Huliganov’s Turkish Experience #1 – Arrival
Original playout date: 26 January 2008
Duration: 14:56
The beginning of a new series and this time Huliganov gets to know a completely new country. The Huliganov’s Turkish Experience in total is in fact three separate trips close to each other in time. This is the first time a multi-trip to a country makes up a single series. I didn’t really do that for the American series but in the future this idea is done on much larger series for example the Czech series which goes over 100 parts and the Russia series which I still don’t know how may it will be, but could also get close to that number.

Bengali wrestles wife, wife tries to get kit off on camera!
Original playout date: 24 January 2008
Duration: 6:46
I suppose the provocative title is the main reason for the 20 thousand views, but then again it is quite an amusing, if blurry, battle of wills between my wife and our Bengal kitten (then kitten, now 11 year old cat) Pushkin. As well as a chance to hear some Russian.

Huliganov’s Finninsh Experience #6 – Kerimaki
Original playout date: 14 January 2008
Duration: 6:23
This Finnish series has some of the most beautiful but also some of the saddest moments I had managed to reproduce in film to this point. The last one was one of the most beautiful and this is now one of the saddest. To see churches which in the past were thriving in the state they now are is heartbreaking really.
I went to Finland once … it was shut. At least, the biggest wooden church in the world, kerimaki, was closed, and not only was it not open right now but also there were no indications when the services might be.

This is one of my personal favorites among the videos I have made. It contains two very beautiful pieces of music and on top of that the photographs I made with my new camera from America land. You can see the song with the unpronounceable name in the table below.

Huliganov’s 2nd North American Experience #11 – In Angelo’s Electronics Shop
Original playout date: 10 January 2008
Duration: 5:54
A look at New York by night and also on 55th street which seems a bit like London’s Tottenham Court Road in that you can buy various electronics goods. I bought a camera, and it turned out to be less good than I expected, you’ve already heard the crackly audio. In the end I didn’t use it for long.
