Foreign students in Kulchum
Этот заезд немного необычный: иностранные студенты приехали не просто отдыхать - каждый день в специально оборудованных помещениях идет непрерывный учебный процесс. Несмотря на окружающее великолепие и естественное желание отдохнуть в таком прекрасном месте, студенты с еще большим энтузиазмом погружаются в изучение русского языка – ведь впереди сложный выпускной экзамен, по результатам которого ты или попадешь в один из выбранных вузов России, или поедешь с позором домой. 
Конечно, учёба занимала много времени, но ребята активно принимали участие и в общественной жизни: готовили номера и презентации своих стран к фестивалю « Дружба народов» - специально на этот фестиваль приезжала начальник РЦТ Галлямова Нурия Шайхразиевна, готовились к поэтическому вечеру, посвященному Дню рождения А. С. Пушкина, и многое другое. 
Несмотря на плохую погоду в течение многих дней, большую часть свободного от учебы времени все проводили на свежем воздухе: играли в футбол, волейбол, бадминтон, гуляли, общались на русском языке, пели под гитару песни на разных языках вместе со студентами других факультетов. May 29.2017… Two gazelles full of students and suitcases… Songs, bright sun, warmth…
Everyone was expecting, but what they saw exceeded all expectations: the indescribable beauty of nature - birch grove, green grass, clear, blue, endless sky - a delicious and hearty lunch, which can only be at mom's house, cozy houses, volleyball, football, gazebos …
For 10 days, foreign students of the preparatory department of the Regional Center for Testing Citizens of Foreign Countries of the Bashkir State University, together with teachers, spent at the Kulchum sports and recreation base in the Ermekeyevsky district of Bashkortostan, in one of the most picturesque places in the Republic.
This race a bit unusual: foreign students came not just to relax - every day in specially equipped rooms there is a continuous learning process. Despite the surrounding magnificence and the natural desire to relax in such a beautiful place, students plunge into the study of the Russian language with even greater enthusiasm - after all, a difficult final exam is ahead, according to the results of which you will either get into one of the selected universities in Russia, or go home in disgrace.
Of course, studying took for a long time, but the guys actively took part in public life: they prepared performances and presentations of their countries for the Friendship of Peoples festival - the head of the RCT Galliamova Nuriya Shaykhrazievna came especially to this festival, they prepared for a poetic evening dedicated to the birthday of A. S. Pushkin , and much more.
Despite bad weather for many days, most of the free time from study was spent outdoors: playing football, volleyball, badminton, walking, talking in Russian, singing songs in different languages with the guitar along with students from other faculties.
The last day was both sad and fun. It's fun and good that in such a short time everyone became very friendly, made new friends, learned a lot about Russia, Russian nature, and traditions. Now students know what is Russian cuisine and Russian hospitality, Russian bath.
And it was sad that time flew by so quickly. Everyone, without exception, would like to return to Kulchum once again to inhale such clean air once again, admire the beautiful sky and unforgettable landscapes of our Bashkir nature.
