Hi Patrick,
Thanks for your email. It was great to hear from you!
I'm most proud of our victory in the Great Patriotic War. Millions of people fought and worked together to defend our country, and I think it shows how strong and united we can be. As for a historical person, I would choose Peter the Great. He modernised Russia, built a new capital and cared about education and science.
I think it's important to know the history of your country because it helps us understand who we are and not repeat mistakes of the past.
It's wonderful that you help environmental organisations during the holidays! What exactly do you do there? How did you find these organisations? Can anyone join them, or do you need special experience?
Write back soon!
Best wishes,
Anna
