Point my mistakes and add some idioms where needed, please
When I look at these photos one episode comes to my mind. In our hostel we met a French guy, we were chatting all the time, 2 hours in the bus, 2 hours in a queue, 4 hours while climbing the mountains. So I really can say my favorite quote: 1 day spending in a trip can be better for know someone than 1 month in casual life. So once we climbed and the view was spectacular, he said: “ by the way, guys, let’s share stereotypes about our countries. And there he go. ( or and there we go ) He told that one of stereotypes was that most of russian people make squats while eating sunflowers seeds, they are jobless and a bit dangerous. He couldn’t remember the name of this word. We were staring at him for a while and asked surprisingly: “Gopniki ?? “ He declaimed: yes, exactly. I couldn’t believe that was one of stereotypes, but here it is. I wanted to give him a dose of his own medicine when it was my turn to tell about stereotypes of France, but I couldn’t remember nothing offensive just I mentioned lack of masculinity of men ( actually, I don’t think so. I have never been to France. Haha) and that they are frogeaters. Actually Chinese are frogeaters as well. So my revenge turned out into the failure. And then I realized that many years ago some of my foreign friends told me they were preoccupied about their trip to Russia because they’ve read some articles about many dangerous blocks in Moscow and Saint Petersburg. But here I should make a quick remark. Those guys were from Brazil and Colombia. The “safest” countries in the world....
So while I step down from the mountains I was thinking about the country of gopniks, beautiful mountains and breathtaking views, I was thinking that Huangshan mountains were not entertaining enough for me because just to step up is completely boring. Camping and skiing is what I like to do while I am in the mountains. The only one challenge there was the path up of 4 hours about 10 km. I looked at these mountains and missed my lovely Elbrus.
