International Students Testimonials

Far Eastern Federal University

I wished to swim after classes, so it's turned out to be

My acquaintance with Russia began with Vladivostok. When I was choosing a university, I read a lot of information on the Internet, I looked at photos, and, of course, I was attracted by the sea. I wished to swim after classes. So it's turned out to be, now every Sunday we go swimming with a friend, and in the winter as well! Probably, every international student who leans Russian would say that it is hard. It is not like other languages, it has many exceptions and cases, which are difficult to remember. That's why I started training at the preparatory department, and nothing is impossible. Now I am studying and listening to lectures in Russian.

I have a lot of friends here. I like it so much that I can communicate with Indians, Colombians, Vietnamese, and Chinese: different languages are heard everywhere and we communicate with each other in Russian. I walk along the campus, come into the academic building, and keep saying “Hi!” to everyone. My friends and acquaintances look at photos from FEFU and note that the girls are very beautiful here. They also would like to come to Vladivostok. I dream of being successful in the profession. Food biotechnology is a very promising area. I'm still at the very beginning of the path, in the first year of study. I am sure that I will have many interesting discoveries in the future.
