We will tell you about the diversity of belarusian cuisine. The recipe for this cheesecake was found in the book of radivilovsky recipes. Translated to our employees from polish, now we can use it to treat everyone to this cheesecake. According to the guest, the neosvizh cutlet is not a cutlet at all, it is equated to fried meat, all because it is made from minced pork. Lets dive into holiday culinary traditions. And kulich, of course, is baked, only here, in this area, its not called kulich. If there are easter cakes all over the world three traditional bakings of bread and chatyrs hanging loafs are among the elements of the nonmattary cultural decline of belarus. Good afternoon, my name is firasalum, i came from syria to belarus, now i live and work in minsk. I came from syria, although i myself was born in kuwait, its 50 there, and we know the soviet union is snow, frost, and so on, so i came here, yes, it was, lets say, strange for me to see, i remember , arrived in october and belarus was all covered. I came to belarus from syria, i came here to study, however, my father sent me here to become programmer, but i didnt like it, and i didnt know that in belarus there was a specialty called International Relations, as i found out, i called my dad, ill say, dad, please let me study. At the faculty of International Relations, and he agreed, he says son, do what you want, the main thing is to get a good education. Unfortunately, at that time i knew little and didnt know anything at all, except that my brother studied here, and i didnt even know a single word, but i just knew that in belarus they eat a lot of potatoes, a lot of potatoes, so they eat, thats it for me. Was the first thing i learned about belarus, when i came here, i was really scared to go, i came to a young, foreign country, and well, lets just say, you know, after the collapse of the ussr, the situation in all the republics was unstable, so we we were very afraid, worried, would they, for example, interfere with our lives . It was completely different, maybe, well, i was lucky, at least, ive still been living in belarus for 25 years, yes, no one perceived me as a stranger, in fact, on the contrary, when we found out that im from siri right away treated me, everyone, tolerant, peaceful, supportive, oh, what a great fellow you are, you give. From my parents, how are you here, how do you like it here, that is, in this regard, i felt very comfortable here, in fact, everyone knows, especially those who come here, they know about the beauty of minsk, as for me, i like everything here, but uh, my favorite place is this is nature, i am good friends with nature, vanya, russian vanya, yes, uh, my favorite job is the faculty of International Relations, training and home, these are my Favorite Places when students come to a foreign country and not speak the language of the country, this presents difficulties for any person, especially for students, and as you know, in syria we only study english, french and arabic, that is, i didnt know a single. Word in russian, it was very difficult, the russian language is not one of the simplest, easiest languages, i would say, thanks to our teacher, if my memory serves me correctly, not to evgenievna, firstly, a wonderful person and a wonderful teacher, she taught us russian, scolded us in a good way, when we didnt do homework assignments or when we talked. In arabic, here in russian only, it helped us a lot, believe me, after a while, yes, we all spoke russian, my father wanted to send me to australia, we have a lot of there are many relatives, my mother was very afraid to let me go there, because it was far away, she said no, im going to my brother, ill be calmer there, especially since hes been studying for 2 years and responds positively highly. About belarus, i wont worry as much as if you go to australia, i learned almost a year, then i went home, came to a new stage, this is a faculty, i entered the inyast, then it was called, now it is called. With mslo, after 5 years i decided to continue, not to stop, i entered the Masters Program at the faculty of International Relations. I thought everything there, my father says no, i need to move on, and indeed, at the beginning of 2006, i applied for graduate school, and my studies lasted 5 years, in 2011 i graduated from graduate school, and it was as if this was the end, the beginning of a new stage. We are located at the faculty of International Relations at the belarusian state university, i work here at the faculty, specifically at the department of International Relations. From 2014 to this day, when i decided to return to siri here permanently, yes, uh, getting a job was not easy, and before working at the faculty of International Relations, i had to work as a translator for a construction company, and until i found out about the vacancy , here there was only 0. 5 per. Thats right, to my surprise, when i found out, i was in germany, uh, when i found out about the vacancy, i called right here, they recognized me because im here i graduated from graduate school, they said yes, firaz, we know you, you know, this is 05, first we need a probationary period, then well see, i left everything, i came here, they hired me, its been 9 years now, you can say, ive been working steadily. Calmly at the department of International Relations, when i came here in 1998, i immediately entered the preparatory faculty, studied there for one year, then at the faculty of translation, in my opinion, 5 years, that is, this is the second level, the third is a masters degree, one and a half years 2 years, i dont remember anymore, and the last one was graduate school, thats it graduated from graduate school. In 2011, when i was hired, i understood that this was not an easy task, i studied here, i know our department, which highly qualified teachers work, and i was really scared that i would not cope with this task and not to let anyone down , what i like about the faculty of International Relations, firstly. The department of International Relations itself, well , the entire faculty in general, i work with a Wonderful Team that provided any support, and thanks to each of them i achieved selfrealization. The second thing i like is communicating with students, because i tell students, you are my friends, and communicating with them is very pleasant, i believe that i not only teach and. Learn from them, because one wise man said , the teacher learns from his students, first of all, as i always say, the most important thing is to be a person, to be a person is to understand people, respect people, put yourself in his or her place, with students i tell them, i consider myself a student, speak freely to me i like it, what i dont like, if its boring, you tell me, take a break and then we can continue, so we understand each other, our students are very strong, i know when i communicate with them, when they ask questions that sometimes i its hard to answer, so my advice to them is, dont beg your abilities, each of you has potential, just put in the effort, everything will be fine, and as i always say, i dont want. You to be the best, but most importantly so that you can be better every day, after every lecture, after every seminar, after every day, that i like my work, that despite the fact that i havent seen my parents for 10 years, but when i am here, i feel that they understand me, accept me, respect me, i respect them very much , very much. We are now in the beguu sports complex, where i play sports here, i believe sport is life, it is strength, it is inspiration, it is getting rid of stress, getting rid of negative energy and so on, in addition to improving health and mood. Ive been doing sports for a long time, especially when i came here to belarus, its accessible here and i can say, its free for us, i used to run, work out in the gym, but the thing is that i used to work out aggressively, as a result of which i tore my back, so now i work out very very carefully, my wife and i really like to play sports, unlike children, you know, now. This is a useful generation, why do you need to play sports, you need to push your children, otherwise, you know, sit at home, play on the computer or tablets, thanks to the union, of course that you can attend classes, a swimming pool, also free of charge with your children, and just once, on saturdays, the children and i come here, i study here, they are on the second floor under supervision. Indeed, we must pay tribute to the belarusian government, it is that you Pay Attention to the structure of the sports complexes, it immediately catches your eye, you even know that around, near our house there is a sports ground, where de. Where children can exercise and so on , in the east there is no such thing, if we dont play sports, yes, well go to hospitals, when we play sports, we will visit hospitals less and spend money on medicines, so the government is doing everything right, i support all the plans of our government. I would like to introduce you to my family, starting with my wife, svetlana vladimirovna, my daughter anna maria, here is my son ilya, my wife, she is belarusian, we met when she was working. I just went to the medical center, played sports there, she was working there, i saw her come up, my plan was to return to syria, work in the foreign ministry, become a diplomat and so on, so i thought, no, i wont be here, when i saw sveta, there was a friend next to me, ommar, i say, ammar, you see this girl, ill. Come up, introduce myself, she will be my wife, he looked at me and said you dont want to, i say, i dont know, youll see, and indeed this is what happened, when we met feras, he had a dream that i was baking bread, i was baking bread, i im kneading the dough, my grandmother puts raisins in this dough, and says knead, knead, it will turn out to be a good pie, yes, that is that is, i finish pressing the meat, put it in the oven, everything turned out, but. Not a very pleasant thing, i tell my mother, she asks, are you sure . I say, inside, yes, why i dont know, i still remember how my mother came here to belarus for the first time, since she went to meet me at the airport, i probably parked the car, that my mother went up to the floor alone, i open the door, well, say hello, the custom there is not quite the same as here, but in any case, she immediately hugged me. Kissed me, went into the house, i thought the east was more closed, but his mother is not at all like that, his family is not like that, but there are five, i say, there are a lot of children in the family, he says, well , yes, five. I have a baby and i would really like my brother to be like my dad. My dad is a very majestic man, because from the very bottom he rose to such heights in his career and work, and he told me that when he was offered a job, at first he didnt want to take it, because he thought that he couldnt, but in the end everything became good, and dad was able to when i told you that i love syrah subconsciously. And belarus deliberately, because belarus gave me everything, then i said full stop, full stop this means education, a new life, but most importantly selfrealization by itself, but most importantly, i think it gave me a family, for me family, home is a temple, and ive been living here for as long as i have 25 years, no one. Asked me a question, what is your religion or your childrens . You know, i lived in kuwait, i lived in syria, i lived in england, i lived in holland, in germany, uh, what i like about belarus is that you can raise your children the way you want. Its easy for a country, you just have to get acquainted with its history and culture. Originally volkovysk stood on the ancient volkov river and it was on this river that the city was located.
