What is your vision of Russia?

I heard that foreigners think that bears walk on the Red Square in Russia, and russian people drink vodka and wear ushanka caps (traditional Russian fur caps with ear flaps) :joy:
I personally associate Russia with a diverse nature. I really like to walk somewhere away from the city, in the forest, enjoy the birdsong and admire the beautiful scenery. Most of all I like to walk along the birch grove. I’m feeling the spirit of my country there and feel proud that I live in Russia.

Hi @JMD9 !))

I would like to know what people think about when they are asked about Russia. What kind of associations do people have with a country in which they, for example, have never been.

If they ask me about the UK, the first thing I think about is fog. If they ask about the USA, I will think about the Golden Gate, if they ask about Australia, I will think about eucalyptus and koalas.

Tell me, please, what is your vision of Russia?)

Hi @Lily_J :slightly_smiling_face:

In my opinion. Russia is a very large country, beautiful people, near to Japan :slightly_smiling_face: cold and certainly a very good place to visit. :slightly_smiling_face:

And please, what is your vision of Brazil?

Thanks in advance. :slightly_smiling_face:

Sometimes I’m studying Russian language.

Добрый день.:slight_smile:

Best regards.

Premise: I have never been to Russia and therefore I can only judge roughly.

My idea of Russia is that of a vast nation, full of natural environments to explore, with fascinating women, but dangerous because the drivers are reckless, the police is not very efficient and, above all, it is full of rich, arrogant and authoritarian autocrats.
