Do you speak the Belarusian language in your everyday life?
No, I don’t speak Belarusian in my everyday life. Belarusian language is not popular. There are two state languages in Belarus: Belarusian and Russian. But in our everyday life we speak Russian. I think we should speak the Belarusian language more than Russian. We should promote speaking our language.

There are a lot of places of interest in Belarus: ancient towns, monuments and museums. They are our national heritage. Among the main Belarusian treasures we can mention the city of Nesvizh. The castle is associated with mysterious legends about lost treasures and ghosts. Two centuries ago there was one of the richest libraries and rich collections of arts and weapons. Now the castle is renovated and gathers tourists from abroad. Musical festivals are held in Nesvizh castle every year. So, I would advise to visit Nesvizh.
They say that Belarus is situated at the crossroads of Europe. Explain why.
The Republic of Belarus is situated in the centre of Europe and borders on Poland, Lithuania, the Ukraine and Russia. So, Belarus is situated at the crossroads of trade routes from west to east and from north to south. But the advantage of the country’s geographical position often turned into a disadvantage because Belarus was the arena of many wars and invasions.

- What historical places can you advise me to visit in England?
There are a lot of interesting places in England. In London I would advise you to see Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square and the Tower are also interesting. I think of that you should visit the City, the oldest part of London where you can see St. Paul’s Cathedral. I also recommend you to visit the Bridge of London, the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben. You can go to Hyde Park just to rest and see the Poet’s Corner. But the best look on the city is from London Eye.
- They say that the British are quite reserved. What do you think about it?
In Britain you will find most people are kinder to you if you behave politely, respecting local people and customs. You may sometimes upset people by things that you say or do, even if these things seem perfectly normal in your own culture.
The British are quite reserved in manners, dress and speech. They are famous for their politeness, self-discipline and specially for their sense of humor. Basic politeness (please, thank you, excuse me) is expected.
English people are very reserved. This means that they don’t talk much to strangers, and don’t show much emotion. A reserved person never tells you anything about himself. But the people of the North and West of Britain are much less reserved than those of the South and East. Most British people queue when they are waiting for a bus or waiting to be served in a shop. But during the rush hour, when a bus or train arrives, people often push forward to make sure they get on. This is called jumping the queue. British people keep their old traditions and are very proud of them. They are famous for their sense of humour. English people show great love for animals. And, of course, English people are fond of sports. Many continentals think life is a game; the English think cricket is a game. To many Englishmen cricket is both a game and a standard of behaviour. When they consider something unfair, they say “That isn’t cricket”.
