What may be better then moutains? Only mountains!) Last summer was amazing. I want to share with you just a little part of my adventures %)) First of all I finished Higher Education, and at least was free %)) so I went at home (the small city in the South of Russia near the Azov sea) and could be with my family as much time as I want) I love my family very much in spite of my elder sister always lectures me %))) And we decided to have a trip by Dad's Jipp. My father has Kia, it's very good car, I think. We went to see Mt. Elbrus. This is an inactive volcano located in the western Caucasus mountain range in Russia. Mt. Elbrus's peak is the highest in the Caucasus. Really Mt. Elbrus has two peaks, which are different in 20 meters. The average height is about 5630 m. It is unreal %) We left our car at the camping and began to climp up the Mount. We were not professionals and haven't necessary equipment, our target was only to get a pleasure. Because the nature of the mountains is amazing. Shiny sun, blue sky and white snow. I clothed very easy, but I didn't feel any cold. Also I didn't feel any tiredness, I felt only a great joy! So I climbed and smiled, climbed and smiled))) You should to be there! And I'm sure, you'll understand me)))))

First notebook entry: Introducing myself Hi! I want to have more practice in English. I started to study English many years ago, but I'm not sure in my knowledges in it because I communicated with the native speakers very seldom. I was in Boston this May, and have some poblems with understanding what I was said/asked. It was rather sad. So I'll be very glad, if you can help me)) about myself - I live in Moscow, I graduated Moscow State University (Chemistrty Department) last year. Now i'm working at the big company. I like clever and joy people! So I like our planet, my country and love my husband =)) I think we can be good friends. And if you want to study Russian (what a surpruse), I'll be glad to help you. thank you!
