“The festival was an incredible occasion for me! During the event, the buildings of Sirius University, the most modern educational institution in Russia, turned into a meeting place for young people from all over the world. There was an exhibition of works by participants in the Tavrida Art project, stands from all regions of the country and large industrial and scientific companies. I attended many educational events and creative meetings with famous people, attended workshops on artificial intelligence, financial technology, and visited the “Russia in Miniature” exhibition".

“What I remember most is running the World Youth City. Each delegation nominated its best representative in the field of ecology, science, education, sports, art, charity, tourism, IT, social activities and entrepreneurship. In total, about 3,000 applications were submitted from 180 countries, but only the best 50 became participants. Team building games and trainings were conducted on the topic “From public conversation to preparing an election campaign program.” I was selected by a delegation from Bangladesh to participate in the city's youth governance program. It was a very meaningful experience for me.”

“I participated in the Peace Youth March with other representatives from China. We marched with the flag of our country and showed traditional Chinese culture to the festival participants, and then sang and danced together in the center of the Youth City.”

“We have been arranging Maslenitsa for several years now. The traditional holiday brings joy and fun to everyone. And we are happy that the number of participants is increasing every year,” said Nguyen Thi Thu Dat, the director of the Hanoi branch.

“I have warmest feelings about today’s holiday! Workshops on creating spring dolls and outdoor games were held. And the brightest moment is the traditional burning of the Maslenitsa straw doll, which symbolizes the passing of winter.”

“It was a lot of fun, everyone really enjoyed the games, competitions, and dancing. I hope that next year I will celebrate Maslenitsa in Russia since I plan to study there.”

“It is a great honor for us to host you here, at Pushkin Institute! I am very glad that I was able to introduce you to the way our university lives in its regular working environment. As an acting teacher, I know how important continuous professional development is, and I support the idea of joint teacher internships and the exchange of scientific knowledge. I am sure that we will be able to share our experience in teaching the Russian language and literature with a combination of full-time and distance learning, using various effective methods,” noted Natalia Sergeevna.

“It is a great honor for us to host you at Pushkin Institute! Guangdong University solves the most important scientific problems of the state and the world in general, and we are very glad to contribute to your work. Cooperation with the People's Republic of China is now rapidly developing: 2024-2025 have been declared cross-years in the cultural sphere of Russia and China. Our institute currently has over 500 Chinese students who are incredibly hardworking and dedicated. They come not only to learn Russian, but also to make a scientific career. Thus, we are building very close ties with universities in China,” noted Natalia Sergeevna.

“Due to your abilities and hard work, you won a difficult competition - the Russian Language Olympiad. I am very pleased that you see your future together with our country. It is great that you will speak Russian and know our culture and history. Russia actively cooperates with Vietnam, and after graduation you will definitely find a good job. All you need now is to continue studying. You have already achieved your first victories. I wish you all the best!”, - noted Konstantin Ilyich.

“This is the first time I lived away from home and my parents, but I liked it. Moscow is a very beautiful city! Time flew so quickly! The internship was an interesting experience for me: I learned a lot about the Russian language, cuisine, music and made friends with people from different countries. Previously, I could not imagine that I would visit Russia and that the trip would make such a deep impression on me. I will never forget her. I hope that I can visit Russia again in the future. Maybe I will study at university here or travel to different cities.”
