Popovka Ramensky District, Russia.
Joined a Yeshiva for three weeks one summer.

I was somewhere in Russia as a counselor in a kiruv camp. No idea where though. IT was about an hour out of Moscow

I'm willing to bet most have never stepped foot anywhere on Newfoundland. We took ferry and drove to Gros Morne National Park

Oh I thinking of a trip there soon (to Gros Morne), that's why I asked! Looks fantastic and not overrun by hoards of tourists. Mind if I PM you for info if the need arises?

Ok thanks. I see from your posts you get around to some cool places, not just the "standard DDF" Bora Bora Maldives resorts etc. which I'm sure is fun but not really adventurous.

Only boys half, girls half is still running strong.
For some reason guys heard Russia and thought cheap good vodka and late night bbqs and girls heard kiruv.
Strange thing

Boys join the camp in Ukraine.

Ok I just figured most people aren't too interested in a place like that. No Hyatt resorts nearby...

That's the beauty of a forum, those who aren't interested don't have to open a thread titled "Newfoundland Master thread"...

You have more options single. Now I go to more traditional DDF destinations.

Oh, I must have read the title wrong. I thought it was show off places you've been to.

But seriously, I might be the only one that made it to:
