I decided to spend the Christmas/New Year holidays in Moscow having only recently arrived here, it would be a nice change from being back in England. I attended a Chinese tea party to celebrate the new year, my timing leaving the house coincided with the elderly walking down to red square to celebrate the new year, it was like I’d walking into a OAP march with no room to move. I eventually managed to break away from the crowd and make my way to the meeting point where I would meet the others to head to the party, I was a little early so popped into a Kofe Khauz shop to drink my worst cup of coffee in Moscow to date. The tea party was great & we were there until early morning eating food, drinking different types of Chinese tea & chatting. This was definitely the first new years eve party I’ve attended where I’ve left the party in a better state than I first showed up.
Music was a mixture of ambient, techno, hip hop & various visuals mainly of people snow boarding in Moscow & Power of 10 with Gas – Microscopic as the sound track.
