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, it’s 50° there, and we know the soviet union is snow, frost, and... so on, so i came

here, yes, it was, let’s say, strange for me to see, i remember i arrived in october and belarus was all covered with snow, i came to belarus from syria, i came here to study, however, my father sent me here to become a programmer. but i didn’t like it, and i didn’t know that there was a specialty in belarus called international relations, as i found out, i called my dad, i’ll 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, then i i knew little and didn’t know anything at all , except that... that my brother studied here,

and i didn’t even know a single word, but i just knew that belarusians eat a lot of potatoes, a lot of potatoes, so they eat, so for me it was the first thing i learned about belarus when i came here, really i was scared to go, i came to a young, foreign country, and well... let's put it this way , you see, after the collapse of the ussr the situation was unstable in all the republics, so we were very afraid, worried whether, for example, they would interfere with our life , it was completely different, maybe, well, i was lucky , at least, i’ve 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... i from siri they immediately treated me,

everyone was tolerant, peaceful, supportive, oh, what a great guy you are, from my parents, how are you doing here, somehow, in this regard, i felt very comfortable here, in fact, everyone knows, especially those who come here, they know about the beauty of minsk. for me, i like everything here, but my favorite places are nature, i am good friends with nature, a bathhouse, a russian bathhouse, yes, my favorite job is the faculty of international relations, training and home, these are my favorite places when students come... to a 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 we study only english, french and arabic, that is, i didn’t know a single word in russian, it was very difficult, russian is not one of the simplest, easiest languages, i would say, thanks to our teacher, if my memory serves me right, nina evgenievna , firstly, is a wonderful person and a wonderful teacher, she taught us russian, scolded us in a good way when we didn’t do our homework or when we spoke arabic, here only in russian, this helped us a lot, very, believe me, after a while, yes, we all started speaking russian, my father wanted to send me to australia, we have a lot of russian there. mom

was very afraid to let me go there, because it was far away, she said: no, i’m going to my brother, i’ll be calmer there, especially since he’s been studying for 2 years already. belarus responds positively, i won’t worry as much as if you go to australia, i studied for almost a year, then i went home, came to a new stage, this faculty entered inyaas. when it was called, now it is called mglo, after 5 years i decided continue, don’t stop , i entered the master’s program at the faculty of international relations, that’s all i thought about, my father says no, we need to continue, 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 it was the end of the beginning of a new stage. you can accomplish a lot in 24 hours, and even more in 7 days. in our project you will learn about key dates and events in the country and the world

that happened during the week in just 20 minutes. there will be time for entertainment, exciting projects that will surprise and lift your spirits. travel and a healthy lifestyle, all this and more in the weekly project ether 24/7. watch on our tv channel every friday evening. we will introduce you to belarusian enterprises and the outstanding results of their work. our company is a very unique enterprise in its own way. we are the only company. in a country that works on a full cycle, we need to start with the thread, so that there is quality of the thread, this is a collection of classicism, baroque and various of these trends, these people from generation to generation passed on their professionalism, their attitude to this matter,

then we will continue to produce this furniture, an approach to business that everyone should strive for, my work for me...

at the university, i work here at the faculty, specifically at the department of international relationship from 2014 to this day, when i decided to return here permanently with siri, yes, it was not easy to get a job, and before working at the faculty of international relations i had to work as a translator, a construction company and... until i found out about vacancy, it was only 05 here, probably to my surprise when i found out, i was in germany, when i found out about the vacancy, i called right here, they recognized me because i

graduated from graduate school here, they said yes firas, we know you, but you see, this is 05, first we need a trial period, then we’ll see, i gave up everything, everything. i came here, they hired me , for 9 years now, one might say, i have been working steadily, calmly, at the department of international relations, when i came here in 1998... in the eighth year i immediately entered the preparatory faculty, and studied there alone year, then at the faculty of translation, in my opinion 5 years, that is, this is the second stage, the third is a master’s degree, one and a half to 2 years, i don’t remember, the last one was graduate school, i just finished graduate school in 2011, when i was accepted for work, i understood that it was not easy. task, i studied here, i know our department, which highly

qualified teachers work, and i was really scared that i wouldn’t be able to cope with this task and so as not to let anyone down, what i like at the faculty of international relations, firstly, the department itself international, but in general the entire faculty , i work with for... my 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 , like what you don’t like, if you’re bored, you tell me, we’ll take a re-riff, and we can continue later, so we understand each other, ours... are very strong , i know when i communicate with them, when they ask questions that are sometimes hard for me to answer, so my advice to them is, don't beg your abilities, each of you has potential, just put in the effort, everything will be fine, and as i said always, i don't want you to be the best, but the most important thing is that you are better every day, after every lecture, after... that i like my

work, that despite the fact that i haven’t seen my parents for 10 years, but when i’m here, i i feel that they understand me, accept me, respect me, i respect them very much, very much. we are now at the bgo sports complex, where i play sports here, i believe sport is life, it is strength, it is inspiration, it is relief from stress.

my wife and i really like to play sports, unlike children , you see, now this generation is useful, why do you need to play sports, you need to push your children, otherwise, you know, sit at home, play on the computer or tablet, thanks to the trade union, of course, that you can attend classes, the pool is also free with children, and how one time, this is on saturdays, my children and i... come here, i study here, they are on the second floor under supervision,

we really must give credit to the belarusian government for paying attention to the structure of sports and sports complexes, this immediately wakes up in...

24. a proper morning should begin with a proper breakfast. tell me, what are you and i going to cook today? today you and i will prepare a rather unusual breakfast, it will be in an asian style, it will be spring rolls with a sea cocktail. tell us what we're having for breakfast today, the champion? and today we will have pink salmon meatballs with salad. this will be an unusual breakfast, very tasty. can't wait to get started. we will help you choose products to make your first meal tasty and healthy. we choose greens. we need spinach. know that you should only purchase fresh, elastic leaves of a bright green color. the color of beans depends solely on the variety. the pod itself should be intact without any dent marks

. let's not forget about invigorating exercises. we become. into the castle, lift up, we lean forward, our knees are straight, we can bend our back a little, we lean down, again we also keep our knees straight, our feet are completely on the floor, we rise up, watch the breakfast of the champion program on our tv channel. i want to introduce you to my family, here ’s my wife, svetlana vladimirovna, my daughter anna maria, here’s my son ilya, my

wife, she’s belarusian, we met when she was working. my plan was to return to syria, work in the foreign ministry, become a diplomat and so on, so i thought, no, i won’t be here when i saw sveta, my friend ammar was next to me, i say, amar, do you see this girl? uh, i ’ll come up and introduce myself, she will be my wife, he looked at me and said: so you are the grooms, i say, i don’t know, you will see, and indeed that’s what happened, when we met feras, he had a dream about that i bake bread, i bake bread, i knead the dough, my grandmother pours raisins into this dough, and says knead, knead,

it will turn out to be a good pie, yes, that is - that is, i finish kneading, that’s it, put it in the oven, all. it worked out, but i thought it was a sign some kind, because well , it can’t be any other way, that is, that’s it, take good bread, my mother knows me better than anyone and knows that i have a difficult character, that is, well, complex, and she was afraid that...
