  Dear Bedri,
  Thanks for the poetic message. Now I feel like I need to post more pictures of Altay Mountains. I have taken a good look at those pictures that you added to pictures on your EC page.
  
  The Earth is such a beautiful place and the gift of life is precious. :)

  Dear Bedri,
  I read your messages. thanks for telling more about your paintings and teaching.
  Oh, you know, I would like to just be a tutor, because the groups I teach at school are sometimes too big in number for effective language teaching/learning. 12-15 students in one group. It's terrible, but I learned to manage, you know.
  
  Oh, is not it amazing that we can communicate so fast, even though our countries are so different in climate and culture? I love to learn about other cultures. It's wonderful.
  
  I will post a picture of Biysk in snow. We actually think it's too much of a good thing. Just too much snow. Tired of winter.
  Okay. have a nice day! It's good to exchange messages!

  Oh, those pictures are super, Bedri! I didn't realize they were made from sand. I was wondering about the technique.
  I am speechless. Please accept my compliments! Very impressive works both in form and the message!
  
  As for the teaching vocation, it is very noble. Teachers should be much appreciated both in a big city and in a small town.
  Biysk, where I live, is a small town on Russian scale. The population is 250 000 people.
  
  I am teaching students aged 15 through 19. What is the age of students do you teach? I have noticed a very neat PPP slide on negatives at one of the photos you posted. Looks like you are teaching adults or teenagers. Did I guess it right?

  Greetings from snowy Siberia, Bedri!
  It is so nice to welcome another colleague here in EC!
  This page is wonderful, I certainly enjoy it.

  Have a nice day!
