The Metro

June 27th, 2019 by Steven Duncan

I live on the outskirts of the city in an area called Kotelniki. Agape provides guest housing so I have a bedroom and access to a kitchen, WiFi, and a washer (laundry is air-dried on a rack here). We are conveniently connected to the main city by a metro station and it takes about 30 minutes to get to the center. Because of that, I spend at least an hour a day on public transport traveling to and from the clinics. The Moscow metro system is really beautiful. Some stations are more richly decorated than others but many have old Soviet art on display, especially in the center of the city. I can’t stop taking pictures of it.

“Moscow…how many strains are fusing
in that one sound, for Russian hearts!
What store of riches it imparts!” – A. Pushkin
