Brief

Ivan Petrovich: A grandfather who loves nature Ivan Petrovich was born in 1958 in a small village in the north of Russia, surrounded by dense pine forests. From childhood, his life was closely connected with nature. He spent his days playing in the forest, helping his parents with the vegetable garden and watching the birds that nested in old hollow trees.Ivan Petrovich was an inquisitive boy. He loved to read, but books were rare in his village. His grandfather, a former teacher, often read aloud to him, telling stories about distant lands, brave travelers and wonders of nature.After school, Ivan Petrovich moved to the city, but his love for nature remained with him. He worked as an engineer, but every weekend he tried to get out into nature. He loved to wander through the forest, pick mushrooms and berries, and watch the life of animals.Ivan Petrovich was the life of the party. He loved to have picnics in nature with his family and friends. They grilled shashlik, sang songs with a guitar, played volleyball and simply enjoyed the fresh air and communication.Ivan Petrovich's special hobby was reading in nature. He would take books with him, sit down in a clearing under an old oak tree and immerse himself in the world of literature. He read about travel, history, biology, philosophy - his interest was boundless.It was in nature that he found his beloved life partner. Olga, a sweet and cheerful girl, shared his passion for nature and books. Together they created a family and raised two children, to whom they passed on their love of nature. How did picnics appear in Russia? In our country, people have always loved trips to nature and in the 19th century such meals were very popular, but initially picnics also had an aristocratic character - they were organized by wealthy families. Cooks and waiters were hired for the event. An important rule that everyone should adopt is that after the end of the event, they were sure to clean up all the trash. The mass tradition of going on a picnic appeared among Soviet citizens. Then we also found our signature dish - shashlik. So hot dishes were welcomed and a picnic without a fire is not a picnic. And if you manage to arrange a meal near the river, then freshly caught fish was cooked in fish soup. Picnics were arranged both at their own dachas, and "wild" in nature. How did the tradition of frying kebabs appear in Russia? Shashlik is a traditional dish of nomadic peoples. Hence the tradition: cooking kebabs is a man's business. You get the meat - you feed the family! It is believed that cutting up meat and cooking it on a fire or coals is a continuation of hunting, so in many families, men cook kebabs.Another tradition in Russia associated with kebabs is May Day. During the May holidays, it is customary to go on a picnic to the dacha or at least go to a…

I’m Maria Vittoria

My name is Maria Vittoria, and I’m in my first year of a master’s program in psychology. I have been satisfied with my educational experience at this university over the past three years.  My family represents my safe haven. I have a wonderful relationship with my grandmother, who has encouraged me to pursue my passions. I love painting, sculpting, and sewing with her. This time together not only allows me to engage in something I enjoy, but it also strengthens our bond.  I love animals, especially my dog, who is much more than just a pet to me. I am deeply attached to him, and I am grateful to have found him—not only because my family rescued him from life on the streets, but also because he has saved us in many ways.  In addition to studying, I work. I love being around children, and I decided to do something that wouldn’t feel like a heavy job because it's something I’m passionate about.  In my free time, I love traveling and going dancing. I really enjoy tech house music nights, and I have several DJs that I adore and love to listen to.  My hobby is photography. I enjoy capturing moments that have meaning for me and keeping them together.  mariavittoria.gargano@studenti.unisob.na.it3511616908
