My purpose of this program is learning about history, food culture and rich nature in Russia. I was able to learn about them more than I thought.

First, I was surprised by the beautiful streets lined with houses. It had colorful and complicated patterns. Even out of those, Saint Isaac’s Cathedral took my breath away. the inside of that was painted the stories in the Old Testament. It had a mysterious and sacred atmosphere. Also, when walked up the stairs we saw the unending historical buildings in St. Petersburg. I found why people wanted to keep and maintain this beautiful scenery, and how much efforts people made to hand down to the next generation.

Next, I enjoyed Russian foods. Borsch was so delicious and warm my cold body.

Last, we learned the relation between human and nature. Russia has huge and rich nature near the city. Therefore, many wild animals get lost in people society and there is the problem of atmospheric pollution. People make some efforts to prevent them like protecting animals and setting a limit on exhaust gas. Japan has same problems, so we need to think about them with using this measure in Russia for reference.

I think that I was able to obtain my life’s nourishment through this experience, so I want to share with my friends and continue to learn the culture of Russia.
