My name is Elena. No, I'm not deaf, but I'm the mother of a deaf daughter. And for 26 years now, I have been like a link between her and the world. We are just one family, and we would like to share our successes and difficulties with you. But not only that! We will travel around Russia and show, tell about all the interesting things that we will meet on our way! Train, boat, bus - different types of transport, different cities...Also, I want to repeat the dactyl alphabet, because I am a sign language teacher. If anyone is interested, they can teach with me, because it's easy!
