Okay, so we’ve already talked a lot about Vladimir Putin and his remarkably swashbuckling one-liners in an earlier post . But during our research on the Russian President on the Internet, we saw a lot of memes and puns directed at Putin’s surprisingly varied outdoor interests and multifaceted personality. While it’s at times amusing to see the President of a superpower behave like a Mexican cowboy, it is always inspiring to see him be his real self and try anything and everything under the sun!
