms, mittens, washcloths, oils. This is just not for sale.

Therefore, on the Russian border, border guards always laugh when they open their suitcases. And there the whole department is filled with all kinds of bath appliances.

Felt boots and mittens

Winters are really cold here. And we used to dress warmly.

Of course, young people now don’t put on boots, give them all ugg boots. But the old generation often wears echoes of the Russian past.

There are various very beautiful gift mittens with patterns. It is them that Americans love to buy for gifts.

These souvenirs, it seems to me, are bought most often by US residents.

Perhaps there is something else that I have not mentioned?
