Misha Roshal - Fedorov. In the archeological expedition, that year worked very famous archaeologists Kuvyrdin family with children. They came from Moskow. This was not the first time they have come to Moldova for the summer, enjoy the exotic and relax from the noise of the capital. We also had a photographer, whom everyone called Carlusha, it was he who arranged for us a wonderful photoshoot, for which Byrnya violated us all. In our free time, in the evenings, we gathered aroun d the fire and sang Moldavian songs, watched the stars in the dark sky. The Kuvyrdins sang songs very well. One day, in the early morning, our boss left for Chisinau to meet a new guest. When he returned from the car, a person jumped out of the car - not a girl, not a boy. Thin and slender with a huge shock of black curly hair and with huge green eyes. It turned out that this is the son of the famous professor of archeology Georgy Borisovich Fedorov. Misha was a wonderful boy and we enjoyed talking...

Archaeological expedition Moldova. Village Trebuzheny First, I will tell you about the village itself, where the expedition worked. Moldova, in general, is a very picturesque country, and Trebuzhenu is just a wonderful place. Surrounded by hills, the village was a settlement just at the bottom of the bowl. It was surrounded by the river Reut. Already at that time, archaeologists unearthed an ancient monastery in the rocky hills. When you are sitting in the house and working, you could observe with great interest how the sheep, one after another, like a chain, laying their heads under the stomach of the previous one, slowly move up the hill. It was magical. We got up very very early, like archaeologists, but it was not clear to us why it was so early to raise us. At 5 a.m., it’s good to start excavation, before the heat. But sitting and drawing from 5 in the morning was difficult. The expedition leader Pavel Petrovich Byrnya was very strict with us, but we found tricks in...

Sveta Hercesco and Archeological Expedition Sveta Gertsesco studied with me In the same group. She was from Moldova but considered herself a Romanian. Sveta was very warm in communication. I loved her very much, sometimes she was like my mother. Thanks to the Sveta in my life there were trips and participation in archaeological expeditions. It was an unforgettable experience and amazing new acquaintances. The first expedition took place in the summer after completing classes i n the 2nd year. In order to get to the place of the expedition, I bought a train ticket to Chisinau. There I had to catch a bus and drive to the city of Orheev and find the house of Sveta there and then go to the village of Trebuzeny. Everything seemed to be clear. I was, so beautiful, wearing all the available beads on the train, went to Chisinau, absolutely not thinking that the train arrives late in the evening. Of course, the bus station no longer had a single bus - it was too late. And I wa...

College. My friend Lena and the collective farm. We were friends, as you see, not only with fellow students but also students older than us. The communication time was special for everyone during the summer holidays when we were sent to the collective farm to help farmers in harvesting. It was very funny. We were settled in some sort of barracks, girls in some, boys in others. In the morning we, in a big truck, were taken to the field. We harvested mainly grapes, sometimes pi cked tomatoes. At lunch, the car brought us food. I remember very well the taste of hot borsch( red soup) in a metal bowl, we ate it sitting directly on the hot and dusty ground. In the evening we had fun. Often found and bought homemade wine. It was very bad. We drank wine, practically without eating the food, and then the stars in the sky counted. In general, it was fun and reckless. I became friends with Lena Filimonova . She was a tiny and very cheerful girl. Us together with her our friends ca...

Work after graduation Talking about our adventures with Zhenya, I will have to run a little ahead. When we graduated from the Art Colledge, we were distributed in different cities and villages, where we were to become teachers of drawing. I also got a referral to the school of Novgorod-Volynsky district of the Zhytomyr region. I still remember the name of this settlement. I never got there. We were given lifting money in the amount of 50 rubles. We had to use them on the road and o verhead. By September 1, we should have reached your destination. My Zhenya lived in Zhytomyr and therefore my decision was to go to her first. I did not want to work at school. I, like all graduates, dreamed of being an artist. I will never forget the night at her house. I grew up in a city apartment and had no experience living in a private house with an apple orchard. Through the open window, we heard the noise of falling apples and it was real magic. Zhenya and I honestly tried to find ...

Trip to Tallinn (capital of Estonia) with Busya. A day or two before leaving back from Leningrad to Odessa, Zhenya and I went to Tallinn. I remember the train was packed with people and we rode in this crowd. Eugene slept sitting at a table, and I climbed onto the third shelf, where they put the luggage. It’s good that I was the little one and was fit. We arrived in Tallinn early, early in the morning. To go to the city in such a shabby form, after the train we did not dare. S o we decided to put ourselves in order, wash and do makeup. We found ourselves in a park, which, together with a moat filled with water, surrounded the fortress wall of the old city. There we washed. Then they went to the city. Since the time of my first visit, I had a friend in Tallinn - it was Valentina, the friend of my classmate Marina. We came to her and said, that we arrived just for one night, Valya suggested that we stay with her. We had a wonderful walk around the city in the evening, as I re...
