Sitting in the car, observing the sun and the sea, I was reflecting on how time can change a lot and also preserve many things. This lighthouse was built in 1868. If it could speak, it might tell us many stories. At the foot of this lighthouse, there are stories. Today, I will tell you one of them. It's a story about relationships between people. Hello, my name is Linda. As a person born in Algeria but living in Russia, when I arrive in Algeria, the first thing I think about is enjoying the weather here. If you are not familiar with Algeria, you can watch my previous videos. When I come here, the first thing I want to do is go to the sea and swim. I come to sunbathe and also swim; I really like swimming. We usually come with the family in the morning, around 8 or 9 am, because there are fewer people at that time. I love this beach.

The landscape here is very beautiful. There is the sea, the Mediterranean Sea, and mountains. I can also go to the park for cheap ice cream. Can you imagine? How much does this ice cream cost? 50 dinars for one ice cream, 50 dinars, which is 1.5 yuan. It's so cheap. Also, there is my cousin here, we are walking around the area now. At the end of the day, many families are waiting for this time to go out for a walk because the weather is very suitable for it now. We see that many people are having a good time here. You can see many boats here because in the evening many fishermen return from the sea. They park their boats here. Here we can also see street snacks. I think it should be delicious. The most famous snack in Algeria is mhadjeb (Algerian pancakes), many people go crazy for this snack. We have another snack here. It's called Beignet donut. It is a French dessert.

If you have a chance to come to Algeria, you can try this. Here I spent my childhood. But unlike most people, I grew up in the culture of two countries from childhood. My father went to the Soviet Union to study when he was young because at that time the two countries had very good relations. Many Algerians went to study in the Soviet Union, and many Russians worked in Algeria. My parents met in Leningrad, which is now St. Petersburg, then moved to Algeria. My brother and I were born and raised in Algeria. We grew up and were raised in the culture of two countries from childhood. Although my mother is an engineer, it was difficult for foreigners to find work in Algeria, especially women. Therefore, she taught herself how to sew. She is very capable and talented. Besides sewing for others on request, I remember all the clothes I wore when I was little.

My mother used to sew clothes for me herself. There is a high demand for custom-made clothes here, especially for weddings. According to tradition, the bride at a wedding should change outfits four to five times. That's why there is a high demand for wedding attire. That's why you can see sewing shops everywhere selling everything needed for sewing because custom-made clothing is usually considered to have better quality than store-bought, and sometimes even cheaper. Custom-made clothes in Algeria can be afforded not only by wealthy people. It's sometimes not easy for my mom to live abroad, but she has learned to adapt. After retiring, my mom doesn't like to be idle. In our garden, she grows all kinds of fruits that she loves and she enjoys animals. That's why we always have cats at home. Also, last year we got some chickens, so now there is almost no need to buy fruits and eggs.

And of course, she loves coffee. She loves espresso. That's why she makes coffee in a cezve herself every day. Mom is busy with chores every day, and life is measured and calm. But such calmness was not always present in life. Mixed marriages are not easy - cultural differences, ideological differences, language barrier, work, life, money. Certainly, there will be all sorts of contradictions. For example, between Russian relatives and close ones. They maintain a certain distance, but here, this distance is almost nonexistent. In other words, your relatives, a family of four, can suddenly come to visit you and stay with you for a few days or weeks. And you take on the responsibility of providing them with all their daily needs. In particular, mom is responsible for cooking and cleaning the house. So, because of this cultural difference, misunderstandings may arise with my parents. Of course, this is just one example.

There is still a security issue, although Algeria is relatively safe at the moment, but in the 1990s, there was disorder here. It was especially unsafe for foreigners. The worst part was terrorism. Even my school was bombed. I will never forget that day. The sound of the bomb explosion is still in my head. There definitely were, I think, when moving to another country, everyone faces these difficulties and goes through a period of adaptation. Well, everyone surely has their own experience. Probably, the women who moved here and immediately found a job had an easier time during this period. For others, it might be a bit more difficult. It happened, but in the end, we all still adapted, merged into this life, and gradually got used to it. Of course, at first, all of this was somehow irritating. We compared, got upset, something somewhere really didn't like, but we got used to it.

Was there a desire to leave? I think the desire to leave arose in everyone, especially in the first year, the second year. When getting used to this country passed, is there still this desire now? No, now it doesn't arise at all, there is no desire to move anywhere anymore. But in the beginning, probably wanted to return home, I think, it was pulling back, not to another country, but back home. But in the end, it passed, it passed. Those who wanted to leave, they left, they left more in the 90s. When this difficult period was in the 90s, what advice can be given to those who moved and are going through a period of adaptation and difficulties? Probably, make a certain decision right away or live and go through all the stages of difficulty, or probably decide then and eventually leave. Because there should be no doubts, I think so. Well, there are difficulties, of course, but a person adapts quickly to everything, it may be painful at first, but it passes.

So, you just need time, as time will solve everything, and over the years, you get used to things in a different way. So, patience, patience, understanding will probably come somewhere. Everything will come. Everything will be restored. When I look at my parents today, everything is fine with them. But their path was not easy; they both overcame difficulties together. Each of them faced certain pressure and stress, each sacrificed a lot. In fact, there are many such marriages here. The other day we went to visit the friends of my parents, Tatyana and Irina, they are all Russian. Married to an Algerian. Some stayed here, some decided to return to Russia. Today they all gathered here. Due to safety concerns, Aunt Irina and her family returned to Russia long ago. In the last 27 years, she returned to Algeria for the first time, to the house where they lived 27 years ago.

Here they are remembering the past together. This is Aunt Tanya. She is from St. Petersburg. Together with her family, they decided to live in Algeria. St. Petersburg is a cultural center of Russia. That's why Aunt Tanya loves art very much. And not only her. Her son also loves art. He graduated from the Algerian Academy of Fine Arts. He is starting his own business making ceramic tiles. They had such a fun time together that day. Opportunities to gather together are not so many.

린다의 알제리 생활에 대한 소회

알제리에서 태어난 러시아 거주자 린다 씨는 알제리의 날씨와 아름다운 풍경에 대한 애정을 공유합니다.

그녀는 지중해에서 수영을 즐기고 해변에서 가족과 함께 보내는 시간을 소중히 여깁니다.

또한 린다 씨는 마드제브와 베이네 도넛과 같은 저렴하고 맛있는 현지 간식을 소개하며, 저녁에 산책하는 어부들과 가족들의 활동을 관찰합니다.

이중 문화 환경에서 성장하기: 개인적인 이야기

알제리와 러시아 문화 모두에서 자란 독특한 어린 시절은 두 나라 사이의 강한 역사적 관계의 결과입니다.

어려운 고용 환경으로 인해 화자의 어머니는 독학으로 재봉사가 되었고, 특히 결혼식용 맞춤복에 대한 높은 수요를 충족하기 위해 재봉사가 되었습니다.

이 이야기는 또한 화자 어머니의 적응력과 은퇴 후 정원 가꾸기부터 동물 키우기까지 활동적인 라이프스타일을 강조합니다.

혼합 결혼 생활에서의 도전과 적응

문화적 차이에 적응하고 러시아에서 온 친척을 맞이하다 보면 일상 생활에서 오해와 어려움을 겪을 수 있습니다.

화자는 1990년대 알제리에서 살면서 테러를 비롯한 안보 문제에도 직면했습니다.

어려움에도 불구하고 화자와 가족은 결국 새로운 삶에 적응하고 통합하는 과정을 성공적으로 마쳤습니다.

90년대 어려운 시기에는 출국하려는 욕구가 강했지만 그 이후 몇 년 동안 감소했습니다.

새로운 나라에서 적응과 어려움을 겪는 사람들은 적응을 위해 시간과 인내가 중요하므로 체류 또는 출국을 명확하게 결정하는 것이 좋습니다.

알제리인과 결혼한 많은 러시아인들은 안전 문제로 인해 러시아로 돌아가는 것을 선택한 반면, 일부는 남아있기로 결정하는 등 압박에 직면했습니다.
