From the South of Russia to Southern Europe and Back: A 10-Year Journey.

The heroine of our latest interview shares the thrilling adventure of her life! When she was young, influenced by the trend for learning English and studying abroad, she set off for Cyprus to get a taste of life “over there.”

But, as it turned out, orange trees and the southern European idyll could not replace her native Russian speech, warmth, and the understanding characteristic of our people.

The moral, in my view, is this: sometimes it’s worth listening to people who have already been abroad and returned home with new perspectives!
