"On the 27th of March of 2015, Yaroslav and I discuss the Earth Mother statues, resembling fat women, in pre-Roman Old Europe. Then, I ask him what genre of literature Tolstoy's writings are, but he does not give a definitive answer. He watched the Lord of the Rings movies in Russian, but he says that he is not a fan of fantasy and they were too long. Those movies have made New Zealand a more famous country, Yaroslav's favourite. I like Lord of the Rings in French."
