Description
This is a group for families who have adopted or will adopt from the Kamchatka Krai (Territory) or Koryak Okrug of Russia.
We can share information about our experiences adopting, the orphanages in Kamchatka, and help our children find other children from the same region. Petropavlovsk Kamchatsky is the major city in Kamchatka
Kamchatka Krai was formed July 1, 2007 as a result of the merger of Kamchatka Oblast and Koryak Autonomous Okrug, after a referendum. The administrative centre is Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky. The okrug retains the status of an administrative division of the krai under the name of Koryak Okrug.

Known as “The Land of Fire and Ice”, the Kamchatka Peninsula in Russia is home to some of the largest brown bears on the planet. Erupting volcanoes, hundreds of glaciers and thousands of lakes and rivers are where one quarter of the world’s Pacific Salmon come to spawn.
