- 2 days on the road I traveled to Bulgaria by car 5 years ago with family's of my brother. We passed 1900km during 2 days, visited 4 countries, had accident and many fan during the trip. I'll tell about this in the order. We were planning to visit Bansko for 2 years and each time something went wrong. We prepared route on the map, selected gas stations to buy petrol, define points of interest where we planned to stop and so on. We had a list of service stations with phone numbers for the case if car is broken. Our plans was on hold. Finally, at 2012 we got visas and assign start day for a trip. We tried to finish our route as fast as we can because we had a small children in the car and they couldn't sit on the same place for a long time. We changed drivers every 6 hours and drove non-stop. We stopped on gas stations, customs and in interesting cities only. We visited Romania, Ukraine and Moldova. We ended up in Bansco, Bulgaria after 45 hours on the road! We had road accident when we where driving back to Russia. I was driving at 100 km/h when car's wheel was blowed up. I was trying to hold car on the road but it started spin in 1 second. Finally I've stabilized the car and we drifted away from the road. Damage was less than I expected. We changed the wheel, and continue our trip. We had a luck because there was straightforward road without other cars. There was 500km left to our home so we didn't get any extra service. I've got a very invaluable experience how to drive a car in extreme situation.January 25, 201830
- Fantastic lesson I take English classes in my city. Today I went to the lesson and found out that teacher is sick. The administrator of the school exchanged the teacher. When I was entering in classroom I got the second surprise. I was only one student on the lesson. We tried to continue exercises from work book but I didn't have a pair in classroom. So we came down to free conversation for different topics. It was amazing and I would say, it has been the best lesson in that school. Teacher feels a good balance between free conversation and mistake corrections. He was writing down incorrect sentences or words without breaking me and then he showed the list to me during a break. Such kind of feedback helps very very much to ruin usual speaking patterns and understand your problem.January 24, 201860
- About cinema in my life I don't like to watch films too often. Usually I watch a new movie once per week. I don't have lovely genre but I definitely do not like horror. These films have a lot of blood and shocking scenes. But they are not really scare me. I think my favourite genres are action and thrillers. First time, I watch a film at home and if I like it, I go to cinema. I prefer booking tickets online over buying them at ticket office. I passionate about watching films on the big screen with good sound.October 8, 201431
Теория и практика вождения. Часть 4
Хотя впервые (сначала) я боялся ездить больше ста километров в час, мне удалось достичь этой скорости, так как сегодня был первый урок вождения в автошколе (The sentence correct but I don't understand what do you mean here?). Формат урока таков - один ученик сидит за рулём, а другой сидит за спиной, наблюдая за действиями молодого водителя. Это помогает ученикам понять ошибки при вождении, которые делают их сверстники.
Я первым сидел за спиной, потом через час мы поменялись, и я вывел машину из (better: выехал с) автостоянки церкви. Мне тогда было очень напряженно (nobody say like this. Better: тяжело) быстро достичь высокой скорости, потому что я не хотел потерять контроль над машиной (конечно, вот это страх).
Учительница при этом болтала на разные темы и шутила с нами. Удивительно, но при отсутствии реального опыта я всё таки мог сосредоточиться и на дороге и на словах учительницы.
Потом она узнала, что я говорю на русском (better: по-русски). Она рассказывала мне о том, как ее усыновили сербские родители, которые переехали жить на Украину, потом поселились в США. Естественно, она понимает украинский язык, но не говорит на нём. А как-то тема перешла на ситуацию на в Украине. Я поделился с ней своими взглядами и выводами, которые образовались после изучения истории, статьей и взглядов разных людей и сторон (украинская, русская и западная).0 votedMay 1, 20141
