Champions League Final
The pulse of the city changed quite drastically yesterday as Man U and Barca fans crowded the streets, waving around their banners and chanting songs in restaurants, near monuments, and on the streets.
As the time of the game approached, a group of 15 of us from the school attempted to find a place to sit [...]

Меня зовут Андрей
Доброго времени суток.
Со школой познакомился совершенно нежданно, после окончания ВУЗа и в разгар мирового экономического кризиса, когда старая работа уже закрылась, а вероятность трудоустроиться на новую была сведена к минимуму.

How quickly will I learn Italian?
It’s a question everybody seems to ask. I asked the same thing before and after I got here, it always went something like this:
“how long before I can have conversations?”,
