Hi,
I love this forum and hopefully I'll learn a lot from it.
A little about myself . . . . . . .
I have been learning Russian for about 6 months. My teacher lives in Ukraine, I live in the UK. We speak once a week over the internet. My problem is I don't get a chance to practice with anyone as I don't know anyone who speaks Russian, which I feel is slowing my progress.
I work as a professional magician. I have traveled to Belarus 3 times over the past couple of years for a week at a time performing magic and balloon modelling shows for children in orphanages and hospitals, each time I've been I've hired a translator.
I'm going back again on 30th April for a 28 day tour, and this time I want to learn and speak as much Russian as I can. I use Skype and Hotmail. Please email me at magic@billywiz.biz if you would like to chat, or if you want to practice your English, I would really appreciete any help. Thank you. (I have also copied this post into your PenPals section)
