More about me:
When I was very little, my grandmother often told me the stories about other parts of the world. When I was eight, My mother bought me books about archeological discoveries - Pompei, Inca, Mesopotamia, Egypt, Silk Road, etc. I asked my grandmother to tell me the same stories over and over again. I re-read the books until I could picture these civilizations vividly in my head. When teachers asked the kids in class "What do you want to do when you grow up?", most of the kids then said "I want to be the president", "I want to be a teacher", or "I want to be a policeman". I said "I want to travel and see the world."
