Izba living

Minimalist level of creature comfort.

	The main house build just after the war from logs prepared before and still showing shrapnel marks from intense fighting in and near the village of Dubrovki
	The living room with a fireplace. Guests are reading Pravda newspapers from the 70s. The local publisher gave us a few boxes to be used as firestarter.  I'm caught in a dilemma: these papers are true fragments of history yet there is so much and no plausible use for them. Any ideas?
	The guest room behind the kitchen. A place to sleep, no more and no less.
	The bathtub in the kitchen, like in the pioneer days America.
	Authentic village style Russian sauna. Bring your own girls.
	An additional little house in the back, comfortably warm except in the middle of the winter. Sleeps two upstairs and two down.
	Not happy with any of the above? A tent is a possibility from May to September. We also have lots of caves in the hills over the Volga.
