My summer in Spb

This summer I have practiced drawing and painting practice in Saint Petersburg. It lasted three weeks. We have visited a lot of museums and different and beautiful places of the Russian Empire time. I remember a very long line to the Hermitage — in front of us were standing people from Europe, speaking a language that I didn't recognize, and behind us were standing another other foreign tourists. I was so excited and felt like I was in another country.

Some russian people often use the word “pardon” for excuse and it was funny when one man in Pushkin town said “pardon” to us and he was really French.

I've saw seen Chineses, Japaneses, Americans and many other people. And then I realized how hard it is to visit Russia if you don't understand Russian — so few translated signs and pointers boards, so many bad-mannered people.

Anyway, it was an interesting and exciting time. This October we had an exhibition in our academy with the best of our works (there of them were mine too). And watching it I have remembered some pleasant moments of my summer again.
