"In general, the nature and landscapes of Kamchatka are very similar to the expanses of southern Siberia, the main difference is volcanoes. And there's an even bigger difference in climate. In Siberia, it is continental, because the air is dry, and in Kamchatka the humidity is high — because of the constant wind from the ocean, clouds and fog, the picture before your eyes changes every minute," says Denis Mukimov.
