Team of the project “Lessons of Survival”

Hello and welcome to live.ru

We are Alexander and Valery, the authors of the project and survival experts. The idea to create this site came to us back in 2010, when we both lived in Petrozavodsk and agreed on the basis of common interests in the local Society of Hunters and Fishermen. In chaotic discussions about the benefits of cartridges from various manufacturers and the exchange of tips on making your own stuffed black grouse, we decided that it would be great to document our ideas for posterity :)

So we began to collect notes and photos from our trips and scrupulously perpetuate old and new “useful tips” in the text.
