Winner of 1st Prize
Dasha Boussourina
School 328, St Petersburg, Russia
Scotland seemed to me to be such a remote country and it is wonderful that the Pushkin Prizes give the chance to young people not only to reveal their mind and thoughts by writing, but also to visit a new unknown country.
I love visiting theatres, museums, walking along the embankments of the Neva River. I adore the wonderful sights of the monuments. It is so amazing to walk along the streets where our famous writers such as A S Pushkin, N V Gogol and F M Dostoyevsky strolled during the White Nights.
I have different interests. Among them are: writing, reading, listening to music. I like to read. Most of all I like classic literature of the XIX Century, such writers as A S Pushkin, Lermontov and many others. My favourite book is Evgeny Onegin. I am good at swimming and playing badminton. Every morning I go jogging. My family is my mother, two grandmothers, two sisters, two brothers, one cousin and one niece. We are all good friends, though sometimes we have arguments.
