"I have a long history of relationship with literature. After all, I grew abroad, in Switzerland. And there reading is unpopular, especially in schools. Then we moved to Moscow, and first time I learned at least to somehow read and write in Russian. In the ninth grade I was transferred to the externalat, and then the great power of literature was opened. I was just lucky: I had a striking teacher who was postponed to the school program and showed me the best samples of literature. Then I realized that reading could be a real passion in life!
Put his hand to my literary education and my father. Through the works of Schopenhauer, no matter how it seemed strange, he gave me to understand what was a good book. The fact is that at that moment I was tormented by a very existential question, the answer to which I could not find a very long time, I was already angry myself and vulnered others. And then the father went with me to the bookstore, pulled out Tomik Shopenhauer and gave it to my hand. I then wondered: this uncle decided all my problems with one sentence! But the volume itself is three hundred with excess pages, this is how much interesting things can be found there!
So since I began to read a lot. This is my favorite pastime: I do not watch TV, I do not do sports. So I sit with the book all your free time.
I also love to read on vacation. And I have a couple of advice to those who are just now going on the summer holidays. When we are going to another country, stock either books of local authors, or works about the country visiting. We guarantee: emotions will be brighter, because your impressions will be echoing with the thoughts of the great world of this. Just do not overdo it. And I had one story: I went to the Dead Sea and so fascinated by the stories about Sodom and Gomorra, which even believed that somewhere nearby you can see a salt pillar that is called "Lot's wife". I remember the surprise of girls at the hotel's reception, when I started to get to the Salo Post, because I need to present the colors of Lot's Flowers.
