I grew up under Communism so we could only learn Russian and then when Communism fell in 1989 we could learn a few more things and have the freedom to travel and the freedom of speech - and the freedom of dreaming really.
Friends are very important to me and I have always had many of them. There are probably many reasons why this is so but two seem to me more valid than any of the others I am a naturally friendly person and I hate to be alone.
