The third and final part of Ivan Bunin’s “Rusya” reveals not only the quiet, inevitable end of first love, but also how a mother’s illness can cast a long, lasting shadow over her daughter’s entire life — shaping her fate, her choices, and the fragile echo of what might have been.

Another part 2 topic for the Summer. I also have part 3 example answers on my website.


“Well, as I live in a very busy city, I sometimes really need to escape the noise, and crowds, as well as finding a place where I can just chill out and relax in peace.  My favourite place to go is a small cafe which is about 3 kilometres from my home, and only takes me about 10 minutes to get to on my motorbike. The cafe is located in the suburbs on an extremely beautiful lake, surrounded by many different kinds of trees, and is a world apart from the busy city centre.

 

I try to go there at least 3 or 4 times a week, and usually bring my laptop with me, as I find I can be very productive in this peaceful environment, and get lots of work done, in a short space of time. I love being able to sit at a quiet table outside on a perfect sunny day, with the many trees to shade me from the hot sun. I’m also able to sit right on the bank of the lake, with a view which is out of this world.

 

I guess the main reason I love to go to this place is because it’s just so quiet and peaceful, and I can get away from all the noise, as well as the hustle and bustle of the city centre, which sometimes drives me crazy. Another reason I like to go to this place is that I find the tranquil environment really, both inspires and motivates me in my work….. And I’m able to be much more productive than I would be if sitting in a noisy office or a busy city centre coffee shop. So…yea, this is a quiet place i love to go to.

Todo el mundo sabe que los actores son personas supersticiosas. Una de esas supersticiones es que no les gusta que las personas les desean suerte, entonces…. ¿Qué cosas deseamos a los actores? Les deseamos mucha mierda, y en el episodio de hoy te cuento el origen de esa expresión, a la vez que te comento algunas otras cosas que los actores de teatro no hacen nunca.

Espero que disfrutes el episodio.
