I am off to Moscow tomorrow morning for two weeks on an additional language course with other students. I hope 8 months of Russian classes will have paid off. I am excited and nervous at the same time. It is going to be lovely to finally see all those famous places like the Red Square and Bolshoi theatre. I think now I can put to rest this whole "Oh your name is Russian! Are you half-Russian?" talk that people in London are prone to saying to me. Don't ask why, but it happens quite a bit. Now I just need to remember how to say "Does this come in an extra small?" and "Make that vodka rain! ".
До свидания !
(it means goodbye: "dasvidania")
