I moved to Helsinki from Petrozavodsk, Karelia, to study law there and, of course, to experience life in a new setting! There I will share my thoughts and photos of daily life in Helsinki and Finland as a whole.

Keep calm and dance!

If someone asked me what dancing is when I was 12, I would say - performing! At that age I waited for every chance to go on the stage of the Republican Musical Theatre for rehearsal or performance, in the image of the butterfly/beattle/elf/whatever.

Then I was absolutely sure that dancing is about movements - learning them and repeating them, in a certain sequence which should better correspond to the musical rhythm.

If someone asked me know (okay, I will ask myself if no one wants to!) I would say that dancing is about feeling, inspiring, sharing warmth, emotions with audience and your fellow dancers, showing your inner world through your own interpretation of what you have learned. 

Seeing off our dear friends and fellow dancers from Jordan, I felt so sad but so happy at the same time. What a great example and inspiration I get from my friends, who travel thousands of kilometres to the foreign country to study the most difficult subject  - medicine - in one of the most difficult languages - Russian with just 10 months of basic preparation (progressing from the Russian alphabet to learning biology and chemistry in Russian). And in all those difficult periods of life sharing their energy, positive attitude to life, kindness with us.
