Rosero Vallejo Mari Lurdes, Ecuador. Geoecology PhD student

In the beginning, Russians seemed cold to me compared with Latin America, but later I realized that Russians are faithful and sincere people when they give you their friendship.

I like Moscow. But my favorite place in Russia is Murmansk. In Murmansk, I could observe the Polar Day, and, in winter, the northern lights. That’s incredible!

The most difficult thing was the language, but I practice it every day and try to improve myself.

In my free time, I like cooking, taking photos, and traveling.
