Yesterday I spent the whole day in the forest on the outskirts of St. Petersburg picking berries and mushrooms.

Well, I didn’t manage to find not even one proper edible mushroom but anyway.

In this video you will see three popular types of berries that Russian love to gather in the forest. I’m talking about черника – blueberry, земляника – wild strawberry and малина – raspberry.
