Мой друг перо Миша Инин однажды он пригласил меня в Россию. Я был действительно взволнован. Я не знаю много о России, и это было очень интересно для меня, чтобы посетить его. Странные вещи начали происходить с самого начала. Когда приехал в Россию, никто не встретил меня в аэропорту, я ждал и ждал, но никто не пришел. рассердился мой друг и решил купить билет и лететь домой. Но перед этим я хотел покинуть аэропорт и смотреть на русский город. В следующий момент я был в узкие и грязные улицы. Воздух был плохой, и запах был ужасный. Там не было никаких машин, но я видел много лошадей. Народ напугал меня. У них были хмурые лица, и их одежда была грязной. Я заблудился и пришлось остановиться. Затем открыл окно, и груда мусора упала на мою голову. Место было очень странным. Я была в шоке andwanted, чтобы позвонить в полицию. Наконец, я нашел человека, который выглядел как солдат. Я говорил с ним на русском. Но он ответил на английском языке! Я спросил солдата О полиции, но он не понимал меня. Было темно и холодно и я не знаю, что делать. "Дайте мне поесть!" Я сказала солдату. нет еды для нищих, но мне нужен слуга, ответил. "Я-один из рыцарей королевы Елизаветы. У меня есть секретная миссия в этот грязный город Эдинбург и мне нужен умный мальчик, как ты"Элизабет! Эдинбург! Я подумал:"эти русские шутки очень странные. Но я решил не показывать свои чувства и сказала солдату: "я буду рад стать вашим рабом"хорошо", - ответил он. "Я остаюсь в этой гостинице. Чистить моего коня, стирать мою одежду и готовить ужин. Вот немного денег". Я ничего не делал, но я использовал эти деньги. Я купил немного хлеба и супа. Еда была не очень вкусная, но я был голоден и должен съесть его, когда солдат вернулся домой, он был очень зол. Он бил меня! После этого мне пришлось готовить обед для него, и он лег спать. Ситуация не смешная, хотела позвонить маме и папе, но не смог найти никаких телефонов. Тогда я решила пойти спать, но нет для меня кровати. Мне пришлось спать на полу.
