Сказка о России на английском языке Once upon a time,Once a young man from America decided to meet his a pen-friend from Russia. The American's name was Jordan Margela, and his friend from Russia Andrey Tikhonov. One day they decided to make a video call. They talked about different things and the dialogue went after Jordan's trip to Russia. Jordan loved traveling, he really wanted to visit Russia thanks to its deep culture, and also because his close friend was waiting for him there. They agreed that Jordan would still visit his friend's homeland, but the American was sad that he simply could not afford such travel expenses. Jordan felt depressed after this conversation and decided to go to bed. Waking up the next morning, the guy felt something strange and unfamiliar, he was not in his room. The lungs were piercing the aroma of freshly brewed coffee. After getting out of bed, he decided to go to the door to leave an unfamiliar place as soon as possible, but at that moment his friend Andrei entered the room. Jordan couldn't believe his eyes, he didn't believe what was happening, it seemed to him a dream, but the feelings were in reality. "Are you awake yet?" asked Andrey with a smile on his face. Jordan didn't know what to answer. The young men went to the kitchen. There was a plate filled with interesting pastries on the table. "What is it?" asked Jordan. "Oh, it's a traditional dish of pancakes. They are prepared for Maslenitsa. Maslenitsa is a pagan holiday, so we spend the winter and meet spring." After breakfast, the friends went outside. There was a fair on the main square. People sold various wood products, knitted socks and scarves, gingerbread and colorful home decorations. "Oh! Look, there's smoke coming from small houses," said Jordan. "This is a bath, do you want to go there?" suggested Andrey. They ended up in this room. "It's very hot here," said the foreigner. "This place is very loved by the Russian people, here you can warm up and wash, there has long been a tradition: a bathhouse is drowned for a guest after a long journey," said Andrey. Going into the steam room, a sharp smell of pine needles hit his nose and began to feel dizzy. Jordan was not used to such temperature changes and lost consciousness. After a while, the guy came to his senses. Opening his eyes, he saw the blue sky, somewhere in the distance you could hear the laughing of horses and the cries of people. "Where am I," Jordan thought. A man approached him. He helped him get up and asked, "It's okay, how did you get here?" Jordan didn't understand anything, only a moment ago he was having fun with his friend, and now... "Can I help you with anything?" the stranger insisted. "I don't know how I got here, I need to find my friend, I don't understand where I am at all," Jordan replied frightened. Then the man took him by the hand and took him somewhere. They passed by villages, forests and rivers, it seemed that it would never end. Finally, the wanderers stopped. There was a large and old building in front of them. "You're going further and further yourself," said the travel companion. Jordan was left alone. It was already dark, the whistle of the cold wind was frightening. Gathering his courage, he knocked on the door. A little hunched old woman opened it to him. Here Jordan did not get confused and stretched out his hand. "You're a fool, why are you pulling your hand, you don't shake your hand through the threshold, it's a bad omen," the old woman said rudely. The woman invited an uninvited guest to the house. The hut is old, the floor squeaks, a web in the corner, smells of herbs and smoke. "Why did you like it?" the woman asked. "You see..." Jordan began. The old woman lit a candle and began to whisper something. The walls of the house shook and the young man got goosebumps. After extinguishing the candle, the woman began to say: "I know what happened, I can help you, but... you will have 3 days to complete all the tasks, otherwise you will stay here forever." Jordan was very scared, but he wanted to find a friend the most. The
