EFA Book1 published!

Image
Hey there, my BC project book EFA "English for Academics" Book1 is ready!  I'm really happy as it took me two stressful and nervous years (2012-2015) to take part in this project. Today, at BC Moscow (28.08.14), there was a presentation of the book. I arrived 1,5 hours before and, to my great surprise, I could see the whole team (7peole) sitting together in a lobby room duscussing sth. I was amazed and greeted all of them - Rod, Sveta, Luidmila, Vasya and othhers, I even managed to listen to the presentation of the book. Anyway, great job! I'm the author and it's the Cambridge University Press (CUP) publishing house. I'm happy and proud, Hooray!

It's a pity, but te flies! It's already 1,5months we've been here, in SF. It was an amazing vocation an I owe it to Olia and Andy, who made it unforgettable! Love you and my little Angel - Yana!!! Look at some pics made at the Steaming Brewery and Sturn Grove park:

Playa del Carmel and Tulum in Mexico

Image
Hey there, here we are in Eastern Mexico, Caribian sea. The place is called Playa del Carmel and it is a small resert on the Caribian Sea. The flight took us 5,5 hours from SF so it's quite far from California. The sea is amazingly beautiful and the sand is white and very fine. We've been to Tulum, which is the old Maya settlement. You can see only ruins there now, but they are well preserved by Mexican  are nice but rather short and staut...It is very hot here and Slava has problems in such weather. We live in a condo with our own barbecue and jacuzzi on the roof. Hugs and love to all my dearest:)

Weekend on Russian River and Andy's Triatlon

Image
Hey there, this weekend was very special. First, Andy took part in Triatlon race and a bg marathon was held in SF along the Golden Gate Bridge. Second, we went to the Russian River where Olia's friend Jennifer has got a cabin - a small wooden house on the River in the Red Wood forest. We call such cabins 'dacha'. Goapa, the doggy, started swimming there for the first time! It was funny. Have a look at some pics and video. Love and hugs! http://youtu.be/y93Qt9wZsTg

Half-Moon Bay

Image
Hey there, today we've driven to the Half- Moon Bay and then to the Gillroy Outlet for shopping. It was a long drive along freeways and winding roads. But it was worth doing. We enjoyed every moment of that. Have a look at SE pics:))

Weekend at a Mystery Spot and Monterey Bay

Image
Hey there. Olia, Andy, Yana and both of us - Slava and me drove to the Mystery Spot place near Santa Cruz and after that we stayed at the Hayatt hotel in Monterey city. In the morning we went to the b iggest   in the world M onterey Marine Life Aquarium. Both sights were amazing. Mystery Spot is a small place in the forest with abnormal gravitation and magnetic field, which makes you feel dizzy. For example, balls roll from  down the surface to upwards. Short people look tall, you stand straight but it looks as if you fall!! So it's worth visiting. Have a look at some pics. Love to all:))
