Woman in culture Hey everyone! Today I want to speak about woman's place in your culture. Many guys all over the world like Ukrainian girls, but not everyone may know what is the place of woman in the family here. Our girls usually independent, our mothers are wise and always can help in different situations. Our women became strong and powerful in the Middle Ages: their husbands were soldiers who spend many days in wars and women usually stayed at home with children, field and cattle. From that time we have a proverb:'Wife is a neck and husband is a head, when neck wants to turn in some place, head looks in that direction'. What about woman in your culture, family? I rarely get the answers to my questions(( People like to correct it instead((( And I would like to have dialogue, not monologue=)))))

Asking question Hello everyone! It's always interesting to discover for yourself the way of thinking of other people in the world or how do foreigners see Slavic countries. Here we usually like to joke about Soviet times when you can find some bears and vodka on the main streets - because people here think that it's the way other countries see us. But this myth came from one Soviet comedian that came to the USA and was popular there as stand-up comedian. He usually started his jokes with the words: “In Soviet Russia” and said that in Soviet Russia all is going vice versa. For example: In Soviet Russia TV watches you or In Soviet Russia toilet pee on you. Now I want to ask you to explain me this moment. What does mean all is going vice versa - maybe a person who said this just wanted to say that in Soviet Union another traditions or the way people live. And another people find this primitive explanations for this thought. I really don't understand this humor. Help me, if you do!

Physical activities Hello! I was walking in the park with my dog yesterday and I saw new benches near the lake - where you can just sit and dream on sunny days. There was also new simulator platform. There is no special building - just 10 or 12 trainers on the ares where grass used to grow. Today I decided to have some kind of physical training there. It was great to feel morning sun, fresh air and of course to feel that your body works! I used to think that people are lazy and they don't like to have physical activities at all! But I started to observe people in park - some of them were running, some having yoga practices and even some were swimming in the lake (It was near 15 degrees C in the morning)! I have my physical activities 3 times a week and I hope it helps me to have a good health, to be in a good mood and find new friends, who are interested to be healthy too! What kind of sport do you prefer? And why do you have your physical activities?
