Hahhahahah I think our next "objective" will be Poland, so be careful if you go there in about 4 years ;). Economy in Spain is still recovering from 2008 construction crisis, so it is already vaccinated of us. You can come here whenever you want :D.

Thanks for the "your English is wonderful" part, wasn't very confident while writing it. And...

a)would you prefer your parents stayed in Russia then?

Answer: I guess that if I was raised there I wouldn't mind, but since I experiencied 3 different cultural views, I appreciate my present "open-mindness" and the experiences I live, which would have been censored in Russia.

b) What languages do you speak?

Answer: I speak and think in Spanish mostly. English comes with my digital part mostly, as it is spoken in most of the media I consume. Also I read and write on "Valencian", which is a local language here were I live.

c) however, your dad had to help you with Russian?

Answer: They only taught me to read the alphabet when I was 3 years old. The spoken part I learned it by speaking with them my whole life and corrected a bit my accent by speaking with russian people I met throughout my life. In Argentina and here we were mostly secluded from russian interference so the russian I speak is partially mixed with spanish.

d) Don't you speak Russian at home?

Answer: Yep, I do. We only speak in russian since it's the language they are most comfortable with.

Not so massive compared to a book, and I hope so now knowing some have read it.

Thank you for reading it! Now it doesn't affect my daily life, knowing that now I live legally, but it's a cool story that I can tell when meeting people. (Really burn that cartridge off). At bars no one asked me for an ID since... I was 15 due to my height, and in Spain you can legally drink when you turn 18.

Funny story is, by mistake also my "medic card" is a pensionary one, and I can't marry or travel anyone, but not planning on doing it anytime soon.

And my accent is kind of a mess too because I adapt really fast to my envirorment, that much so that at a music festival I went with people with a funny accent of a town nearby and ended speaking like them in 5 hours. But I have a "linguistic lazyness" in spanish, and here they differentiate S, Z and C sounds, and I pronounce them all as S (like in latin america spanish), and I was born with my tongue glued to my palate, so I pronounce the R like germans/french do. So, kind of a messy french/german spaniard that lived in south america for a while.

Thank you :)
