Kaleidoscope

Two months living in a country are not enough to find and understand everything. But things seem more accessible when two nations have a common history. Partially common!

Among the shared things, here I found the game of şotron, which was moved on the map with the same rules and the same chalk drawing, Klasiki!!!, and the true meaning of a sta smirnă (standing up straight), that I often heard when I was a kid.

Memories! Waiting for the bus, you have time to count how many Lada swipe in front of your eyes, on the boulevard. Grandfather's Lada! A car where you can clearly see even the driver's eyes! And Niva! And tram with controller!

Now I think that people who are connected with nature understand in another way walking, space, time needed to move. Even the notion of park they seem to understand it differently. Smolensk is a city full of vegetation, in an exciting way. Zinnia, marigold, thistle keep you in an atmosphere like home, Romania. Also, you must drink melissa tea ... with someone, next to the samovar.

Here everything is ascending or descending. Around the Kremlin, nothing concentric, as you would expect to be: hills and valleys, streets or neighborhoods up or down, but nothing concentric. Even the community itself feels this principle of going up and going down.

Locals who tell you the rules of the house, owners who own, grandparents who have life experience and tell you that!!!

After two months, I know that dreams and aspirations have their own chair and their own rights! To be happy it is enough to select the things and aspects that matter to you, aspects that you need! It is easy to select two months in the country of pianos and ballet!
