Esso, Kamchatka

Most of Kamchatka's inhabitants grew up on the Russian mainland, moving to the peninsula during the Soviet period when the wages here were much higher. Although the peninsula is nearly the size of France, its population is only 400,000 -


three-quarters of whom live in the capital, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky.
