I had my first ever Russian Tea party last night and it was truly delightful in every sense of the word. We had Russian cheesecakes and Raisin cakes and tea served in special china cups. It was to mark the end of my most recent efforts to learn Russian, my girlfriend is Russian so I thought I should make a effort to learn her language, even if it takes a while. The learning of this new and spectacularly difficult language was softened somewhat by the lovely lady from Belarus who was teaching us. She is the kind of person who makes everyone around her want to stay around her.
I have been Fascinated with Russian culture ever since I got back back from America last summer where I was taking part in the Camp America . A strange place to become immersed in all things Russian you might wonder but that is where I met my girlfriend and that kinda formed the basis of my interest in that culture, that and the Vodka. Anyway should probly get back to practising my Russian days of the week.
Das Vedania!
