Hello, all...

I just joined this forum because I have developed a very deep interest in Russian culture and history, and am continuing to learn things about Russia. I am planning to sample a variety of Russian food, as it all looks delicious, and I am enjoying Russian music, both Soviet-era and also modern popular music. I am going to attempt to also learn Russian, but the process may be slow for me personally, as I have never before studies to learn another language. I would one day in the future like to visit Russia, if it becomes possible. In any case, I hope to make some new friends here.
