Welcome to Nogliki!
Nogliki (Russian: Но́глики) is a city on the island of Sakhalin in the Russian Far East, roughly 2/3 up the island. The name is a canny reference to the booming oil business here as it's derived from the indigenous Nivkh word noghl-vo which means 'smelling-village'. Around 10,000 people live here, and as the intro might suggest, it's one of the main population centers for the Nivkh tribe.
