Deciding to share my thoughts and point of view here, I first turned to the main source of news and rumors—THE INTERNET... in other words, I googled it)))

If I'm being honest, I was sure I'd see headlines like: flying trains, time travel, alien enslavement... but alas! Here is what I saw: The US will be able to strike almost any object in Russia from space by 2030, World War III is just around the corner, a wave of new economic crises!!! This is something to think about....

Lately, people have become so obsessed with each other... this eternal struggle for leadership, eternal wars, money, terrorism..

I would like to dream and imagine a fairytale world in 2029, but I don't think it will be that way. Of course, much can change; views, leaders, and states can change..

And what am I actually leading to... to the fact that we need to make our world better, no matter what... and I believe that the exchange of traditions, experience, languages, and culture is very important... we need to bring people closer together... because it is people who are the creators of everything, both bad and good... the currently existing student exchange programs play a big role in this.. and I would like to say a HUGE THANK YOU for that!!

I won't predict what will happen to the world and people.. I just want to say that we need to hope, believe, and try so that everything will be fine!!!

I want to wish EXCHANGE centers further development in all directions!!!

An absolute optimist...
