Admittedly Skipping Alarm Clocks, Putin Preferring To Wake Up Without Artificial Prompt
Feelin' Fresh: Your Go-to Guide on Putin's Mornings and Kremlin Digs
Russian President Vladimir Putin prefers the ol' fashioned method when it comes to waking up—no alarm clocks for this cat, mate! That's right—he usually rises on his own, as noted during an interview with Pavel Zarubin and reported by Rossiyskaya Gazeta.
However, if some serious business is brewing, his crew will give him a buzz in advance (can't blame a president for sleeping through a crisis, right?). As Putin put it, "Sometimes the guys call if something is very urgent—I ask the adjutants to call. But, as a rule, I wake up on my own." Tie your shoes, brush your teeth, and you're all set for a day in the life of a Russian leader.
Now, let's talk home sweet home: Putin's Kremlin apartment has been the backdrop for high-profile meetings with the big dogs on the global stage. He's hosted Chinese President Xi Jinping and ex-US President Bill Clinton under his very own roof. Keep your eyes peeled for the upcoming documentary film, "Russia. Kremlin. Putin. 25 Years," featuring a tour of this political powerhouse (er, we mean apartment).
In a friendly chat, Putin also admitted that, throughout his 25 years in power, he'd never pondered why he's in charge or what it all means. Fancy that!
So there you have it: a glimpse into Putin's prime-time routine and a peek into his Kremlin hideout. And, as always, don't forget to tune in for the premiere of the film dedicated to Putin's inauguration on May 4! Catch ya later!
- Vladimir Putin, in his personal growth journey, has never contemplated why he's in power or what it all means, despite spending two and a half decades in office.
- On the other hand, when it comes to his lifestyle, Putin maintains a simple routine, waking up naturally without an alarm, and, if necessary, being alerted for urgent matters that demand his attention. Though his home-and-garden, the Kremlin apartment, has hosted some of the world's most influential leaders, Putin's approach to education-and-self-development seems focused on living authentically rather than intellectually pondering his position.
