Journalist Miriam Elder Reflects on her Past Seven Years in Russia

The Guardian’s former Russian Correspondent Miriam Elder has left Russia for a new job in the US as Foreign Editor at BuzzFeed. Anchor Carol Hills speaks with Elder about her experiences reporting in Russia.

We’ve gathered highlights from her very active Instagram and Twitter feed, where she says, she can report the smaller stories from day-to-day life in Moscow that don’t necessarily make it into the newspaper.
