Well, it's my first entry. I've wanted to find a network like this for many months and, anyway, I did it :)
A bit about me - I'm from Russia, was born in St. Petersburg, but I've been living in Moscow for seven years. I'm 18 years old. I like Irish dancing (both set and solo), fitness, reading, programming and math. Nowadays I'm a student of Moscow State Institute of Mathematics and Electronics, and I hope to be a programmer.
Why am I learning English? It's an international language, so I could communicate with people all around the world. Also, most of the literature about my future profession is only in English - so, it's necessary to know and understand English.
Of course, I am taking English lessons in the Institute and I've had it before at school. But during the last 4 years I have mostly learned the language by self-studying (reading, watching films, listening to the music, communication). And I really hope, that this network will help me with learning English and that I will be able to help those who want to learn Russian.
