Look at Yarfor.me to visit the Russian city of Yaroslavl, a town in North-West Russia.

Yaroslavl is a provincial town with a lively social life including street poetry, rock bands and free wi-fi.

September 1st is a holiday in Russia and also the first day of the new school year. Yaroslavl celebrated with an outdoor festival where every child released a balloon into the air. You can see photos of the event on this post.
