Знакома с ним лишь по "Похитителям бриллиантов" ;)
Конечно. Думаю, такие произведения, как "Путешествие к центру земли" и "Вокруг света за 80 дней" знает каждый:)
Читала еще "Вокруг луны" ,"Лотерейный билет № 9672", "Таинственный остров".
Однако "Дети капитана Гранта" остается неизменно любимым произведением ;)

have a nice day =)
I really like this quote about the English character -the author compares it with the sea, I know you will probably like it- by E.M Forster:
"It has depths that do not reveal themselves at the first gaze. We know what the sea looks like from a distance: it is of one colour, and level, and obviously cannot contain such creatures as fish. But if we look into the sea over the edge of a boat, we see a dozen colours, and depth below depth, and fish swimming in the sea. That sea is the English character - apparently imperturbable and even. The depths and the colours are the English romanticism and the English sensitiveness. We do not expect to find such things, but they exist."
Well, I should be going to sleep, I have class tomorrow. It was a pleasure talking with you! Take care :)
True! And German sounds really difficult to me haha. It's so different from Spanish...
Haha yeah, I guess, people's character is the result of climate, culture and history. Are you in England? Wow, do you like it there? Do you miss Russia? In my university, we study a lot about English culture. I'm finishing my career in English Translation this year and I have learned quite a lot about the English character :)
Not really haha, I have partipated in competitions but in Argentina, not abroad, you have to be REALLY good at it in order to compete in other countries :P
Sounds nice! I see you are into Germanic languages. I'm more into Latin languages, I guess Russian would be the exception haha.
Yes! My great grandparents were Italian and French. Everybody says that Argentines are Italians who speak Spanish haha, we tend to be very expressive and passionate like they are... Have you been to other countries? :)
Tell me, what are your passions? Are you learning any languages at the time?
Definitely... I like artistic sports, I guess it's the only way I can express what I can't say with words :)
