Hermann

Do you know you have a pirate ancestor? His name is Stenka Razin!

This is the song:

And this is the story and the translation of the song: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stenka_Razin

Welcome aboard! Or should I say Dobro pozhalovat'?

Stenka! Yes, he was actually one of my inspirations for this kit. A very intriguing man, he must have been.

Prozhu, bud'laska. My Russian is extremely rusty, and your welcoming is warming, so cheers!

How will you ever ride the horse in a boarding action? Ah! I have it! It's a seahorse! Welcome aboard, mate!

The only way we know how!

Thanks for the welcoming.

Welcome aboard Cossack

Thank you!

Laskavo prosymo! I have a friend that reenacts Cossack on horseback. Welcome aboard, Mate!

Ah, za zdorovja.

That's awesome. So few do that. Good for him!

Thank you!

Welcome aboard!

Thank you!

Welcome Hermann! A Cossack pirate now that's a new spin. ;-)

Thank you. I must say it's quite an interesting kit to explain to people, but fun nonetheless.

Wonderful!

Hello everone,

I am Hermann the cossack. I pillage the Turkish coast with me fellow cossacks from Syech Zaporozhye.

Seriously though, I'm from Canada. Part of my ancestry is Ukrainian, so obviously I have taken an interest in my cossack past. Me mateys and me reenact a cossack crew who raid Ottoman settlements across the Black Sea. Besides that, I work, lift weights, study, et cetera.
